Pros:

It was a fun, funky apartment superbly located in Bowness on Windermere. Even though we got a lot of rain during our visit, we took the ferry to see Hill Top Farm and explore the Lake District. We took a 10-lakes tour that worked out great for seeing this beautiful area!

Great location and comfortable but poor shower.
Pros:

The Wallstreet Apartment was quirky and fun to stay in.
It was well equipped and comfortable.
The bed was very comfortable, and the location was excellent.

The downside was the shower.
The shower water pressure was very low and the temperature fluctuated from hot to cold for no reason.
We parked our car in the public car park across the road and updated our parking times via the app to keep the car there.
I don’t believe there is a dedicated parking space for the apartments near the site.

Well s
Pros:

A well situated lovely apartment. Initially we struggled to gain entry my fault I’d had instructions since January and did not realise. Loads of gadgets if you’re technical. Water for showers was lovely and hot. We had no issues with noise. Parking was opposite £21 for 3 days but knowing the area we parked on a road 5 mins away.

Pros:

Accommodation was fantastic - location brilliant, tasteful inclusions and the very cleverly themed decors. Parking arrangement was and remains unclear - when we booked showed one space per apartment. Never got an answer. Ended up parking across the road for £21. Wonderful experience but paid parking was a criteria for our accommodation selection.

Pros:

The property is situated in a very vibrant part of Windermere and the rooms are well furnished and are very well themed according to the former bank context. The check in experience is easy! Of note is that the entrance is not directly street facing so you have to look for it. Full kitchen provides options, and it felt like an apartment.

Pros:

Loud music playing until midnight from the restaurant below. There’s an outdoor speaker fitted directly under the window which transfers base into the apartment.
The water pressure in the bathroom was so low and temperature of shower way too hot unable to adjust to cool.
Shower screen is fitted too close to the toilet it is so narrow you can barely wipe your ass.
To finish off the lights were not working so had to shave in the dark before leaving this morning
Disappointed!

Wall Street Apartment
Pros:

The property was very nice with a lot of high tech for heating lights music etc. The problems we encountered were:
The shower lacked pressure, took a long time for the water to come through, then the water temperature was not steady, going from extremely hot to freezing cold and water splashed everywhere. Also although the lighting was set for the ambiance of the apartment, a stronger light was needed by the mirror.

Lovely little gem.
Pros:

Had a wonderful weekend away and this little gem is in the heart of the centre which is great. Very compact&quite small but very cute. Parked car opposite on paid carpark. Decor is beautiful,bit dark for applying make-up ladies and had trouble 1st day with no hot water but within 10mins it was sorted so all good.

If I could give more than 5*
Pros:

Wow wow wow!

“Boutique apartment” really does some The Rockefellers up of which their outstanding reviews do them justice. Nestled around the back of the main road, the property is sleek, modern, well equipped and drenched in luxury. Easy to get to the local “hotspots” with a banging pizza place 30seconds away on foot. There’s no doubt I’ll be back, thank you so much

Enjoyable stay on Wall Street
Pros:

My wife and I stayed in the Wall Street apartment on 5/6 September. Overall we enjoyed our stay and found the apartment comfortable and well equipped…really large and comfortable bed, great shower, 2x large TVs with Netflix and prime (good for rainy evenings), and a well equipped kitchen area. It’s was clean and well maintained. The apartment had some nice feature lighting, however, and this a personal view, the decor was very dark and combined with subdued lighting we found it was not to our taste.

Great apartment. Great design and very comfortable. At least 20 places to eat within an easy 10 minute walk. The lake is also very close. The whole of Bowness is a dream
Totally loved the place.
