Grand Central Friar Gate Deluxe

Everything about this apartment was amazing, from the host to the feel of the apartment. Very cosy, clean and modern apartment. Will definitely stay again.

Great staff nice location

The door very noisy

Clean, value for money

Relatively noisy bathroom exhaust fan in quiet apartment.

The property was spotless, secure, and beautifully maintained, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was peaceful yet convenient, and the host was very helpful indeed—friendly, responsive, and made everything easy from start to finish

We were met onsite by Tracey who was absolutely fantastic by showing us round the apartment. The apartment itself was immaculate throughout and was a short walk to a number of local shops and restaurants. Whilst being close to the university, the area was very quiet. The location of the apartment was also great as it was only a 35 minute drive from Alton Towers and the Heights of Abraham

There wasn't anything not to like

Great location, very clean large apartment, free parking. Great communication prior to arrival. Reliable WI-FI.

Extremely high rates for Derby. A £295 deposit which seemed high since nothing in the cheaply decorated apartment was worth that much. No kitchen curtains which meant neighbors from the building in front and people from the street could see everything in the kitchen. No net curtains in the other windows either which meant very little privacy. Very weak cell phone coverage inside the apartment, intercom was not working properly. Maybe because the entrance door downstairs had issues. One had to manipulate the lock in order to open the door. No coffee table, no hand towels, no elevator, old towels, no bed spreads. The carpet in the bedroom was stained and dirty and stank of wet dog! The worst mattress I have ever slept on. Doors were slamming constantly in the building when the neighbors came and went. Lots of street noise at night with loud people passing the building. The meet and greet should be replaced by self check in which works much better. And the woman (Tracey) who greeted me, did not seem very friendly or welcoming. Due to everything mentioned about, I will not return to this property. I am surprised no other reviews mention any of the issues I experienced. As a ‘deluxe’ expensive apartment I had expected a lot more.
