St Ives

A very clean, seemingly very new and well maintained apartment in a very nice part of town. Very well equipped overall with some useful things like salt and pepper, oil, tea and coffee, sugar, cleaning stuff, iron and board. It could do with a few little touches like a coffee table, chopping board and oven gloves. It was very warm when we arrived with the heating on (handy in December). The Freeview signal was a bit wobbly but it's a Smart TV so works well on the very good WiFi (you can also plug in a laptop using the HMDI cable from the BlueRay player). Despite being on the main road the traffic noise is not at all intrusive. In the evenings it is very quiet. There are a couple of small, well stocked food shops, including the one in the PO directly below. There is a truly excellent butchers and a couple of coffee shops and a well recommended pub (plus a takeaway, but we didn't try that). The centre of Halifax is only a 25 minute easy walk. Parking is tricky. There is a space in the alley at the rear (first come first served) but you have to be careful not to block the delivery door for the Post Office. Much of the area is resident permit parking Monday to Friday 0800 to 1900 with some limited parking in these zones during these house. The rest is pay and display costing £3 for more than 5 hours (very good value), so you can park all day, but have to be back at the car for 8am to put in a new ticket. We parked successfully at the back and a visitor found on street parking easily enough. We have already booked for next year.

The only drawback is that there is no freezer unit in the fridge, so staying for longer than a couple of days is a bit limiting food-wise.

love the house stayed a few times. close to all the local amenities and pub. Everything you could need

Very comfortable , clean and well kept.

Very low sofa.

I've stayed here before so I knew off hand the area and house are nice close to local amenities.

It was excellent for our weekend away spacious and loved the attic bedroom extremely peaceful.

Non applicable

Loved the flat, very clean and comfortable, the bed was amazingly comfortable, the host was very quick to get back to us.

The parking was a bit confusing, luckily we found parking near, As the bedroom is so high up it was very hot , a fan would have been appreciated. There were fireworks going off every night

The Apartment was spotless. It has everything you need. Lots of space over the two floors. Its also above the local shop, very handy. Nice quiet part of town. Very clear and helpful information about keys. Would fully recommend .

For me there wasn't any issues but for some 2 flights of stairs could be. Parking in the week could be difficult .
