"Good"

4.0

We arrived at the Old School Apartment 1 on a slightly earlier check in, so thank you for that! Access into the property was as instructed and was easy but there are some steep stairs! The property had a comfortable bed and easy to use shower, and two TV's were available, but without any instructions for using the Amazon boxes. There was a limited but sufficient range of cutlery and plates but only one saucepan. The microwave was in good working order. The property is about ten minutes walk from the lovely town centre, and there was sufficient space for parking. However ....

On our arrival, and on entering the premises, there was a very musty smell. We noticed stains on the sofa, an unclean front of the oven, a very badly scaled kettle .. and about a quarter to a half of a toilet roll left for two adults for two nights, without any spares .. oh, and only one T bag. Self catering it may be but there are limitations! We immediately contacted the housekeeping number and, within a couple of hours, all of the issues were rectified BUT this should have been addressed before our arrival. And it should also be noted that the outside of the property was covered in old dust and cobwebs .. simple things which should have been addressed when renting out a property!

"Summer family catch-up in Bury St Edmunds"

9.0

Location. Decor. Comfy bed

Double glazing to reduce road noise. Mostly ok but a few weirdos walking along street yelling on Saturday night. Traffic noise not too bad at night.

"Perfect location; hospitality is lacking"

5.0

The parking was easily accessible and retrieving the apartment key was very easy. I appreciated the two bottles of water.

This apartment is in a perfect location but the decor is tired and the bathroom is shabby. Most frustrating was, on one of the hottest nights of the year, the bedroom in this property has a door that shuts automatically, impossible to prop open to get ventilation. Thankfully there was a fan in the room, but it was on a timer and ran only for a max of 120 minutes. I woke up promptly every two hours to reset. Not conducive to a peaceful nights sleep. The last point is that I was sent a form email the day that I checked out giving me a list of "chores' to accomplish before leaving. Take the trash out, put the dishes in the dishwasher, etc. I paid a fair amount to rent this flat and never have I ever been asked to clean.

"Great location but not very clean"

6.0

Great Location, right by the abbey gardens. Very close into town. Also a very cute house

The bedroom looks out onto the street. As it’s only a single window, it’s terribly loud, as if the window were open because all the cars are driving past. So definitely pack some ear plugs ! And the cleanliness was very disappointing, the sheets weren’t ironed, the were hairs in the bed and a dead squashed spider right next to the bed. The bathroom also wasn’t clean, I felt very uncomfortable. The kitchen was ok, although we didn’t use it at all.

"Charming place!"

Location, living room area and bed.

Entry way and stairs smell really bad. Probably just need to replace carpet with tile or wood

"Comfortable, well equipped holiday let."

10.0

It’s furnished in a more traditional style but very comfortable and the listing is very accurate so no surprises. Everything worked and lots of carefully thought out basic details were covered so often missing in holiday lets. Comfortable bed. Good shower. Would I stay again - 100% 😊

I can be fussy but nothing springs to mind. Parking might be tight if you’re driving a big 4x4.
