This apartment was more than we needed for our 1 night stay but very appreciated. It was clean and had all the amenities. The vegan bakery down the street was amazing. Centrally located, we walked to the beach, to parks and restaurants.

Uninviting outside belies the nice, quiet rooms.
Slightly weird entrance that did not inspire confidence but the inside was really nice, especially my room. Receptionist was very welcoming and helpful.

Lovely little area of Aberdeen, easy access to local shops and restaurants. Taxi service was very convenient. On our last night we had people banging on our door at 3 AM but other than that it was fabulous. We would stay again

We have stayed in this location on several occasions. The serviced suites are to be recommended & we usually try to stay in the same one. The location is excellent - central & close to some of the historic architecture in the city. On previous reviews I have mentioned the state of the windows - those overlooking Union Street are absolutely filthy outside. Clean them please!!!!!

Enjoyed our stay, was nice to get away for a break. Did find someone’s perfume and clothes label in the room. The sponge we received for cleaning our dishes had already been used by someone. Considering the price for a night which I’d say is a little high you’d think every apartment would have new sponges for new residents. Considering all of this I would return to the apartments as this isn’t my first time staying with yourselves and I do love the apartments. Staff are a bonus as they were all very polite and kind.

Gorgeous room, horrible everything else
I love the suite but checking in was a NIGHTMARE. It’s extremely confusing because the door is locked but there are no instructions- just for “delivery drivers” to call a number. I called the number on the website, a very rude person told me she’d let the receptionist know to open the door but I waited 15 minutes— outside. In the rain. With my luggage. I’d been traveling all day and just wanted to get to my room. I was almost crying then banged on the door and someone opened it finally and she chastised me for not already knowing to call the number on the paper saying delivery drivers should call that number. She then made me wait another half an hour for my room. It was absolutely ridiculous

Really quite a good property - once I was able to gain entry. Corner apartment was very large and nicely appointed. This is the best accommodation I’ve had - and infinitely better than the hotel in Edinburgh with an elevator that didn’t work and uncaring staff. The only minor complaint was that the washer was unstable during the spin cycle - and the street side windows were very dirty. Otherwise excellent!
