Alma Apartments In A Perfect Location

Great location, the flat was nice and decently sized.

There was no hairdryer and the flat was not cleaned to the highest standards. The floor and carpet were quite dirty and the shower had not been cleaned very well.

Good central location

Apartment needs a good clean (there was dust and grease on surfaces throughout). One plug socket next to the bed was cracked and broken. Paintwork throughout is tired, scuffed and in need of redecorating. The rug in the sitting room was stained and dirty. The throw on the bed was stained. Mattress is too soft. Despite the heatwave, the heated towel rail in the bathroom was on and couldn't be turned off. When paying £140 a night, 10am is too early a checkout time. And you get *far* too many emails about the deposit, check in and check out processes (I counted at least 15). We won't return.

The property has a lot of space, and the location was nice, there’s a shopping centre right across the road, and the bus stop to Clifton Suspension Bridge and Bristol was just nearby.

The shower was a bit confusing, and the kitchenware was quite dirty, we had to clean them all by ourselves. There was a bug on the towels when we came into the room.

Beautifully decorated, comfy bed, good shower. Very good location for Cotham/university area. Property itself very clean. Excellent directions and prompt responses from the agency team managing the property.

No drinking glasses at all, just some mugs. Only one chair for breakfast bar. Small sink in bathroom not draining properly. Corridor areas in need of repaint and vacuum.

Great location, nice vibe, great place to chill and rest between exploring the city

Not very clean, a tad shabby and the shower was bad

The location of the property was amazing

The security doors to the property were never locked, always open meaning anyone could access the main building. The lockbox to access the keys and put them back was faulty and meant I had trouble putting my keys back at checkout. There was a very bad smell coming from the drains in the bathroom, whenever you use any water the smell is horrific. The bathroom sink was also blocked and would take a very long time to drain. The windows were not locked when I arrived and I had trouble locking them. The bins in the room smelled bad upon arrival.

Check in information wasn’t sent when needed. Room was already being used by someone else when I arrived so I was moved to a different appt late in the evening.

The central location

It was impossible to find, the address listed took us to 85 Alma road, this was not Alma apartments. The post code listed also took us elsewhere. The entrance to the property is a big metal gate with the appearance of a bin area to a commercial back door. There is no number and no sign to indicate that it is Alma apartments. There are no clear instructions. A big black metal gate down the side of Gail’s bakery is all the info required to make it clear where to find it. We searched from 10.30 until 1am and it was only by chance when a couple where coming out of the gate and we were able to ask them that they confirmed the location. When we got through the gate it was filthy, on entering the building it was clear that the communal areas hadn’t seen a vacuum or a mop for some time. Flat 4 smelt of damp rags. The sink in the shower room had a stopper in the sink that was Jammed shut so the sink didn’t drain. The damp fragrance throughout never went despite us opening windows. Flat 3 had the gift of a loo that hadn’t been cleaned or even flushed. There was a large sitting room/kitchen but no sofa, a strange arrangement of stained furniture and a glass table that was filthy. These apartments are not places that you would wish to spend any time in so it’s a good thing that there are plenty of places to go to nearby.
