Love the location, with a quaint breakfast joint (Janet's) and spectacular pizza (Trattoria Lalis) close by. The provision of parking, the easy check-in and out and comfortable fully equipped units made our stay memorable.

Great accommodation with secure parking, everything we needed for our stay.
We could hear the guests above us and when using the stairs but I think they were probably just very noisy

Great stay for family of 3
This was the perfect accomodation for our family. Two rooms with double beds worked perfectly for our family. The living space was an added bonus and the extra added things made the stay even better: milk in the fridge was a huge bonus.

I had a great stay at The Stay Company Friar Gate in Derby. The location was excellent—easy to find, with clear instructions for accessing the accommodation. There were plenty of amenities nearby, including local shopping and a good selection of restaurants. The access routes were convenient, making travel simple.
The accommodation itself was ideal for a couple. It was smartly fitted, well-maintained, and had everything needed for a comfortable stay. Every aspect was thoughtfully covered.
If I were to suggest improvements, they would be minor and more personal preference: a king-size bed would have made the experience even better, and perhaps a slightly larger sofa for added comfort. However, I understand these are limited by the size of the property.
Overall, a great stay and highly recommended.

As with all properties from this company the accommodation was very good with everything needed. The location was a little noisy.
Good parking, easy collecting keys regardless of time.

Long Weekend
Our first impression was the cleaning in the bathroom was rushed. An obvious long black hair in the sink. Also the wet bathmat in the middle of the bathroom floor.

I thoroughly enjoyed the welcome card that was left on the coffee table for me. I felt safe and felt very at home.
Close to local pubs and a Sainsbury is a plus!
