The location of the property was excellent for us, close to Drakes Circus.
It was spotlessly clean & we were offered an early check in on request. The beds were very comfortable and we had plenty of towels.
Lack of basic items - no teaspoons, only 3 glasses & 3 mugs when 4 of us were staying - we didn’t report it as we were only staying for one night so managed with what we had.
There was no lamp in the second bedroom so we had to borrow one from the bigger bedroom. There are locks on every door in the flat apart from the bathroom door.
There are a LOT of steps within the flat - bear this in mind if you have young children or mobility issues. A new building has been built on the back of this one so the bigger bedroom, bathroom & kitchen have windows but these are not openable or able to see through.

We picked this property due to the proximity to the university and because there was free parking and these were the best elements to the property. It's very close to the city centre so most things are within walking distance. I was worried this would mean it was noisy but it really wasn't. We didn't hear the traffic at all. The apartments was lovely and warm and the beds were very comfortable. The automatic lighting downstairs is handy (but it came on randomly during the night and woke us due to random window into the hall).
The property has obviously been renovated which leads to odd placement and random windows that serve no purpose. You can also see evidence of the renovations with some elements being lovely and others poorly finished. The rooms were really clean but stairs were a bit grubby. The shower was at best 'warm' and couldn't get the temperature to go any higher. There are lovely big wardrobes but no hangers to hang anything. The kitchen is generally well equipped but there was no tea towel to dry dishes and only one teaspoon. There were only 4 mugs (fine for us as only 3 people) but as it sleeps 6 this might not be enough for other people. The living room would also be small for 6 people to relax properly.

The apartment was clean, very spacious quite easy to locate and very close to the city centre and University. The beds were comfortable. The living room was cosy with comfy setees. Bathroom was clean and well stocked. Kitchen had supplies and complementary tea cofee milk and biscuits. There was a freshmatic along the landing that gave a nice subtle aroma. I would not fault the property at all.
No issues at all

The location - we could walk to the waterfront, and the comfortable beds.
There was no hot water - this was fixed quickly though. The shower floor is extremely slippery (needs a non slip mat) and it is extremely slow to drain.
The movement activated lights woke up the other person in the middle of the night.

Large 2 bedroom apartment, well equipped kitchen with washing machine which was handy as we needed it unexpectedly
Although the sensors for the lighting is a good idea the ones on the staircases kept switching on and off all night with no one leaving the bedrooms.

Good location, quick to fix problems, good kitchen, very responsive staff, the owners have the Chinese takeaway at front so you are looked after, also they don't stiff you over for a security deposit which never gets refunded. What you pay for on booking.com is it.
Need dustpan and brush or a hoover. Can't clean floors.
Sides of the sofas had a lot of debris in.
The flat is opposite a goth pub, it was really noisy on the band nights.
Flat needs some upgrades, like a toilet on top level. Three flights of stairs in the flat.

Great location literally minutes walk away from drakes circus, a free parking space, spacious accommodation, clean apartment but also bedding and towels are clean, easy check in and check out with clear instructions provided! Tea, coffee, biscuits, milk, body wash all great touches. Mattresses comfy!
We came in the summer, the main bedroom (with 2 double beds in) the windows aren’t actually windows they’re blocked off, so no light or air comes in through them meaning the room was boiling, we had one fan provided but due to the plug positioning in the rooms we couldn’t position it for all of us to feel the effects of it. Multiple fans would be really beneficial in the summer for that room, or perhaps having air con fitted in that room. The other bedroom with the working window was nice and cool.

Excellent location, walkable to Barbican and town centre and free parking.
Very clean, good facilities. We had an issue with hot water, I rang the host and someone came within 15 minutes to fix it.
Would recommend and would book again for visits to Plymouth
Stairs, not suitable if you have mobility issues

Great, central location; within easy reach of the Barbican /Hoe /theatre. Easy self-checkin/out. Plenty of space and facilities for our one-night stay. Great, swift communication with Booking staff.
The night time motion - sensor lights were a little annoying, and parking for more than one car would have been useful.

Close to the city centre, free parking.
A lot of stairs, living room smells of stale cigarette smoke. A lot of noise from the main street but that isn’t the fault of the property.

Well equipped apartment, good location with ample parking and comfortable beds at an affordable price.
A lot of step steps up to flat, followed by a very steep staircase inside due to being on a split level, not suitable for young children as also had an open banister.
The living room was very small and too small for family’s or large group of people as a communal space which was a bit disappointing.

Fantastic stay at a centrally located apartment kitted with everything needed for the short stay. Parking just outside which was great. Will be returning when next in Plymouth.

The l9cation was great, near centre, The Barbican was walking distance. The flat was huge split level. The process of checking in and out was great. Kevin was at the end of phone
Tye only thing was sensor lighting when in bedroom. It comes on constantly and glass at top of door. Fine once asleep
7.0 / 10.0
The location was great, the bed was comfortable, the shower was lovely. The property is more like a 2 bedroom house than a flat as it is on 2 levels with bedrooms upstairs and living room, kitchen and bathroom downstairs. There is free parking right outside the door.
It was so cold when we arrived as it was frezing outside and I don't think anyone had stayed in the property for a while. The heating is either on all the time or off all the time so there is no timer function and the hall and landing are very large and not heated but we put the heating on and kept all the doors closed and eventually the rooms with radiators in warmed up.
