1 bedroom modern duplex

• Decent location - 5-minute walk to Watts Park and 10-minute walk to Papillon. • Free parking. • Mostly comfortable bed. • Mostly renovated space. • Clean bathroom.

• Expensive AND non-refundable. • Truvi verification system - pushy, extra £5, and has copies of my IDs. • Shower (electric) is terrible, according to my partner - "it's either hot or cold and there's like 5 drops of water at a time". • No curtains in the bedroom, so it's ultra bright at 7 AM. • Wi-Fi didn't work - could connect but no Internet access. • Entrance mat and bedroom shelves (at least) clearly hadn't been cleaned recently. • Check-in instructions weren't sent or available automatically. Fortunately, a neighbour let us into the shared space, and the door was left unlocked. • Kitchen bin but no bin bags.

Great location but some serious issues - read this before booking！ The good bits: Great location – right in the city centre, easy walking distance to supermarkets, restaurants, parks, and museums. Parking was easy too.

Big warnings: 1. Take photos when you check in! The owner tried to charge us for a missing TV remote control that was never there during our stay. I explained that: (1) we never saw the remote from the moment we checked in, and (2) we had to use the TV's physical buttons to turn it on/off (proving we never had the remote). Despite this, they still blamed us. So save yourself the hassle – document everything! 2.Not ideal for families! We felt unfairly accused when the owner suggested my child might have damaged or taken the TV remote without any evidence. 3. The ID check isn’t what Booking says. You’ll need to upload both an ID and a selfie (not mentioned on the listing). Also, the "£5 deposit" they advertise is actually a non-refundable "processing fee" – you won’t get it back. 4. Sofa bed was dirty. When we tried to use it, we found food crumbs and some balloons inside, so we couldn't use it as intended. 5. No hairdryer provided despite being listed on booking.com. Bring your own to be safe. 6. No refunds after booking, so be 100% sure before you pay.

Nice property can’t complain 10/10

This was a lovely little apartment close to everything we needed. Owner is great at communicating too. The bed was 10/10 so comfy 😌 Definitely recommend 👌

Very modern and has everything you need

Really well-equipped and furnished. Great location, excellent communication.

The sofa bed wasn’t the most comfy but the rest of the apartment was perfect!
