You have to check in at Mrs Blodgets, a few doors up from the Aparthotel on Duke St; no great deal. Apartment itself, on first appearance was clean, tidy and looked really nice, the cleaners obviously make a good effort. Start to look closer though……. There was a big damp patch right above the bed, like there had been a leak from the room upstairs and possibly some mould there too, and they havnt bothered painting it. Mould around the window sill next to the bed. Grouting in the shower needs renewing, it was mouldy and black and I wished I’d brought some flip flops to stand in the shower, not that it was an issue in the end as turns out the boiler had broken the day before and no one had bothered to mention it to us, so when we went to get showers on day of departure guess what- no hot water AT ALL to get a shower with. Rang the reception who said they’d had a few phone calls that morning about it and had an engineer coming out but they didnt know when it would be fixed, however I had found out from talking to another guest that the hotel had known about this problem the day before so why didn’t they tell us upon booking in?!?!? So no hot water, the heating didn’t seem to be working either, but the room was clean (other than the mouldy bits) and location is excellent. I don’t think Id go back, sorry.
