Great stay! This is our second time staying at these apartments and will return. The lady on reception was fantastic and upgraded us to a super king size bedroom after me explaining I go for surgery Monday and it was a break before then so she tried to make us more comfortable. The staff were very pleasant and polite. The apartment itself was clean and well maintained with all mod cons and everything you need for a comfortable stay. With a central location this is a great base for any visit to Aberdeen, will stay again. Thank you

The hotel was in an ideal location, easy to walk to from the train station and in the right position for all amenities for shopping and entertainment. The apartment was clean and comfortable with all essential items needed. There’s plenty of places to eat and drink and there’s Tesco extra close by if you have forgotten anything. Enjoyed our stay very much and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

Disliked: Communication
Comfortable but dated, the serviced apartments have just enough for your stay. To enter you need to call the reception to open the nondescript and fairly poorly signed black door, which was difficult to find. Location is convenient for exploration, but being directly above BrewDog and across from the casino, I found the rowdy crowd below frequently very noisy around 3am.
