Excellent Value for Money
Pros:

A very clean room with ensuite in the High Street Canterbury. It is over a pub but it was very quiet when we were there on a wednesday evening. Ear plugs are supplied if noise is an issue. Very good toiletries and towels. Good coffee machine.

Cons:

The room could be noisy, I imagine, on a Friday or Saturday night but why not stay in the bar til late. We love our tea in the morning but the coffee machine does not provide water and there is no kettle. I would prefer tea to be provided rather than just coffee.

Fabulous - am looking forward to staying again when down that way !
Pros:

Extremely clean, modern, fresh and a delight in comparison to many of the outdated hotels in the area, that need more than a lick of paint - this is a hidden gem.

Cons:

The bars in close proximity might upset some people - but to be honest the music from them was off by 10.00pm - so was totally acceptable for me (and it was good music to listen to)

Pros:

Die Lage war super, direkt in der Innenstadt. Die Wohnung war ausreichend groß und schön eingerichtet.
Parken ist in direkter Umgebung sehr teuer, aber der Vermieter hat uns einen Tipp gegeben wo wir kostenlos parken konnten. Zu Fuß 10 Minuten, also kein Problem.

Cons:

Die Matratzen auf den Betten waren sehr,sehr weich. Unsere Kinder fanden das toll, aber für uns waren sie sehr unbequem.

Agréable et confortable
Pros:

Très propre. Appartement confortable et hyper pratique pour explorer la ville, faire des allers retours.

Cons:

La chambre qui donne sur la rue est plus bruyante le soir à cause des pubs en bas. Mais c’était déjà précisé dans les commentaires.

Lovely stay in the centre of Canterbury
Pros:

The property exceeded our expectations, especially with the living area. Kitchen was fully equipped also with coffee and some snacks. Bathrooms had lovely toiletries, and everything was super clean.

Cons:

The hot water was not enough for 3 of us to shower back to back. Also, it got a bit noisy on a Friday evening as you are on the high street but the property had ear plugs if you needed them. Other than that all was great!
