Great quality and good location.

Lovely and warm. Great shower. Very close to the station.

Traffic noise outside the property but luckily I had earplugs.

Great location for short stay

Walking distance to the town centre and football ground. Bed was comfy and room was good for a weekend stay. Great information from Felicity and self check in with codes works great when arriving late. No problems during stay.

Small kitchen area but ok if dont spent much time in room. Car parking space needs more details as to where to find and the exact spaces. Signposted as Aspland apartments and not riverside. Which caused a but of confusion.

Ideal short stay for visiting the beautiful city of Norwich for the first time

* Location for a city trip is excellent; opposite the train station, free well lit carparking nearby and an enjoyable safe-feeling walk into the main areas of the City. * Loads of plug sockets in useful places, well stocked toilet roll, washing up equipment etc * Spacious and well designed layout; stairways and halls were clear and easy to get around; well lit and well kept * Decor is neutral and restful; helpful placement of mirror, cupboards and console to store your own supplies * Bed linens and towels were pristine, overall bathroom hygiene was very good * Shower water temperature and pressure were perfect * Really helpful facilities for a short stay - tv with catchup and netflix; microwave, kettle, toaster, sink, fridge, desk/table, large windows with easy to operate blinds * Easy to access and leave both the room and building secure with key coded doors and instructions for use * Superb instructions from the person who manages the building, so many small details that were helpful when you get there eg exactly where the car park is (it is around the corner and would be frustrating to find if these instructions hadnt been so carefully written); which car space to use as there are several that all look the same. Clearly so much thought had been put into this in preparation and worked perfectly for my visit, as it was my first time in Norwich.

* I stayed in flat 3 which is at the front of the property, right on the main road with heavy traffic which was extremely noisy. Both my Friday and Saturday night's sleep were disturbed by loud arguements/party leavers on their way home from nights out, in the early hours. Nothing that can be done about this but definitely not a place thats suitable if you are sensitive to noise - you have 0 chance of a good nights sleep. Requesting a room at the back might help as the alley, where the car parking is, seemed silent and peaceful. * The room needs a DEEP CLEAN, so many moments of 'ick' eg thick dust on the skirting boards when reaching to a plug socket, loads of scaling on the taps, dairy milk left by previous residents spilled in the fridge and on the floor that I had to mop up, food remnants left in the microwave, both windows and bathroom filter were filthy etc etc * Broken fixtures eg the plastic that should hold and allow movement of the shower head was broken so the showerhead could only rest at an angle at the bottom of the bar, facing into the corner of the cubicle. You have to hold it in your hand at all times and this is awkward and probably wasteful of water. * No one visibly available at the property. Someone knocked on my door one evening and said 'oh sorry wrong door' when I opened it - it made me wonder about safety and what would have happened if they hadnt walked away/who was it etc! a bit unsettling.

They need to replace the mattress and ensure quality control for cleaning.

Location

I encountered several issues during my stay. There was limited parking available, which made it impossible for me to park my car for two nights. Additionally, the toilet seat was disappointingly dirty, and the cups were not properly cleaned. The mattress was old, causing an uncomfortable sleep due to the springs. Lastly, there was an unpleasant smell coming from the bathroom.

3.0 / 10.0

Disappointing, scruffy and poor value for money.

As it was self-catering, I was fine with my own breakfast.

An internal folding door was off it's 'runner' at the top, making it risky to try to close it. This was the access to the shower & loo. The kitchen taps were skew, The kitchen hot water took an age to heat, so it seemed better to heat the kettle for washing up water. The shower fixture was coming away from the wall, so I had to be careful not to move the showerhead. There was a distinct smell of smoke in the room. The white bowl provided, which I used for cereal had a slick of tomato-coloured stain - clearly not properly washed up. It disgusted me. Having read that guests are requested to do their washing up, I consider it to be the manager/owner's responsibility to ensure that later guests don't face this issue. I objected to the sickly smell coming out of the device plugged into a socket. Other sickly smelling devices were evident in the general circulation area between the front door and up the stairs to my room (no5). I wasn't confident that the ironing board was safe to use on the higher setting, so I used the lower level setting.

8.0 / 10.0

Great for a short stay in the city and a comfortable place to rest. I would return 🙂

Location was great for trains, buses, taxis, city centre, shopping, supermarket, bars and restaurants etc. Apartment (No 2) was at the back of the building and away from all traffic noise, so it was very quiet. It was modern, cosy, clean, freshly decorated, comfortable, well equipped with essentials, plenty hot water, easy access. Looked well equipped with heating for winter.

Unfortunately, there was a strong unpleasant smell, possibly of damp. I got used to it after being inside for a short while though. My belongings smelled of it after I’d got home. The room was sufficient size for just myself but for two people it could feel a bit cramped and cause a scramble for the only armchair.

6.0 / 10.0

Good value for money for the location

This apartment has a very good location, near the station, the river and the city centre. Bed was comfortable, and bathroom really good.

Was a bit misled by the description as rather than a one-bedroom apartment it was really a studio apartment. There was also no stove top in the apartment itself, although there was one in the separate shared kitchen.

Great value and location.

Good location, short walk to centre and right by the waterway, well equipped studio type apartment. TV had Netflix! Tea and coffee plus a microwave. Was good value for my needs.

Minor gripes really. Bed mattress was tired/cheap. Heated towel rail in bathroom couldn't be turned off?? (stayed during the recent heatwave)

Great stay in Norwich

Clean, good facilities and friendly comms/contacts.

The only thing missing was air-conditioning on the hottest day of the year, but the fan was fine. Shame about the back of the neighbouring hotel being so scruffy and unkempt.

Overall Good Central Norwich Apartment Stay

Location was fantastic, right next to train station! It was useful to have a kitchenette in the room and a mini fridge for any snacks, etc The shower worked. Nice to have an en suite bathroom. The host was pretty good with communication and checking in, however she did not respond when I made one complaint about the slightly stained/hairy bedding we noticed at the end of our stay when we stripped the beds.

Noise from the busy road outside, but that's to be expected with a central location. The duvet bedding and one interior pillow had a circular light brown stain and several black hairs on them when we stripped the beds and pillows of their sheets and linens, so that was disappointing - especially when we're asked to strip the beds ourselves! One of the mugs in the kitchenette cabinet was dirty on the inside, and I found it like this. Sink in the bathroom only had cold water from the tap, which was a bit odd.

The apartment was fine, just the parking was an issue.

The apartment and location were fine.

There was no parking available. When we booked through booking.com, they said that there was parking available. On arrival i found that there aren't enough spaces so it is first come first served, if i had known this i would have booked to stay elsewhere.

Perfect location for the station, comfy bed for a week

Location is excellent! Even though it's very close to the main road and the clubs, it was nice and quiet. Bed was very comfy, shower hot and powerful. The kitchenette was perfect for little snacks, and being able to use the full kitchen saved us money on Just Eat! Also nice and secure with door codes to each room

The bed covers could have been cleaner, but otherwise no complaints.

Nice little find

Close to city centre, nice area, next to the train station, had everything we needed for a few nights stay, bed was comfy, off road parking was arranged, easy to heat and keep warm, free WiFi, TV connected to netflix,

Wasn't very clean, the floor looked like it hadn't seen a hoover/broom for weeks, rubbish found in the cupboard over the microwave, leaflets from several years ago in the dressing table drawer, pillows were incredibly flat, the curtains didn't quite cover the window letting in a lot of light from passing traffic and street lights

Convenient location, lovely room, would stay again.

Great to have tea and coffee facilities and kitchenette - fairly minimal but everything I needed. Shower room clean and roomy. Access easy and straightforward.

Good room - only point is that the location next to a busy road made it a little noisy on the weekend.

Felicity was a very pleasant host who was a pleasure to deal with.

The property was in a very convenient position for the railway station.

The room I was in suffered from noise. Late in the evening noise from the restaurant next door and early in the morning from traffic, which seemed to include noisy refuse collection vehicles. The room was noticeably small.

Good value for basic facilities

Ideally placed for access to the city facilities. MGREAT SHOWER. Nice to have biscuits and plenty of tea and coffee. Basic self catering which was fine for my needs

My room 1 was next to the main entrance and I would stay in another room if possible as there is no sound proofing into the corridor and the front door slams. The owner needs to fix the hot water in the bathroom sink.
