Great staff and location, but the internals of the property were getting old. Some elements had been updated like the bathroom in the kitchen. We had a little baby with us and the curtains didn’t fully close so would let light in, especially at night it would let the lights from the city in. The curtains were pretty old and weathered. Needs a bathroom toilet brush and better extraction fan, if you know what I mean lol. Otherwise the one bedroom room was a good size for us and location was hard to beat.

The rooms are spacious and clean, but we found that the heating systems aren’t up to the job. Arriving to an apartment that was freezing cold was not a nice experience, and the heat pump was not working. In retrospect we should have got hot drinks and sat out near reception while the place warmed up after maintenance sorted it, but we shouldn’t have had to. On day 2 a very old (but effective) wall heater expired, filling our apartment with acrid smoke, resulting in having to be moved to another apartment that again was very cold, think 12 degrees Celsius. The bedrooms were only heated by a tiny fan heater, which of course cannot safely be used while asleep. My daughter’s room facing the street would have been 10 degrees C at most on some mornings. To be told with attitude by reception that we could have asked for electric blankets was unhelpful. They can’t be safely used all night either.

Our stay here was great. We arrived super early and our room was ready which was an awesome start! It was clean and tidy and great to have a separate room and living area. We didn't really use the kitchen too much as only there for two nights - but it had all the amenities. The staff were friendly and helpful.
