We stayed with Pat over the course of a week at both units in The Bachelor’s walk complex. ( Modern apartment in the City Center. Great City Centre Apartment). The units are very similar, in different buildings in the same complex but are next to each other so this is a review of both places.
We would give Pat and the convenient location 5 stars, but are only giving it 4 stars because both units face the back of the academy nightclub. We agree with previous reviews about the noise and presence of what seems to us to be late night pharmaceutical activities and loud non- family friendly banter after 3am. If the academy wants to truly discourage this activity, they should install a rolling door in their trash alcove. I am a heavier sleeper than my partner but we highly recommend using earplugs as others have suggested and brown noise on the Alexa as the lower frequency helps with the club music. Again, Pat is a fantastic and responsive host and the place was immaculate ( except the “Modern” unit did have smoke smell as others have also noticed). The courtyard access to the units always seemed safe as you are only on the back street (N Lott) for a short distance, but if you are a single woman, be aware of the late night activities further in N Lott St if that type of thing concerns you.
