This apartment was more than we needed for our 1 night stay but very appreciated. It was clean and had all the amenities. The vegan bakery down the street was amazing. Centrally located, we walked to the beach, to parks and restaurants.

Hottest hotel in Aberdeen.

The hotel is very run down and many things are broken. Toilet seat broken. Aircon didn't work so asked to move and was given a fan. The room was unbearable hot.

Very accommodating when we had been refused our booking at the Siberia Hotel basically for being English. Turned out to be a good thing. Immaculate, well equipped room and friendly helpful staff

Noisy location

Very noisy location with a town hall bell opposite that rings four times every hour till 11pm, that and a pub on the ground floor and night time revellers in the street till about 3am make it not ideal for a good nights sleep.

Really quite a good property - once I was able to gain entry. Corner apartment was very large and nicely appointed. This is the best accommodation I’ve had - and infinitely better than the hotel in Edinburgh with an elevator that didn’t work and uncaring staff. The only minor complaint was that the washer was unstable during the spin cycle - and the street side windows were very dirty. Otherwise excellent!

Good stay

Best room I've had in Aberdeen (not saying a lot). Spacious, and the most comfortable bed I've ever had in a hotel. Very central, walking distance to anywhere. But the building is old and squeeky, and you could hear the neigbours walking and closing doors. Also, every time a bus or large vehicle passed by on the street, the floor was literally vibrating. I missed light curtains, I wanted to block view without blocking all the light. Also wish there had been a do-not-disturb-sign to hang on the door.

Enjoyed our stay, was nice to get away for a break. Did find someone’s perfume and clothes label in the room. The sponge we received for cleaning our dishes had already been used by someone. Considering the price for a night which I’d say is a little high you’d think every apartment would have new sponges for new residents. Considering all of this I would return to the apartments as this isn’t my first time staying with yourselves and I do love the apartments. Staff are a bonus as they were all very polite and kind.

Great suite, but the check-in desk was unstaffed when I arrived, so I spent a very irritating 20 minutes out on the street, unable to get through the locked door leading into the hotel. The phone number to call for assistance was not working on my 1 phone. They need to fix this; check-in should not be so difficult. How about a simple door code?

Stayed one night, room was a good size but the kitchen had cupboards that were broken, things hanging off of the wall, there were broken bits and the floor was in need of fixing. It was noisy and there was no soundproofing. Anyone walking passed the room sounded like to door was open, bed was also in need of replacing. Generally in need of an upgrade. Although staff there when you check in. No one there after hours, just a number to call.

The hotel was in an ideal location, easy to walk to from the train station and in the right position for all amenities for shopping and entertainment. The apartment was clean and comfortable with all essential items needed. There’s plenty of places to eat and drink and there’s Tesco extra close by if you have forgotten anything. Enjoyed our stay very much and wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
