Apartment was great, clean and well maintained, close to facilities and back bedroom buses. Very reasonably priced. One complaint, two lovely big mirrors but no plug nearby, doing my hair was a challenge.

Don’t keep your hopes too high. This is basically a university accommodation converted hotel, so sound insulation is quite bad. The TV was also not working.

Lovely location and had everything we needed
We enjoyed our stay at KM apartments. Lovely location and had everything we needed. The only issue we had was that our room was positioned directly above a loading bay, which unfortunately made a very loud noise/shook the room when deliveries were made, and woke us up for quite a while around 5/6am on the Sunday. However, we had no problems the next morning and we were only there 2 nights. Likely only an issue on weekends, and only for that room.

It’s a great stay for families, everything is clean and spacious. However there’s some stairs leading to the apartments which may pose some issues to individuals with luggages and would have been better if there was air conditioning

Very expensive for what is essentially ‘student accommodation’ but was immaculate and quite close to old town. Lots of students around as other floors are for the students. Staff very friendly
