    Was a little noisy at night from people walking home after closing times and the family living upstairs BUT if only staying for a couple of nights it’s not the end of the world.

    Amazing location! One minute walk from the centre, so convenient.

    There was nothing that we didn't like about the property or location. Having visited Bath several times, usually staying in a hotel, we would definitely stay and recommend this airbnb to others.

    The location was great, right in the centre of Bath. We also liked the car parking facility and found the car turntable a real novelty but a fantastic asset to the property!

    The bed is very uncomfortable and the sofas have no cushion to them at all, you just sink in. Don’t know if you open windows as when it gets hot to air the flat.

    The location is the best, it’s in the centre of town. The kitchen and bathroom are very well done.

    The cups where really small, we brought a couple of mugs to have a proper cuppa. The bed was a little hard but great for a couple of nights.

    Fab place, the apartment was lovely and in an excellent location and to a really good standard. Hosts where great and the apartment was really easy to find, with the hosts info. Parking was great. The apartment was heated and comfy. Great kitchen, loads of storage in the bedroom. Great bath.

    As stated in other reviews, the noise at night (from people walking by the bedroom window) was a little bothersome (for my spouse) but not unexpected, as the location was in the city center.

    Perfect location and the availability of parking was very handy! Very clean, comfortable, and had all of the amenities that were required for my short stay.

    Minor things really but there was no dishcloth or jay cloth to wipe down the worktops, so breadcrumbs had to be swept off the tops with our hands and couldn’t be wiped away! No outside light as approaching door so couldn’t see the keyhole after dark (note to oneself to bring a torch next time)☺️

    Perfect location, cosy apartment with car parked right outside apartment making it so easy so to load/unload the car.

    You will need to expect revellers at various hours of the night walking past the property as you are so close to the city centre.

    The location was second to none. The property is perfectly situated just off the main streets in the city and only a 4-minute walk from the Roman baths and Abbey.

    The outside light didn’t work so was a bit dark when we returned late . Would have liked a dishcloth (jay cloth) to wipe sides down. Was noisy the first night with people walking past outside, 2nd night not so bad .

    The property was very comfortable and nicely decorated. The location was great , city centre a few minutes walk away . Parking was made so easy with the turnplate in the courtyard.

    While mostly clean, there were areas that required a little more attention (loo seat encrusted with old urine stains, oven quite grubby). If the flat above is inhabited it’s very noisy, can hear people talking as well as heavy footfall. When empty - quite peaceful.

    Brilliantly located, central for all of Bath city centre. Very adequately set up for 2 people. Excellent to have private parking in the city centre.

    Location is perfect, short walk to the Roman Baths and Abbey. Able to park our car securely right outside the property too so no extra parking fees and easy to unload and reload our bits. Apartment had everything we needed, was all clean, bright and very comfortable. Lovely deep bath and a good separate shower. Would definitely recommend to stay here and very much hope to visit Bath and book to stay here again.

    The first night there was a lot of noise from the apartment above going on until 2:30 in the morning. We contacted the owner next day and they explained we should have contacted them as they would have contacted the tenants luckily they left that day and the night was much better.

    Great location in the centre of Bath 5 minutes from main shopping centre. We stayed for the Christmas market which was a short walk away. Good facilities which were clean and all in working order. Very helpful owners. Parking although it was a tight squeeze with a VW Passat driving down the entrance.

    Was quite noisy at night, sounds from the street, but also wasn't helped by the flat above having a party until 6am, so we were kept up by music, singing, and footsteps. Could have done with a small welcome pack with instructions on things like where to find the switch for the oven, and the lights for the bath, and maybe some recommendations for restaurants etc in the local area.

    Great location, very handy having the M&S just around the corner, and we were able to walk everywhere. Private parking was a bonus too. The flat was well lit considering it is a basement flat, and it was lovely and warm when we arrived. The Christmas tree was a lovely touch too.
