Property is in an ideal position for city use. Somewhat noisy from road noise and loud people in next apartment, but comfortable and very clean. Will stay again.
Location was excellent with restaurants across the street and next door to the apartment. Very easy to get around without a car.

Accommodation is spacious with a well stocked kitchen. The angled ceiling in the main bedroom is a nice touch. Only drawback is a lack of parking, which I was aware of when booking.

Liked: Communication
The complex appears run down, there was a faint smell of urine below the apartments where the restaurants and shops are situated. Although handy it can be a bit noisy at times. The three bedroom apartment had a drain in the kitchen floor with a cover however it wasn't very appetising when making meals and watching dirty water swirling. We couldn't open the windows in the two top bedrooms so prepare to be hotboxed during the summer months, the mobile fans assist with the sauna experience, no aircon. The kitchen bin was broken and only one toilet roll provided for 5 guests over two days. Staff however were great and provided more rolls and changed the bin. The beds were great, unit tidy, plenty of towels, cutlery. It could do with fresh paint and maybe some art on walls as its quite bland. Paid carparking was easily accessible.

Good place for families and good base for a 3 night stay. Everything we needed was close by including various eateries and cafes.
Main bedroom backed onto the street, so a bit noisy but otherwise perfect.

Great location & flat noise from bars unbearable
The accommodation was really spacious, clean and had everything we needed. The location was good, it was central so we could walk everywhere. Unfortunately the noise from the bars below was unbearable and continued until 2:30am, which was a real shame.
