I've stayed there twice now on each visit to Plymouth. The rooms have been refreshed, clean and the area is generally fairly quiet. The location means you can walk to the Hoe, Barbican readily, and the Drake Circus is 5 minutes away. If I return to Plymouth, I'd readily come back!! And the staff are great :)

Great value.
Accommodation was great value and comfortable. We appreciated the space, cleanliness and facilities. Location was great for the city and Barbican being right between them. There were some great eateries and pubs local. Little noisy in the surrounding area on a Friday and Saturday night but to be expected in a city area. Would stay again given great value b

The room was comfortable but upon entering the room there was an unpleasant smell. I couldn’t work out if it was sweaty feet left over by the previous occupant or if the linen had hung around damp to long before being dried.

MINOR suggestions
The stay was lovely. Just a couple of TINY ideas. It would be helpful if there was a shelf in the shower & maybe a hook outside the shower door for the towel. Also a bedside lamp would have been good. The lights were very bright, even the "less" option.

This beautiful building is very centrally located and within walking distance to amenities and attractions, it has three floors and 41 apartments of varying size. Upon arrival I was greeted on the intercom and provided details via text for self check in. The cleaners were still preparing rooms when I arrived but mine had been completed, having spoken to the cleaners who were extremely friendly, polite and welcoming i found out where I needed to be and where the facilities were. I must say as the first people I met the cleaners left an excellent impression on me. Beautiful Bathroom with walk in shower very, very clean and modern. Floors are very creaky! Very big double wardrobe with two hanging rails and seven shelves, plenty of room for storage and clothing. Single bed was a good size, extremely comfortable mattress and the duvet sank around you when you laid down. Reading lamp for night time reading, or TV which swivels round so you can comfortably watch TV in bed. Lovely kitchenette which is very well equipped with a hob, cooker, grill, fridge, microwave/Combi cooker, kettle toaster, cutlery and utensils and the room has black out blinds. Carpets need updating, they are clean but they don’t feel clean, bed linen was a little worn which is a shame as the room I had was immaculate, modern (apart from carpet) clean and extremely comfortable, although the TV was quite high on the wall (although I did enjoy watching it in bed).

Location is ideal. Close to shops, bus, train and within walking distance of mall, food stores and some attractions. Laundry can be done. The only thing is that it is not suited to the differently-abled.

Our kids loved it had everything u could need Kitchen also was very well equipped microwave, fridge kettle toaster plenty cupboard space cutlery new sponges even fairy liquid and sanitizer left for us The location is excellent literally opposite town centre 2 min walk and very close to the Barbican 5 min walk plenty of pubs around us. I especially appreciated the clean towels bedding, tea towels left every morning on our floor reception ( outside our rooms) to be taken if u wished to replace . Overall an excellent stay no noise very quiet and peaceful no noise from other rooms very clean modern and a fantastic stay we will be rebooking next yr

Great stay
Check in a check out was super simple, great communication. The room had everything we needed and was clean and comphy. The only negative was the room smelt a little of damp, which I believe wascoming from the kitchen/ sink area. The location is great for getting around Plymouth, but the only downside to the great location is that it can be noisy at night with traffic and people coming and going from the pubs/ nights out. Would definantly stay again but would request a rear room away from the main roundabout if possible.

Outstanding. The room was spotless and well maintained, as was the whole property. The bed was really comfortable. The apartments are a stones throw from shops and amenities & just a few minutes from Plymouth station. Above all though was the friendliness of the staff ; Everyone of them I met was helpful and cheery. I highly recommend this place.

Stayed for three nights while waiting for covid test results to come back. On the unit that I stayed at, it was good for two people so it was very spacious for just me. A lot of wardrobe spaces, work table, comfy chair, workable basic kitchen (microwave, cooker, toaster), comfy bed, and spacious bathroom with amenities. Great communication with the team - no problems with checking in and checking out. Requested for extra toilet rolls which was provided immediately. Great wifi connection especially i was working from the unit as self isolating. Great location - very central and bus stops within 3-minute walk. The flat was clean. Plus for me was a clean bathroom. They also Provided anti bacterial wipes!My only concern was i found a small very tiny spot on the towel and stain on the bed sheet - i should have asked it to be changed but didn’t bother. Overall, very very good stay and highly recommended!
