    It was a bit noisy on the Tuesday night. We are right next door to a pub which had a DJ night until 2am! Couldn't have our windows open. Second night was fine. Front door didn't close/ open properly as it needs fixing or replacing.

    The rooms and amenities. Lovely welcome bits. It had everything we needed for our stay.

    Parking was a 10 minute walk which wasnt made clear. Noise levels from being in the centre were loud. Didn't help that the accommodation was hot so windows had to be open but I am sure they would have made a difference with it's secondary glazing. More portable air con units would have solved this as one bedroom had this

    Clean very good facilities. Excellent in fact. Beds are comfortable, kitchen facilities are great, two bathrooms made things really easy. Good system for checking in

    I wish that the doors stayed open without the required door stops because it made the apartment feel closed off. There was loud music at the bar in the back on a Tuesday night until 2 am. I wish I knew that was a possibility in advance.

    I loved the location

    Clean apartment , great value for money for a family of 6. We had a wedding to attend so this apartment was only a 5 minute taxi journey to the venue . I had read previous reviews that mentioned noise from nearby bars . The windows helped keep the noise out and our sleep wasn’t affected at all . Outside noise could be heard but not that bad to complain about . Lovely comfy beds and great location to nip to the shops.

    Directly opposite a pub/nightclub. Music until 2.00am. I was expecting some noise from a city centre accommodation however it felt as though we were inside the club itself. If I had known this I would have booked their sister accommodation.

    Well equipped, milk and cereal to start you off. Clean and tidy. Nice big bedrooms and showers were good.

    The apartment is surrounded by pubs, so it is very noisy till around 2.45am, which has an impact on one's sleep. Though the company provided ear plugs but that didn't help me. I didn't read the review about noise before booking.

    The apartment is spacious and clean. Thanks to the company for the breakfast complimentary they provided.

    This stay company location is a city centre location situated in between pubs so not suitable for those looking for peace and quiet. The hallwaylights have infrared sensors that are very sensitive meaning they keep turning on and off also at night when everyone is in bed. But if you shut your bedroom door, it is not a real problem.

    As always great welcoming atmosphere as per stay company. Everything is clean and in order and the welcome pack is really a treat we look forward to every time.

    A bit noisy because it is situated beside busy bars, however you are staying in a city centre so have to expect that and the Stay Company do provide ear buds as well as other gifts upon arrival.

    As described, clean, secure, central location. Very well equipped, the complimentary gifts such as, cereals, milk, teas / coffee along with soaps / shower gel etc are a very welcome addition. Will definitely recommend

    Location was excellent. Raza (the Stay Co. rep) was very helpful on the phone. On this review, the 'what I didn't like box' wont allow me to type anything in! So the only concern was that I did not know about paying a £300 deposit for the two apartments. However, I was refunded it very quickly after vacating the property.

    We found the place extremely noisy in the late evening as it is situated between two very popular and lively pubs/ venues. Music ends at 2 am on Fri and Sat throughout the year. Customers and taxis leave loudly until around 2.30 am. Earplugs and eye mask are provided for all guests at the house but it didn’t do the trick for some of us. This is a great house for those who want the night life!

    The location for exploring the city was excellent. The place was light and clean. The hospitality tray including cereals, hot drinks, milk and water was a lovely touch. The Stay Company staff were so helpful and kind.
