Host & Stay - Scotsgate House

Location and size.

Dusty. Cob webs everywhere and communal areas dirty.

The location was excellent and the accommodation had everything we needed for our short stay. As one of our party suffers from a gluten intolerance it gave us the flexibility we needed.

The main issue was a lack of a second shower over the bath. There was insufficient hot water to allow shower for 2 people as well as a bath with an adequate amount of water.

The flat was central

Stairway was grubby/dirty . Resembled a a poor hostel . Lock on the door was broken and had to wait to late the next morning for a locksmith to arrive! Freezer was moldy, lots of dust on skirtings in some areas and several quite big spiders webs complete with spiders! On plus side the beds bedding, towels etc were clean a comfortable.

The spaciousness of the flat living and dining area and modern decor was lovely.Found it clean and functional.Electric windows.Black out blinds. Two large bedrooms.We asked for twin to bed made a king. No issues. Lovely furniture and kitchen had everything we needed. Fab location for parking (long stay castle gate behind B&M ) was a bonus as close to flat.Also found to be close to train station and centre of town with lots of shops,cafes,pubs on your doorstep if you didn't have a car. Entrance was clear to see if you downloaded app(great photos) and very secure with keycode/keys are to get into flat. Shared flat entrance with 4 others,so yes,it could do with maintenance,(stairs and carpet) but overall,functional for a short break.Good value. Good communication with host &stay before and throughout stay.

As mentioned,the flat entrance is shared with other residents,so could do with bit of maintenance.

spacious, comfortable

The location was perfect in the middle of town. The whole unit was very comfortable, clean with modern appliances. The rooms were generous and the beds very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. The rooms were quiet and secluded with no road noise at all. Restaurants and pubs are close which was very handy.

The stairs getting up to the unit are a bit narrow but manageable.

Spacious

Entrance and charging for “insurance” - needs to be included in the stated price

Good location for what we needed and access to town. Hosts were easily contactable and helpful

Entrance from street, steps and stairs carpet to apartment door are grubby and not particularly clean although apartment itself is. No shower in main bathroom is not great

The spaciousness and modern decor. Very clean and light bedrooms. Two big double bedrooms. Well equipped kitchen. Good quality furniture and kitchen. Excellent location for station and centre of town.

Having to pay £25 extra for insurance. Would have been better if part of initial price and not an extra cost.
