Great 2br 2bth apartment for good price. Slightly further back from the river than I realised. Parking on site is super handy. We did however get a passive aggressive note on the windscreen of the car from Quest- about parking in a Quest guest allocated park without a yellow tag displayed. We never got given a yellow tag at check in. Room also smelt. Great cafe next door for breakfast.

Property was great, beds were very comfortable, everything we needed was there, only thing was the ironing board was broken when I went to use it, and the fact that you had a lovely coffee maker there for us but no milk was a little annoying.
