Perfect location for our stay to see family

Pros: Using a key code to enter made us feel very secure, not needing to carry keys with us.Parking space was ideal and area had sensor lights,perfect when returning in the dark.Balcony was great for the summer eve to have a drink.Flat was extremely clean and had everything we needed for a short break.Five min walk up hill to town.

Cons: Flat was on busy main road,very noisy at night,windows were not double glased which might of dulled the noise of traffic- ear plugs a must for light sleepers!

Pros: Good location – in the City center. Good finishing of the apartment. Good communication with the owners. A romantic place – this is an old Victorian building - one can see the wooden beams (in a very good condition) which hold it.

Cons: As I said, the building is romantic and old. But in old times, the quality of life was less than nowadays. That is why the staircases are narrow and steep, the ceiling is low, the sizes of the apartment and the bathroom are small, and the windows are single-glazed. After I pay on Booking.com the owners informed me that I need to pay an additional returnable safety deposit. There was no information on Booking.com about this.

Good location and an enjoyable stay

Pros: My sister and I stayed for 4 nights in apartment B, and it's a good little place in a fabulous location, just a few minutes from the town centre. Parking was so easy, right outside the building, and we liked the coded entry, and didn't mind the stairs! The bedrooms were spacious with very comfortable beds and everything was very clean and welcoming. We loved the Jack & Jill bathroom, apart from the niggle as mentioned below. The main flat area had almost everything we needed and it was a relief to find it nicely aired as there was a heatwave the week we stayed! The traffic noise was pretty high, but we did get used to it and it wasn't an issue overnight so we slept well. Overall, we enjoyed our time here and I would recommend a stay here, especially if a few key issues are resolved.

Cons: The seating definitely needs attention, as the sofa bed isn't comfortable to sit on, very hard after a while and unsupportive. It seems odd that this has been mentioned several times and not been changed as l'm sure overall ratings would improve. The folding chairs are very precarious, not particularly stable and as you pull the seat under you to shuffle forward, you risk trapping your fingers as the seat lifts up and then snaps back into position when you sit down. The light and fan coming on at night when you open the bathroom door is a bit distracting and does wake you up fully, so perhaps an off switch or timer for this would help?

Great town center stay for families.

Pros: The location was excellent, just a short walk to the center of town. Notably on a very steep hill, so not ideal if people struggle with mobility or exercise tolerance. The space was great for a young family with a baby, and the off street parking is perfect. The host was excellent and very attentive to a minor issue we had with the power. They responded within the hour and came out same day to fix it.

Cons: The place is pretty cold and noisy. Heaters are supplied and effective, but the noise is probably due to single glazing in a very busy part of town.

Well equipped flat, close to town centre and the train station

Pros: Conveniently located close to the station and the town centre this apartment has everything we needed for 2 nights stay. We found it very easy to get into apartment and communication with the hosts was seamless.

Cons: The beds could be more comfortable, but it’s the only criticism.

Friendly hosts. Great location for restaurants et.

Pros: Nice little touches. Coffee, tea and sugar plus cleaning items, shower supplies and tea towel.

Cons: Bit noisy from upstairs residents/ guests. (Stairs go above main bed) Some cooking smells from kebab shop. A small coffee table would be useful.
