Thistle Apartments-City View Apartment

We had a wonderful stay. Everything we needed was there and we had easy access to shops. Good place to stay.

The mattresses are very good quality and this apartment has a nice size lounge. The kitchen and bathrooms have been refurbished recently.

We booked No. 74 as it was more central than our usual place on Cranford Road. The gentlemen on the phone were very helpful and good to speak with. Our plans had changed due to weather and instead of arriving on Friday I arrived on Saturday at 6.20pm. I had given an hours warning and although they had turned on the storage heaters an hour before the apartment was very cold. The apartment was clean and perfectly comfortable but the bathroom had no heating of any kind and was as cold as an ice bucket. The internal hall was similarly very cold. I had a bath in the morning and the hot water ran out after filling one bath. There were no instructions regarding how the hot water worked and if I had not boiled a kettle I could not have washed any dishes from breakfast. Knowing that someone was to be staying and it was wintertime I would have expected the apartment to have been heated for far longer although I appreciate that we had indicated we would not be using the apartment from Friday until I decided to stay on Saturday evening. This apartment needs to be kept far warmer in winter if anyone is staying and the hot water seems to need to be checked that it produces enough for potentially 4 people. I would only recommend the apartment if the heating was on for a decent length of time before anyone arrives.

We had a lovely weekend at the City Apartment. Clean and comfortable . Location excellent - ideal for walking or bus stop very close by . Customer service was excellent.

The City View Apartment is nicely situated near Union Street, but in a quiet area. Our sleep was undisturbed by any background noises. We definitely appreciated the free parking space and the general layout of the apartment. We also appreciated not having to organise a search party to find the apartment as we were already met on the street!
