Surprisingly spacious apartment with excellent, well-stocked kitchen, big fridge/freezer, high ceilings, large pantry and lovely pine doors and window frames. Situated on a quiet street in a respectable residential area.
There is an excellent bakery a 1-minute walk away serving a good choice of high-quality sour-dough breads and pastries. A chippy and corner shop are also within a 1-minute walk. The apartment is just an 8-minute walk (albeit uphill) to John Lewis, St Mary's Catholic Cathedral, the Omni Centre (for restaurants, cinema and pool/gym) and York Place tram stop.
We found getting up and down the staircase with a double buggy and 4 young children a bit tricky, but it was possible, and we were able to relax and spread out once upstairs.
Petrea's communications were first-class. She helped us solve a problem with the wi-fi (it turned out to be a caused by a loose cable) quickly and allowed us to keep our luggage in the apartment until the late afternoon so that we didn't have to pay extortionate fares to store it at the bus station or rail station.
We recommend this apartment. It beats staying in a hotel if you have more than 2 children.
