    We had no complains!

    The house was comfortable, immaculately clean and well equipped. The location was on a little side street about 7 minutes from Quakers Friars and the Cabot Circus shopping area. Plenty of restaurants, cafes and small supermarkets within a few minutes walk.

    The property is clean, tidy and very nice. Like the living room and kitchen on top floor with the view. It is licated near the restaurant and groceries. Just 5-10 mins walk to city.

    If I was being picky, I'd say the parking was a bit of a hassle. Difficult to get parked close to the house (about 300 yards away) and while Tim was excellent at sorting a free permit, we only just got parked in the one space available. I appreciate this is something that the host cannot really change! The area is only a 10-15 minute walk into the centre of Bristol. On a separate note - again something that is out of the host's control - the area around the house is a bit run down. I had no problem with this. It's the kind of area that is covered with graffiti - most of it tasteful art, some of it not. I have read one of the other reviews saying the area was "rough". There is some homelessness in the area and the smell of cannabis on the high street but nothing that you wouldn't get in any city centre. I would say have a look on Google street map and make your own mind up but we didn't have any problem even walking back late in the evening.

    Excellent communication via booking.com messages with Tim. Usually responded immediately to any queries and very helpful. Much more helpful than any hotels we have dealt with via booking.com. The Old Wire Factory is a lovely house on three levels. Modern facilities, modern and tasteful decor and as a family of 4 adults we had a great time. I would stay again without hesitation. The kitchen and living area is on the top floor and there are two double bedrooms on the middle and bottom level. Modern clean bathroom on the middle floor also. There is an Amazon Alexa in each bedroom and also the living room and the TV in the lounge area has Netflix, Prime, and all other apps for you to relax.

    The location is within walking distance to Bristol centre. Around corner you'll find some lovely cafes and restaurants. Probably suggest catching Ubers however at night time into city and back rather than walking.

    Really stylish property perfect for two couples! Great location for a walk into the city, with a nice row of cafes and bars to enjoy during the day! Despite being quite a busy area on the weekend, the house is well soundproofed so I weren’t disturbed. Helpful to be able to have the ability to park as well. Bathroom really modern and spacious too!

    Nothing!

    We loved every minute of our stay at the old wire factory. Like Bristol itself, it is quirky, arty & upside down with the living area upstairs. The area itself was extremely quiet yet only a short walk into the centre. It is spotlessly clean & beds are very comfy. I highly recommend a stay here & would come back in a heartbeat. Good job Tim!

    Car parking was tight at times

    Everything you could think of was provided, and all was warm, clean and working well. Nice touch with Amazon speakers on each floor. It's situated in an interesting area with multi cultural restaurants close by. Bristol is Banksy's home city and there's plenty of colourful street art in the area.
