Irina contacted us a day before to advise that she would not be able to meet us in person but everything would be ready and the keys left at reception with the 24/7 porters. We made our way to the lifts through a security controlled door and up the lifts. This a very big building with over 400 apartments so we started off with a long walk along the corridor. the apartment has the main door which is a level higher than the living areas and kitchen. The Apartment was as described and the space reflected in the pictures is accurate. The Location is excellent...choice of supermarkets within 100 meters, easy parking in a secure garage at a charge of just £17.50 for 24 hours or £110 for a week and gloucester tube station just 300 meters away if you don't have a car. Irina left us a bottle of wine and a basket of fruit which is a very nice touch. The place was immaculately clean and had a nice fresh smell to it.

Overall we were comfortable and pleased, however the apartment is showing signs of age and could do with some TLC.

Overall the place is Spacious, cozy and convenient as titled.
the kitchen and the bathroom however do need attention and with less than £200 spend would make a big difference to the overall experience. I have a background of the hospitality industry spanning 28 years and tend to pick up very easily on the missing details.
