I booked the townhouse for my friends birthday last month and we did have an amazing stay. The host is very helpful, making our check in very easy. It is perfect for a group of people, big rooms with confortable beds. Lounge area is fantastic, the kitchen is fully equipped. And the hot tub on the roof terrace tops it up. I highly recommend to book this property. I am looking forward to book it again. Thank you :)

Recently stayed at this property during storm Eunice, there was a small leak due to the adverse weather conditions however this could not be helped and did not effect our stay. Host was extremely helpful, property was right in the centre and would highly recommend.

Booked for a hen doo through mojito events for 17 ladies. Given access details well before check in time which was good. All rooms had towels and clean bedding. Lovely rooms and bathrooms. Kitchen area was a bit on the small side but we made do. The roof terrace was lovely, did have a hot tub but unfortunately no chlorine tablets and no chlorine dispenser which wasn't good but was a good hot tub and enjoyed by us. The place was in walking distance to a lot of the city centre. Would def recommend.

Great accommodation before our graduation ball, the townhouse had everything we need and more it was great to use the hottub and chill the night before and after dancing the night after. We had 5 couples would’ve allowed for more if needed. Jonathan was always available and very helpful making the process easier. Would definitely recommend.
