This was a very average property. Fine if it is on at a cheap price, but otherwise you can get much better options in the hotels within a few yards from this property. The lounge area in the apartment I stayed in was, frankly, quite horrible, so I closed the door on it and forgot about it. The bedroom was spartan, but roomy. the bathroom fine, except the glass at the sunk hadn't been cleaned! (ugh). There are no facilities worth mentioning. Overall, very disappointing and not an option I'll choose again.

Our ground-floor flat was clean and spacious in a great location. We only needed a place for one night, but this was ideal.

An OK stay but could be cleaner
I was disappointed that cleanliness was not upto what I would want. There was sweet wrappers and bits of food in the mattress of the sofa bed as we unfolded it, very dusty skirting boards and a Rentokil box at the side of the bed which really put me off. It’s a shame really as the furnishings themselves were very nice and it’s in a very handy location

Misleading photos, better value elsewhere.
Very poor standard of accommodation. The photographs are very misleading. Initially we were unable to access the room because the code we were provided with was incorrect. We waited around on the street for this to be rectified, once it was it was changed again the next day! The room had very little natural light due to being in a basement and the one small window being at the opposite end to the 'living spaces'. The so called kitchen amounted to a microwave stood on a fridge, a kettle, toaster and the crockery, utensils etc in the same cupboard as the hairdryer. The 'kitchen sink' is at the other end of the 'suit', it comprises of a small plastic caddy with sponge, scourer and fairy liquid stood next to the bathroom sink. Bathroom towels were in rags, walls marked and the shower wouldn't drain. For the price there are better locations and much better standard accommodations. Avoid.
