Hounds Gate Luxury Apartments by 1508 Stays

We stayed in Apartment Two. Avoid at all costs. 1508 deal with you through WhatsApp and ask for a photo of a valid ID, which was weird. Upon arrival to the property we were given a code to the lock box, although there are a couple labelled with the number 2. Code didn’t work. In one of their texts they did provide a property guide for apartment seven, which provide the code to their lock box, not very secure for the people staying in there. I sent a message to 1508 and they provided us with another code which worked. Inside the apartment was very disappointing. It smelled of stale cigarettes. The carpet in the bedroom was stained all over, walls through the accom were marked with god knows what but some marks were clearly boot marks. There was broken floor tiles in the bathroom and clear signs of damp. Grotty is how I would describe this apartment. A fan was in the lounge area, the top of which could be completely removed and the earth pin from the plug had broken off inside the socket, health and safety concern and dangerous. Snapped doorframes, chip cooker tops and tea stains on doorframes, I sent pictures through WhatsApp to 1508 and they said they’d pass this onto their cleaning team! The whole apartment needs redecorating not just cleaning. Particularly disappointed as this was booked for our wedding anniversary, we were sad to go back to this apartment after of celebratory meal. Avoid this apartment if you can.

Great apartment, great location

Sofa bed was far too small and extremely uncomfortable and noisy

The apartment was actually nice and clean and it was what we were looking for.

All the apartments were broken in to on our one night stay. Various items stolen through all apartments. We didn’t occupy them all but spoke to other the other guests. Footage was seen via ring doorbell cams with youths with keys entering all apartments.

Lovely smart apartment, really well located. Very helpful communication in the lead up and and during the stay.

Tiny details like some of the sockets being painted around the edges and the soap on the bathroom not fixed to the wall.
