Top Flat

Location

Booked for three nights but due to storm arrived late on the 2nd night, advised owner of this so when we turned up at 23:45 found complementary tea and coffee but no milk, Tesco now shut. Bed very soft & uncomfortable. Shower leaked. No instructions for new induction cooker which after 1/2 hr trying to cook pasta in the one saucepan found the saucepan was not an induction so useless! New dishwasher not needed as no utensils, no tin opener, no bowels just two small mugs. Microwave but no plastic dishes to use in it. WIFI unable to log into ! Sofa with throw over it needs replacing as old and uncomfortable.

Loved the location,

Very well located and very physically clean.

Finding the location and then the keys in the dark and rain was frustrating The accommodation smelt very badly of cigarette smoke, we left the windows and door open but it didn't improve. It should be advertised as a smoking accommodation. The bed was uncomfortable Not particularly well equipped, there are only 2 small cups, cooking is limited due to lack of saucepans etc. Worst really is the complete lack of internet. An iPhone won't connect here because of wifi channel saturation. Th TV won't connect to the wifi.

We liked the location. It was so near local shops and attractions to visit the castle and cathedral. Lincoln is a lovely city to visit and the flat was a sweet little place to stay and feel like home.

The location was good and the shower was nice the bed was comfy although it was 2 single beds pushed together there were enough plates and cutlery and cups

There was no oven - and as someone who didn't want to eat out every night It was hard to have something nice without having a microwave meal - i think what would have improved my stay would be if there was an air fryer it would of really helped and u can get dishwasher safe ones as there is a dishwasher in the property apart from that I was happy with everything

Location was great.

Outdated cooker...

The location was excellent, close to the city center, and yet the flat was very quiet (even with a club and a busy street nearby). The explanation on how to use the door codes was very clear, and even though we arrived at midnight, there was no problem finding our way or getting in. The flat has everything you need for a couple of nights' stay. There is a 24-hour shop just down the street, along with cafes and other shops. The shower was excellent.

I would have preferred there to be a curtain in the bathroom; in the evenings, you felt quite exposed. Also a non-see-through curtain over the front door would have been nice since the bed is half in view from the door. The oven could do with a bit of cleaning. Minor things only and still more than good value for the stay.

Location was great. Hosts were very communicative with very clear photos and instructions of how to find them.

Wifi kept disappearing. Signal very weak. Could do with extra utensils. Only one teaspoon and one dessertspoon.

Location excellent and great hot shower

I had hoped that Top Flat would have provided some views and would mean I could leave windows open, but it was Actually Top Flat 2 and below Top Flat 1. Very poor internet for emails and gave up trying to stream. TV continually breaking up unless using the 4 main stations and even then often said no signal. TV had Prime logged in but it was never able to connect. Freezer very iced up. Excellent location though

The property is down a rear alley not far from the centre and so very quiet. The bed was comfortable and clean.

I would have been thrilled with this small flat as a student in the 70s but not so much as a retiree. Only 1 window opened to the outside but the sash was broken and it did not seem to be functioning so no fresh air.. the bedroom was tiny fine for 1 but with the bed being against the wall my husband had to crawl into the bed at the bottom. A little extra spent on the kitchen could have made a well fitted more functional kitchenette. The carpets were grim and the bathroom needed some extra cleaning in the shower to remove watermarks and soap scum. There is also a water leak in the far corner. Look up when vacuuming for cobwebs and daddy long legs and dusty slat blinds. Although there are 2 flats both called top flat this one flat 2 is ground floor below the stairs shown and dark. The tv didn't link to Internet and some channels had interference poor reception. It wasn't a flat we wanted to spend much time in. flat one above may be better. That being said the accommodation was cheap so you get what you pay for.
