This is a comfortable little flat, ideal for a couple, and in a perfect location for exploring the city, there are bars and restaurants all around, and a quirky market literally next door. We walked everywhere - the Cathedral, Museum & Art Gallery, M-Shed, SS Great Britain, Temple Meads Station, and shopping centre - all within 10-15 minutes. Yes, there is some noise from the street on weekend nights, but it is also good for people watching, and the bedroom is pretty quiet, although we did hear some neighbours coming home in the early hours. For convenience there are supermarkets a few minutes walk away, and we ate at Beirut Mezze which is 2 minutes walk away and was very decent; there is a smart looking Italian restaurant downstairs as well.
The main thing to be aware of, as others have mentioned is that the entrance is via an alleyway that serves as the back door and bin store for the restaurant, which gives it a certain scary charm, whilst the communal areas (lift and landings) are in a pretty poor condition with possibly the dirtiest carpet I have seen for a while, but once inside the flat itself it is fine. We did raise a few quality issue with the Host which hopefully he will address to maintain the standard of the flat, which is clearly very popular.
