Well thought out amenities in the room, everything you needed to properly live there - a very refreshing change compared to other serviced apartments! Well equipped kitchen, solid internet to work, good amount of space with couch available. Really good spot in the city. We extended our stay several times

Easy check-in process, good location. Very useful having a small kitchen in the property. Only downside is that we were staying for a week, noting that the property is not serviced everyday, and the coffee/teas/toilet paper ran out very quickly.

Very nice stay
Beautiful and spacious studio apartment in a good location. Clean and comfortable. Some minor complaints: kitchen had no spatula (but there were other utensils to awkwardly flip my fried egg) and the towel heater in the bathroom could not be switched off so it is constantly heating the room, even when you maybe don't want that.

Very surprised how good room was, there was even a washing machine. I had family meet me in the afternoon at the property and they were blown away by it.. proximity to station and local amenities were very good. Gin bar boat directly outside. And Brewdog bar next door .Definitely stay again. Thank you.

Great value for location with all the main attractions at your doorstep or a short walk away. The apartment is very spacious and I was delighted to find a proper king size bed. No problem with street noise; there was some from upstairs but not enough to really bother us. We were able to unload at the door and had no trouble getting a park at the small but closest NCP Baldwin St car park.

Nice hotel at a very convenient location, near to the shopping area, restaurants. Easy to handle the self check-in, for questions raised can receive the reply quickly. Except that is strange to me that I stay their for 15 nights for 2 person, but only 2 packs of clothes washing detergents provided. 2 set of coffee and tea provided for the first day stay their and the day before leaving. I would except that coffee and tea be provided for the whole period stayed and sufficient clothes washing detergents be provided. And the cleaning provided on Saturday (7th and 14th day I stay there) also strange to me, as I will be leaving the day after the second cleaning. Anyway, the hotel is in good condition, ease to access and I will stay there again for future trip to Bristol.

Beautiful flat on the heart of Bristol
Lovely, quiet property, right in the heart of Bristol. The flat is beautiful, with lots of places to sit and chill. Complimentary soaps, coffee and tea, and they had even chilled a decanter in the fridge for me to put water in. Lovely attention to detail! I booked this last minute, so it was really too big for just one person, but I would imagine a group of friends or a family would have lots of fun here.
My only complaint is that the higher speed WiFi didn't work and the smart TV wasn't connected to the internet, do I couldn't use any of the apps.

The apartment was clean and well furnished with ample wardrobe space and a very comfortable bed. Good shower and quality towels and environmentally friendly toilet paper. Heated towel rail could use a thermostat/timer as hot round the clock.
The area is in the midst of a very lively night life culture, and we slept with the window open. The street noise doesn't abate until the wee small hours, but the company have provided an ambient sounds device so we were easily lulled to sleep by the sound of lapping waves, so much so that when the seagulls started squawking at 4am it didnt seem uncongruent. This is our second Saco stay (after Cardiff) and I am happy to recommend the company and the accomodation.

Nice accommodation. Comfortable and clean. Great location.
The area is quite noisy, the dripping tap was complained about but not repaired. It was very complicated to ‘check-in’ staff were v helpful but will not repeat a booking
