Lodgings of newly-weds, not good (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rooms

'lodgings' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'newly-weds not good' is the wordplay.
'newly-weds' becomes 'grooms'.
'not' suggests deleting specific letters.
'good' becomes 'g' (abbreviation).
'grooms' with 'g' taken out is 'ROOMS'.

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for rooms that I've seen before include "Lodges" , "Indoor spaces" , "Partitioned parts of a building" , "Quarters" , "Lodgings" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
