The unit itself was really good. Location was close enough to the city, sits on top of 2 supermarkets and had a number of food and coffee options nearby.
The neighborhood may seem a little dodgy to some at first sight but personally there were no issues for us. The building, car park and lift areas are all secured for residents only.
For convenience and value for money, I can hardly fault this place at all. It was clean, fittings worked and was spacious enough for my group of 6+1.
While the host was not contactable by phone at the check in time, this was due to a small hiccup which was probably a one off. Staff was physically onsite but we had a little trouble finding her which was not her fault.
The only real issue is the check-in time. I found it too inflexible. Even though I paid for a extra day (earlier), I was still not able to check in earlier than the standard 3pm. The extra day was therefore cancelled and refunded.
To be clear, my early check-in request was not in the wee hours outside of typical work timing, but at 12 noon. IMHO, if you pay an extra day, just to check in the 3 hours earlier, this should be well within reason. However, there was 0 flexibility, which was alas, disappointing.
Nevertheless, if check-in time is not an issue for you, I’d have no qualms staying in this place.
