Good flat with good sized rooms and good light, comfortable place. Big retail park right across the road so handy for shops and buses.
The downside of the retail park across the road is that there is significant traffic noise. We had asked about this at time of booking and was told by the management company who manage this flat that the road in front of the flat was a quiet road to a petrol station. That's not correct - it's a quite busy road as it's one of the main entrances and exits to and from the big retail park. In hot weather with the windows open (and it's a very warm flat for some reason) the traffic noise is loud. Includes buses and delivery trucks to the shops.
The road is also usually a through road connecting two other busy roads - currently closed due to road works. When road works finish it'll be an even busier road and more noise.
The flat was unfortunately not cleaned prior to our arrival - but I think that was out of the control of Evergreen (the company which manages this and 35 other properties) - Barry from Evergreen organised a quick refund of the cleaning fee and was apologetic.
As per another property managed by Evergreen (I read in the reviews) the common areas of this building are in need of new carpets and painting - the stairs and hallways are quite shabby.
Also the bin which was meant to be numbered to enable us to put rubbish in correct bin was in fact not numbered.
All in all, a good flat but noticeable traffic noise from the busy road out front (less so from the other busy road over the back of the car park - to the rear).
One last issue - Barry/Evergreen have a mostly helpful folder of info available for guests and in this they eagerly promote a business which I've not read about elsewhere - saying " it would just be wrong not to mention the company as the owners of it are good friends of ours".
We thought the opposite - it's just wrong to use the role of managing other people's properties to promote this company because the owners are personal friends. Just an observation.
