There were no toiletries in the property and and the water had a distinct smell. It was a below par experience ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2018 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 2 Jul 2018 Liked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### The company doesn't care about its clients For the second time in the span of 3 weeks they mixed up the keys for self-check-in so after taking a bus, the tube, a train and a cab to get there, I wasn't able to check in. I had to wait by the door with my luggage until someone from ESA brought the spare key. After 20-30 minutes someone let me in the apartment but wouldn't let me keep the key so I was stuck in the apartment for another hour or so until they brought the correct keys. Because of the above, I wanted to speak to a manager to make sure this doesn't happen a 3rd time since I stay there often. The first day I was told the manager went home so I will get a call the next day. The next day I got a call saying that the manager is busy that day but will call the next day. It has been more than a week now since I should have received a call and the manager hasn't done so, therefore, I am writing this review to make sure however chooses ESA is very patient and doesn't expect a hassle-free stay. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tony, Spring Hill, FL 11 Jun 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Nice apartment close to downtown Newbury. Only a 10 minute walk to my mum's flat. 2 bedrooms. Nicely furnished. TV only picked up one channel. Did not see any housekeepers. Wanted to change out towels because washer/dryer is really small.
