We've recently stayed in Blair's flat and had not had a pleasant experience as we hoped.

First it has only one bathroom with a toilet. There is technically another washroom with a shower, but we ended up not using it because it smells mold inside and generally dark. For a group of 9 people with kids it was a real challenge. We never tried a Jacuzzi, the water pressure is to weak and it takes too long to fill enough for the tub. We were provided only the leftovers of shampoos and no body wash.

Second, but equally uncomfortable, the flat has only one real bed in the master bedroom. All others are low quality and similarly low comfort folding beds. Even kids were complaining about the springs coming through the mattresses.

General cleanness is also questionable. We found a pile of dirty plates in the cardboard, no surprise since no dishwasher detergent were provided. On a second day of our stay the plumbing problems had occurred and we had to deal with a late visit from a neighbor. Carpet throughout the apartment showed a lot of stains and wasn't vacuumed properly before our stay. The towels, bed linens and bathroom were clean and nice.

The building itself seems pretty worn out. Inside the flat the renovation had been made only to the bathroom, living room and master bedroom. Two other rooms, considered to be bedrooms as well, in need of repair with dirty walls and peeling paint. In the middle of one - huge dining table (convertible to game table) with chairs, which we can't use on this setting and ended up moving to the living room and then back at the end of our stay.

Kitchen is functional, but it would be nice do not have to see the pile of household items dumped in the corner. It was also out of trash bags and no instruction for the garbage were provided.

The building situating on a busy street and near pubs with outside seating in the yard - which means sometimes it's too loud on late evening or early morning on both sides and in all bedrooms even when the windows closed.

Blair was attentive, polite and trying to address our issues. We contacted her right away, and got one set of body wash and exactly three dishwasher tablets very next day late afternoon. She took care of the plumbing malfunction next day as well. We even got two bottles of wine from her which was very nice.

The kids enjoyed the pool/tennis table. The flat is walking distance and close to the castle, but from a tourist perspective probably not in the tourist part of the town.
