Host & Stay - Staffordshire Hideaway

The location of the property

The mattress wasn’t very comfortable and the hygiene was terrible. I washed bed sheets. Dirty towels. Dog hairs in pots and pans and hairs left in the shower.

Fantastic location, really helpful host, nicely decorated and clean

upstairs was noisy on our last night as ceiling was quite thin but the first 2 nights they were fine so not really an issue !

The location was good

The sofa was covered in dog hair, the floor was dirty, and there were crumbs on the coffee table. The hoover smelled of dog, the mop bucket in the cupboard left a stagnant water smell in the whole place. We had to open the door, only 2 windows could open. Had to buy air fresheners and sit on throws from the car because of the amount of dog hair on the sofa, and the horrible smell from the hoover and bucket.There was lots of noise from the above apartment.

Did not like the extra charge for accidental damage- personally think this a very sneaky extra hidden cost Also upstairs were quite noisy and the outside space doesn’t really exist it almost too tiny.

The external area needs attention dirty and unkempt

Modern and well equipped the apartment has pretty much everything you need. Location is central so great for accessing the town centre and while it’s very close to the pub we didn’t experience much noise at all.

I’d read previous reviews and hoped some of the issues might have been addressed but unfortunately not. The apartment wasn’t very clean. Bedroom carpet covered in grass, hair and fluff - obviously hasn’t been hoovered before we arrived. There was lots of hair on the bathroom floor and sticky spots on the wooden floor in the living area!! All basics that really should have been right. The noise from the upstairs apartment is really loud. Clearly the people staying there were just walking around but it sounded like a baby elephant was upstairs. And finally the bed. Not the worst I’ve slept in but it’s old and had its day. Needs replacing really!! If these things were addressed I’d stay again. Otherwise it’d be a no!

Very good communication, very nicely situated, clean, secure, and welcoming,

Upstairs occupied sometimes noisy,

Clean and comfortable very quirky location

There were people above us that were very noisy moving around constantly went on for hours even quite late at night very annoying

The property had everything we would need and so dog friendly witch was a bonus

No photos shown on the outside of the street so can be hard to locate at first
