Really disappointing
Pros:

Location was convenient

Cons:

Very poor value for money..the accommodation was very basic, beds were uncomfortable, ridiculously heavy doors with strong springs - made entry and exit very awkward, toilet flush did not work in either room, floors not clean, roasting hot with no effort made to cool them (such as blinds down or.fans). It's poor quality construction and low/no maintenance is reflected in the poor quality and comfort of stay. £221 was a rip.off.for.this property. A full refund would not be unreasonable.

The staff were helpful, but more attention to detail attending to the items mentioned before were make this a great stay
Pros:

It was a well furnished studio apartment, on two bus routes and parking was available.

Cons:

The studio could have been cleaner. The bathroom smelt of cigarette smoke. There were no coat hangers (even when we asked), no tea towels (but we got some when we asked) and little cutlery and nothing at all to cook with even though it had a full kitchen, so we were unable to make use of it.

Friendly staff but noisy surrounding with students shouting until 11.00pm
Pros:

The check in staff were really friendly and showed me to my room which was nice. The facilities were good although i was working so didn't have much time to use them.

Cons:

There were a bunch of students staying and they were shouting all evening. I was about to go and complain at around 11.00pm however the noise did start to die down at that point and the noise completely stopped at around 11.10pm. I was working so although it was very loud and annoying it didn't really interrupt me too much however if I was staying for leisure I would have been very annoyed.

All it needed to be.
Pros:

Location was actually handier than I had expected with a frequent bus service to the city and especially to UCC/Bon Secours Hospital area which was the reason for my trip. Quite clean and well maintained though I did not make much use of the shared facilities.

Cons:

There were no curtains, so light came in between the wall and the roller blind at all times from the courtyard lighting and the sun rise. The bed was right next to the window so hard to avoid. I would bring an eye mask in future.

There was some hair stuck in the main shower head, and some staining on the floor of the bathroom.

Pros:

Parking. Staff were also helpful in securing parking. Private room. Good en-suite. Kitchen facilities - Lots of fridge space. Towels provided.

Cons:

Cleanliness wasn’t up to scratch.
The common areas - the kitchen wasn’t clean or cleaned on the second day of a two night stay. Kitchen area smells bad. Bins overflowing.
Floors weren’t properly clean.
No bins in the bedrooms. No hooks for towels. Overly priced for a single bed with only the very basic room amenities.
