Guest Reviews
- Ifrim (5/5): -
- Starkey (8/5): - location, size amenities bed was uncomfortable, as was the sofa, and the bathroom light was automatic so it came on when used at 1am waking others up.
- Louise (10/5): Ideal location for centre - Beautiful interior very clean
- Scott (8/5): An enjoyable stay at a great location. - Excellent location for all amenities, bar, restaurants etc. Property was clean. Easy to check-in. Carparks close by which were easily accessible. The bathroom needs better ventilation as it was really hot.
- Jack (9/5): A stones throw from the cathedral and highstreet - The clean room, nice bathroom and kitchen, with easy to use heating system.
- Sam (10/5): - Was nice and clean. Very comfortable. Location was ideal and parking next door made it a great stay. Will definitely use again Nothing
- Kirsty (8/5): Weekend stay - Good location, very clean. WiFi signal too weak to use, radiators hard to use with instructions that weren't helpful.
- Chris (8/5): -
- massey (8/5): -
- Phillip Ashley Nelson (8/5): - Happy with stay
- Cristina (10/5): -
- Joanne (9/5): - Great access to the city apartment was very clean and comfortable Unfortunately the road is noisy
- Linda (1/5): - Couldn't access as already told to you As above
- Melinda (1/5): - I just paid for 2 nights in Premier inn!
Couldn't sleep in the bed. The pictures were not representative. The bathroom was not clean. It was opposite a nightclub. The bed was too hard to sleep on. I had to relocate to a hotel at 11pm after trying to get into the bed
- Marie (7/5): Pleasant experience of first solo travel, clean, good WiFi and responsive host. - Easy to find, easy access, clean enough, great communication from host. Pleasant apartment, wasn’t bothered by anyone within the building. Hot water abundant and decent shower. Nice big towel. Close to local shop for supplies, would stay again. The bed was broken on one side not sure if it was the slats or something else, I travelled alone so slept on the other side of the bed.
The location is fine v close to town there is a nightclub a few doors down that on the Friday is very busy and loud until 2/3am.
I couldn’t get the internal double lock to work as a female traveller would’ve felt safer to know it was double locked.
Nothing to wash up with so wasn’t confident that the cups and plates etc were clean. The owner said they will rectify this though so not a big deal.
Bedroom heater I couldn’t work out how to get it on, living room one worked fine.
- Avril (8/5): - Apartment was in a great location near the main street going up to the castle and down to the canal. Apartment was great for a two night break and we only had breakfast so fine without a dishwasher.
- Roddy (10/5): We usually stay in the Doubletree when we come decided to hire an apartment for a change for a couple of days found the - Apartment was well equipped two minutes from the cent, and we enjoy your day would rate it above the Doubletree
- rachel (9/5): -
- Keith (8/5): It would have been a 10 out of 10 of it wasn’t for damp smell in the bathroom and an uncomfortable mattress. - Well appointed apartment in fantastic location. Very soft, lumpy mattress.
Damp smell from the bathroom.
- Claire (10/5): Fantastic apartment, close to the city centre. -
- samah (10/5): -
- allan (10/5): -
- Roam77 (6/5): Pleasant - Room size was great. pots and pans for the kitchen need renewal
- Kevin (9/5): Great location and a comfortable apartment. - Location is ideal for visiting Lincoln for business or leisure. Comfortable room for the price and building is very quiet. Only issue was some confusion at Booking.com that resulted in a double charge. This was resolved after a few attempts on my part.
- Georgia (4/5): Disappointing - When we booked we was asked to pay £10 admin fee to complete online check in which is not stated anywhere on booking.com. Then it states £100 refundable deposit but i was charged £500.
We was moved due to no hot water in the property. When we arrived at the new place it was outside of a nightclub.
We did not sleep for 2 nights due to the noise. Tried to complain and get compensation but had no response from the property.
- Richb71 (3/5): Hidden extras, Double Booking and Poor Overall Experience - Apartment was spacious and clean We arrived at our original room that we had booked and let ourselves in with the supplied door code - only to discover that someone else's belongings were already in there. On calling the owner we were told to 'get out' as they had not received our booking from booking.com - This was not true as we had been in contact earlier in the week and also we had received the Door Codes to use. We were then found an alternative property (with no Cathedral View as booked) a few hundred yards away but were made to feel like we were in the wrong when it was obviously no fault of our own. Also, on Booking.com it states a deposit of £100 will be taken by card as a security damages deposit - however, £500 is taken not £100 - and this is not refunded promptly - it took well over a week to refund with us having to chase repeatedly. Finally - an ID check is performed that costs £10 (non-refundable) - this is also not detailed on Booking.com when making the reservation.
- Tracey (7/5): A nice apartment with a great view. Clean. It was just the hot water thing, and the verification process after booking. - Great location. Friendly cleaners I had no hot water all weekend and no contact from the owner
- Natalie (6/5): Lovely city, apartment and location, let down by the poor service of the owners - The location was good for both the old town and newer area. Well equipped kitchen and good apartment in general Saturday morning the water wasn’t very hot in the shower, we put this down to the chance a number of people in the building had been using the water. Later in the day the water was even colder. I rang the number on booking.com and was told there was nothing they could do until Monday when they would get someone to come and check it. They only thing they could offer was a partial refund. Next morning, we had to boil kettles for hot water to wash. As we were leaving the cleaners were arriving and we mentioned the issue to them who said they would report it as well. The visitors to other apartment on the floor came out and mentioned they also had the same issue with the water, had sent a message on booking.com but had no response. I have since sent a number of messages on booking.com to the owner and sent text messages to the mobile number they answered on Saturday, with no response to any. This is disappointing service considering the issues we had and it now feels like they are trying to avoid giving us they offered at the time.
- Adam (9/5): Superb - We loved the apartment, clean, modern, good furniture, modern bathroom. The kitchen had good new appliances (great toaster!) and coffee and tea, which was a nice touch. The bathroom was modern, updated. The entire place and great wooden floors, and good blackout curtains. The bed was a little soft, though that's a question of preference. The sheets were clean. There was a small hard-edged glass table that we were a little worried about knocking over.
- Keeley (9/5): Ideal for few nights to visit Lincoln. Would definitely visit again. - Very clean. Central to everything.
Good size apartment
- Dogwonder (9/5): Great location, clean, nicely decorated throughout and a well equipped kitchen. - The location was great, access to the historic part of the city as well as cafes, restaurants and shops. Even though it was on a relatively busy road the sound was minimal in the actual apartment. Wonderfully clean, all the things you could need for a mini-break. Loved it. And a wonderful view the Cathedral to top it all off.
- Joseph (8/5): Very good -
- Julie (1/5): Be wary to book this as owner cancelled as we reached the accommodation. Money not fully refunded. - Nothing - unable to tell you as the owner double booked the accommodation. We only found out when we reached the front door and used the code the owner had given me the day before by telephone call. Would have known that you had given out two sets of door codes and verification of the guests.
Shocking behaviour and hugely distressing.
The night before my daughter graduation and nowhere to stay. Horrific and the owner really did not have much to say other than I sent you an email to cancel it whilst we were half way into the five hour journey to reach the property. Then said he would refund our payment and insurance which still has not been settled. Offered a free stay in the email. Shocking and should be deeply ashamed of this. So disappointing. The owner attitude and lack of refunding our complete booking costs. This includes the insurance which still is outstanding.
Be very wary of this booking and the owner. Such a shame.
- Christopher (5/5): Shame the management of the property doesn't check rooms before new visitors - Clean and modern The ensuite was ridiculously small/narrow, struggling between the sink an wall to get to the toilet. On arrival the bed was broken and there was a very small valence sheet with no bottom sheet. I had to sleep on the broken bed with no bottom sheet the first night. The bed was fixed on the second day, the bottom sheet was put on, on the third day. Not what I'd expect
- Robert (9/5): Enjoyed the location and facilities but neighbourhood noisy - N/A Noisy neighbourhood
- Christine (8/5): Very good -
- Peter (10/5): Apart from the drama regarding deposit, the apartment was great and a beautiful place to stay. - I was given run around between Booking.com and host about security deposit on credit card. Host telling me it had to be done on the site, but was no place to actually do this and help desk telling me it had to be arranged with host. Wasted a lot of my time and in the end was waived by the host on the day I was arriving as no one could tell me how to pay it.
- Craig (8/5): Very good -
- Abigail (9/5): Excellent accommodation, will probably come back next year - Very well appointed Mattress was a bit springy and the sofa faces the wrong way but it wasn’t a problem
- Peter (10/5): Exceptional - The facilities and location were excellent Nothing, apart from only 30mins parking outside apartment
- Paul (10/5): Exceptional - Our stay at this apartment was fantastic great position location for Lincon Center tha apartment was very clean and comfortable and very modern with great facilities even a washing machine lol would definitely go again
- Wayneob (10/5): Exceptional - We could not fault these stunning apartments
Location was brilliant very clean and had absolutely everything you wanted inside and around the property . We found it very quiet and pleasant stay . Wouldn't defiantly stay again .
- John (6/5): Pleasant -
- Sara (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean and spacious. Excellent location. Nothing.
- Elizabeth (10/5): Our first ever trip to Lincoln was made even nicer with our stay in our lovely apartment. - Location was central and quiet. The apartment was well equiped, spotlessly clean with good appliances. I hadn’t noticed the wifi code in the foyer would have been good to have in our apartment.
We were on the top floor with stairs but they were easy to manage.
- David (10/5): Highly recommend great views in and amongst all bars shops etc - Everything we needed for our stay was provided so we didn't have to pack additional items location was perfect 2 mins from main Lincoln centre surrounded by pubs shops etc beautiful setting would highly recommend anyone coming to stay at the apartments we would def re visit in the future The glass coffee table as we both kept catching it with our legs even after moving it few bruises lol 😆 daily house keeping was advertised but we didn't have any during our stay had to provide ourselves with toilet roll not that it was a major issue
- Leo (5/5): Passable - Location and kitchen equipment. The wifi is very average.
- Henry (8/5): Very good -
- John (4/5): Disappointing - Convenience Normally good, and we've stayed here a lot recently as we work in the area, however on the 10th May someone started construction work at 19:30 in the evening, which is unacceptable if you have to be up at 05:00 for work the following day, if we'd have been advised this was going to be the case we could have made other arrangements for this week, I will think twice now before booking again, shame really
- Mildred (9/5): Superb - The location The bed was not comfortable.
- Gary (5/5): City break in Lincoln - Apartment was clean, nicely fitted out and all facilities needed. Great location, near to city centre, car parks close by. Had issues getting in, no key code and difficulty getting help, but resolved in about 20 mins. Wifi details in ground floor and we were in 2nd floor, so that was not great. Bed very soft, but slept OK.
- Jason (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michael (9/5): Superb -
- Jason (9/5): Nice Apartment Central Lincoln - Nice modern apartment close to high street and shops so very convenient. A short walk up the famous iconic steep hill and you were in the heart of the Cathedral quarter or a stroll down to the Brayford pool. Everything felt pretty new so a nice experience visiting Lincoln. Parking at the rear using the Motherwell car park. Fault with wifi while we were there which meant not getting tv channels for the evening like Netflix but muddled through using phone, fixed on the Monday so guess all fine normally
- Isobel (8/5): Very good - great location, easy key safe entry, had everything we needed wifi did not work - couldn’t access the network at all on the top floor
- Claudia (8/5): Very good -
- Emma (10/5): fantastic!!!!! - Everything it was very modern, clean and fantastic location. n/a
- Lucy (7/5): Good - Very clean, centrally located. The mattress is sagging and very uncomfortable. It led to a terrible night’s sleep.
- Claire (9/5): Superb - lovely modern apartment couldn’t want for more
- Michael (8/5): Very good - central location, attractive decor, well equipped. owners helpful. lacked a cafetière and scissors. soundproofing between rooms isn’t really sufficient.
- Lia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Peter (9/5): Good value for money, cosy, warm and secure - will definitely be back - Cathedral View on top floor - there's NO lift!
Good communications from agents
central location and nearby parking
quiet apartment despite being in city centre
very clean bathroom very small and needs repairs & renewals - shower facia, shower head fixing on wall, grouting, duration of hot water
kitchen well appointed with appliances and very clean - could do with some glasses, crockery being replaced - basic items such as kitchen roll, tea/coffee/sugars
- Shah (9/5): Superb - overall good, highly recommended drainage problem of toilet sink
- Rachael (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic for the money definitely stop there again spotless !
- Chris (8/5): lovely apartment - The mattress was soft and worn out
- Andrew (9/5): Superb - The apartment was comfortable & well-equipped, and clean. Location was excellent — easy walking distance to tourist sites and shops & transport, almost entirely via pedestrianised routes. There was a little noise from the nearby night clubs on the Friday evening, as noted in the description of the apartment, but nothing out of the ordinary for a city-centre location.
- Leah (7/5): Great location! - Location is excellent.
Loved the modern style of place.
Easy access and check in and out.
Has all essentials, fairly quiet, considering it's a central location. Bed needs replacing it's uncomfortable.
New pans needed in the kitchen.
- Susan (10/5): Lincoln Tavmar Appartment - Excellent location to town centre. NCP parking behind apartments.
The apartment was really lovely and self-sufficient and modern. Really lovely place. The bed lol 😆, as spoilt at home.
- Ash (8/5): Very good -
- Rosemary (10/5): Lovely city break - Apartment is just a few minutes from the centre of Lincoln.
Super clean. Comfortable. Hand basin in bathroom doesn't drain very well
- Sarah (10/5): loved my stay, can’t recommend highly enough - great location, lovely clean apartment, helpful and friendly staff who replied to messages promptly paying for parking - but not the properties fault
- Jessica (9/5): Superb - Was clean and easy to find. Good location.
- Simon (10/5): Exceptional - Location was amazing to celebrate new year... Nothing
- Flower (7/5): Good -
- Josh (10/5): Exceptional -
- Julian (6/5): Great apartment for a short stay providing all the basics - Great location for my work. Clean and functional. Great facilities on the whole and meet most requirements. Access to Netflix and Amazon Prime is really useful if having a quiet night in. Any queries I had were responded to quickly and positively by the host. Whilst there is a fridge, there is nowhere to store any frozen food. The TV in the bedroom are was not working but not a huge inconvenience. The automatic light in the bathroom is a bit of a shock in the middle of the night and the pillows are particularly uncomfortable.
- Shamela (10/5): Cosy, modern apartment in a great location 😊! - The apartment was a good size for the 2 of us with everything we could have possibly needed. Perfect location for shops and restaurants. Bed and pillows were super comfy and the apartment in general was clean and smelt fresh. Really easy check in and check out, very organised set up. We felt at home and really liked the extra touches with the books under the coffee table and even a board game! Everything was in working order and we felt very comfortable. Thank you :) The bathroom had a strong smell of damp and dirty trays were left in the oven but apart from those 2 things, everything else was perfect and we had a really great stay.
- Jonathan (8/5): Lovely night in Lincoln - Excellent location and beautifully clean It would have been challenging for 4 adults that were not couples to stay there as the sofa bed would have been very awkward!
- Daniel (10/5): Lovely place and location - Very spacey, very clean, great location, easy check in! Very good priced aswell Loved it all!
- Lucy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anita (9/5): Fabulous base for visiting the Xmas markets - well equipped, spacious & incredibly handy for the city centre bed not that comfy but perfectly fine
- Andy (7/5): Good -
- Michelle (7/5): Good -
- B (8/5): Very good -
- Polly (10/5): very good - great location, clean, has everything you need. traffic noise and noise from the street but not too bad,
- Mike (8/5): Very good - Good location for exploring Lincoln.Check in with the codes was communicated well. I stayed in Cathedral Room 2 & thought the bathroom was a bit of a squeeze but not a big deal
- Hesham (8/5): Very good -
- Martine (10/5): Excellent Accommodation - Great communication from Tavmar apartments to gain access in.
Bed very comfortable and spotlessly clean.
Everything there that you need for a stay.
Super location. The glass table in the living room area is beautiful, but it is quite difficult to see the edges as it blends in with the rug. Had a couple of gentle knocks to the knees!
- Elaine (8/5): Very good -
- Julian (9/5): Excellent location and great value for money. I shall be back. - The property was perfect for my work location with a clean environment and a comfortable bed. Godd range of shops and take-aways all within a short walk. The only thing lacking for me was a freezer and a dishwasher. Other than that everything needed was provided.
- Wolff (10/5): Exceptional -
- Riaz (10/5): Exceptional -
- Riaz (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sandra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Racheal (10/5): excellent - lovely little apartment, great location, comfortable and very clean just what we needed.
- Gianfranco (3/5): smelly, disappointing and dissatisfied - close to the town. reasonably well appointed. We arrived on Friday evening and found the apartment following the directions provided - easy to find and close to the station which is very helpful.
We found the apartment to seem tidy and predominantly clean however we did run into a few issues:
1. For the sofa bed, there were no pillow covers or duvet cover
2. The bathroom had lots of hair on the floor - looked like pubic hair
3. The bathroom did not look like it had been thoroughly cleaned
4. There was a strong odour of damp and mould that permeated from the bathroom to the main bedroom - this smell persisted and was unpleasant
5. The television in the main bedroom was not functioning
6. Windows let in a LOT of external noise.
We wrote to the owners and they have not responded nor offered any refund/reimbursement. Perhaps a reflection of their attitude and approach.
- Jonathan (10/5): outstanding xx - great location and modern nothing, all was great
- Jackie (8/5): pleasant - lovely and clean, easy to get to. The noise inside and out was horrendous at times. the latest someone came back was 4am and they weren’t quiet. The parking info could have been clearer.
- Sarah (7/5): Good - Location was great. Clean and modern. Everything we needed for short stay. Security of building was great. No extra duvet. We were two adults but presumed we were a couple. One large bath towel provided not two. Other guests just allowing their room doors to bang shut.
- Lëe (10/5): great place with everything you could want - Great facilities, comfy stay and really good wifi. nothing
