The apartment is clean and comfortable. Great location, few mins walking distance to the mall and supermarket. The apartment is noisier than we expected, many buses pass by the main road, can hear clearly what the people talk on the street.

This apartment is in a perfect location. I even got a free upgrade from studio to one-bed. The view from the window wasn't very attractive, but the property is clean, well equipped and comfortable. Easy check-in instructions.

In need of a major refurb! Also, a lot of noise and light from the street, so bring ear-plugs and and eye-mask!

Good value.
The location is great, just 10 minutes from the main train and tube station and next to all the shops.
The place was clean and it had plenty of kirchen utensils. My studio faced the back of the building which meant i got the sunshine but not the street noise. I would have preferred black-out curtains as the blinds are great for privacy but the sunshine will wake you up in the middle of the night.
Like any other hotel, once the neighbours start turning in for the night, you can hear all the doors shutting.

Communication on how to supply ID / pay deposit wasn't as clear as it could've been.
The bed wasn't the most comfortable and was very squeaky.
The location and business on the ground floor meant we were woke up promptly each day at around 6am.

I've stayed here a few times now and every stay I have the same issue with the television not working or being available. It's a shame that this makes this accommodation no good. I'm travelling for work, so the basics matter. I've just cancelled 8 weeks of bookings after experiencing 3 weeks of the same problem.
