Booking says we will be met at property if we arrive before reception closes. We arrive and noone is at reception. We call a number and I am reprimanded by the voice on the end of the line for not checking my text messages or answering my phone (I had obviously been driving). This is not the way to treat guests.

We reached out to you several times to ask for an arrival time. Your telephone number was submitted incorrectly. On occasions guests do not arrive whatsoever and this was pointing towards this. . No mention about the lovely large unit I placed you in to make your safe box arrival very quick and easy to get to get too....................Always one..............

DON’T BE PUT OFF BY THE AREA! The area is very industrial but the apartment is not. Space inside the property was huge! Comfy furniture and was reasonably clean and tidy. Property needed some touch ups here and there but nothing terrible.

Maintenance
The place was great but i think it could do with some maintenance. The paint in the 2nd bedroom and the bath seals gone so it leaks. But these didn't spoil our stay

Nice apartment but requiring some urgent changes.
Aparatment is large, nice and it is in a good location. However there are some problems which I communicated to the host yet received no reply. 1. Wifi is too weak to stream or taking video calls. TV remote also doesn't work properly to allow the smart functions to properly work 2. Oven isn't extremely slow. Getting to tempeature takes at least 30 mins so trying to cook dinner after work is a very long process.
Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2022
Response from Denny on 9 Feb 2022
Sorry to hear you encountered some problems. The remote control is working fine on inspection and our wifi is usually of good standard and we never received any other mention . I am thinking this could have been an external problem. We have had no reports of problems with the cooker although I will certainly inspect this. I really hope we can house you again and we can ensure you have a more positive stay.

Family Holiday
The apartment was clean and well kept, the bedding and towels were clean and excellent quality. The oven kept tripping the electrics in the kitchen but wasn't a problem once we realised. The only issue was the apartment was booked for 5 people and was advertised for 5 but there were only 4 chairs! We had to use the arm of the sofa for the 5th chair. There was also plenty of space for 2 small children to colour and play out of the kitchen area. We would stay here again.

Don't be misled by the name "Waterview", there is no water view, especially if you are on the lower floors. The rooms are spacious and bright, however some of the sheets were stained, and so were the coffee mugs because there is no dishwasher. The view from our windows led to a parking lot of a joinery. The advertise the place as having free parking, however there are only 3 spots (for 8 apartments I think) and no permits are given so nothing to stop other people from parking there. Since we could not find a space, we had to park a few minutes walk away and move the car as it was only free till 8am. Reception is in the front of the building while the entrance is in the rear so it is quite inconvenient having to do a back and forth. Book this place if you are on a budget, although I paid a steep price owing to the current demand but I don't think I will stay here again.

Fine but needs a refresh
Easy access to BAE and Morrison both within short walking distance. The apartment has all the basics that you need - knives, pots, pans etc. but they all need renewing. I had to wedge the knife block under the frying pan handle because it was so misshaped I had to keep pressure on so it got hot. The classic rental apartment problem of no sharp knives - I mean a knife sharpener costs £10 and you could fix them all! That brings me onto the bed, sleep-able but they need new mattresses and bedding desperately.

Many thanks for taking time to review us. Many of our rooms have had a complete makeover and we are hoping to finalise all of the Apartments by the end of 2021. I will speak to The Housekeepers re the cutlery in the Apartment as we have extra pans in the office and they should be replaced as and when. needed.......... Rest assured we will take on board your points and raise them with Management. ......

The host was fantastic, she was very helpful, but the location and quality of the accomodation wasn't great. It didn't help that we only got there at 10pm and the area didn't seem too safe, especially with two young children. The apartment wasn't the same as the picture, it didn't have curtains and the walls were marked all over. The shower was blocked up and allowed us just a couple of minutes before we had to switch it off to save the water going over the edge of the base. The bottom few tiles of the shower were in need of repair a new grout. That all being said the beds were comfy and the kids loved the big tv in the morning! The host came out late to let us in and she was very pleasant to deal with.
