Fabulous apartment, clean, comfortable and great location.
Pros:

Exceptionally clean and great location. Lovely Arran aromatic products too. Very comfortable stay. Lovely decor too.

Cons:

Lack of crockery.. three mugs for four people and not enough plates. Meant that we could not all have coffee together.

Lovely apartment in a convenient spot, with great commication from Juliette.
Pros:

The apartment is in a great location, it’s super cozy and comfortable. It’s stylish too. Perfect size for 4 people and 2 small doggies. It’s clean too! Juliette contacted us to ale sure we had everything we needed and were settled in well. This was very much appreciated given our 38hr journey home from a conflict zone!

Cons:

There isn’t anything we didn’t like. Even the puppies like it too. In fact, we’re bookmarking it for future trips to the city.

Em geral tudo muito bom.
Pros:

O apartamento é super confortável e tem uma localização perfeita. De 5 a 15 minutos andando você consegue conhecer os pontos turísticos da cidade.

Cons:

Eu não sei se é o apartamento em si. Mas como o período que fomos estava chovendo e ventando muito, senti o apartamento frio mesmo com o aquecedor ligado.

Almost perfect...
Pros:

33 Castle Terrace is in the most fabulous and central location.
I would rate this property 10/10 if it hadn't been for a key issue.
Communication before our stay was wonderful and the messages were fabulous. We loved the fact we could drop our bags off before check-in. We arrived about 11am and put our bags in the safe place. We then went out and enjoyed the rugby and got home around 1am. We went to unlock our bags from the safe place and the code wouldn't work. We entered the correct code around 100 times but it did not work.
This was extremely frustrating and meant all four of us had to sleep in our night out outfits. Had to sleep with our make-up on. Couldn't get a toothbrush. Couldn't get our retainers for our teeth etc. It just was a rubbish end to a night out as we all had to sleep and wake up feeling disgusting. We phoned / messaged / texted the owners and got no reply for hours - until about 8am ish. We managed to get our bags out.

We don't understand the logic of having a code to get your luggage but it not working during the night? I also think if you are spending a lot of money on accomodation then the owners or a property manager should really be contactable at all hours. Imagine it had been a flood or a more serious issue and we had to wait at least seven hours for a response. I am all for life and work balance but a night manager or someone should be available.

The appartment is gorgeous. So clean, spacious and well decorated. It is completed to a very high standard.

Please note we parked in the NCP just round the corner which is so handy and safe but it was over £35 for parking so be prepared for that hefty charge.

Has so much potential but didn't quite exceed our expectations.

Cons:

Fully explained in my lengthy answer above. Please read the statement above explaining lack of luggage.
