533 Luxury Double Studio Apartment Sleeps Two

It was spacious

There were only half the amount of blinds at the most and no curtains so we had no privacy and the light came in early in the morning making it impossible to stay asleep. I messaged and rang the hosts but they ignored me Also the tv dint work

Really happy with the apartment. Perfect for what we wanted. Host was very helpful and quick to respond to queries. Very close to the Utilita Arena (10 minute walk) for events and a supermarket next door for supplies. Would use again!

Only minor issue was that the blinds were broken and need replacing.

CLOSE TO CITY CENTRE BY CAB ABOUT 10MIN WALK. VERY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL CONCIERGES.

WINDOW BLIND BROKEN SO IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP LIGHT OUT FOR A GOOD SLEEP. COMBINE THIS WITH THE LOUD TRAFFIC OUTSIDE APARTMENT WITH CARS RACING UP AND DOWN LATE INTO THE NIGHT, AND IT'S PERFECT FOR INSOMNIACS! LONG WALK FROM THE LIFT TO GET TO THE APARTMENT, THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF A VERY LONG BUILDING. NO AIR-CON. FINDING ACTUAL ENTRANCE TO BUILDING WAS TRICKY. WI-FI CODE WOULD NOT WORK.

The bed mattress was comfortable. The kitchen area was good (a welcome basket would go the extra mile). Liked that it had a fridge freezer and some condiments already there and tea / coffee etc. Nothing fancy but better than having nothing at all. The flat is quite spacious. The check in info was detailed and accurate, which helped our check in. The host kindly allowed us a slightly earlier check-in when we requested this. The host was quite responsive - but would recommend a different approach to learning the intended departure time from guests to plan for cleaning (from someone who stays regularly in hotels & AirBnBs etc this is something I'm hardly ever asked, and definitely never in this way before, but I understand the reasoning for it - just think there was a better way of doing it as I felt a bit pressured to be asked this before being asked how our stay was etc).

Wish I'd studied past reviews more carefully as we found the road outside REALLY LOUD during the day and at night so we didn't get a good night's sleep or have a restful, chilled afternoon cooking and watching TV (see below). Even from the top floor it was noisy. Windows are very thin and yes the blinds are broken (flagged by previous reviewers) so they don't close properly meaning its very bright from early in the morning during the summer (when we would have loved a lie-in). Watching TV was a struggle. It needed tuning, and then the signal was so poor for the stored channels there was no point in even watching it. Disappointing as that was a factor in choosing this place and now having looked back it seems past reviewers as far back as July 2024 have been flagging this.
