The Ashcroft Studios & Apartments with Free Parking

Enjoyed my stay

Nothing

Matt the landlord and Colin at the property were nothing but helpful. Room was very clean, handy kitchenette with fridge, microwave, kettle and toaster. Hairdryer and iron etc all provided. Great stay and highly recommended for an event at Bowler's Exhibition Centre. Easy walk to coffee shop, supermarket etc.

Can't fault it.

Location near to train and tram and free parking.

Unfair criticism maybe but due to the weather the studio was unbearably hot. A fan would have been nice or even opening windows before arrival to get air flowing. Strangely I had to move the heavy microwave as the power cord was not long enough to reach the wall socket. The bathroom sink did not drain and the tv remote was hidden in the middle drawer of the chest of drawers (took a while to track that down!)

Clean and modern . Bed was comfy. Water was hot for showers. Parking was good. Sainsbury’s was handy to apartment.

Heating was not working properly and was unable to operate it due to it being cased in. The caretaker said he’d sort it but didn’t and was freezing every night. Didn’t like being in the basement with one small window with a wall around it . Couldn’t see out at all. Felt like a dungeon. Kitchen window was too high and couldn’t reach the blinds cord. Bathroom mirror too high. Not much cooking facilities in apartment. Steps up to car park were too steep and very dangerous coming down them. Too much noise from creaky overhead floor boards and doors banging constantly, (advertised as sound proof).Fire blanket holder was empty. Needed more shelves in bathroom.
