The location
The host came at 9am on day of check out banging on the front door asking why we hadn't left yet check out was 11am, when I explained this she agreed with me but told me 'most people leave before now on check out day' I politely explained we would be out by 11am. She then returned at 10.45 banging on the door and when I opened it she exclaimed check out time now.
Check out instructions were lock the front door and leave the key in the lock box no where did it say I'd be shouted at and have a man and a woman take the keys from me and push into the property at check out.
Property also lacked sufficient cutlery
Yard is not a yard it's a 3ft by 5ft concrete space with a can full of cigarette ends on the windowsill smokers may appreciate this as a non smoker that wanted the space for children as it says in the listing we were disappointed

It was very clean and the host had fantastic communication.
There were all the amenities required and it was lovely and warm.
It does need updating as a few things inside are damaged and the cistern is causing a smell. Not bad with the door shut.
The parking gets full so we had to find elsewhere for one evening.
It is a loud street with music and cars going by late into the night. There was unfortunately fighting outside during our stay. The police came out and we informed the host, who was apologetic.
It must be recognised the last point is uncontrollable for the host and is just for awareness.

Felt very authentic, situated at a good location. Near to Hanley and Stoke On-Trent station
The beds were all uncomfortable. If you are really on a tight budget, then it's not a bad option. If it's like 40 euro per person.

Clean and comfortable stay.
Very warm, cosy house.
Heated up very quickly.
Very well equipped.
Tv in the sitting room. (Could be bigger/modernised)
Seperate dining table.
Bathroom window wouldn’t close/lock fully.
Stairs are very steep so our oldest guest stayed on the ground floor - no issue for us but maybe note for future guests.
Metal Beds can be quite noisey when turning over.

Spacious
1. There are cables just hanging out
2. The beds are really squeaky with one slight movement
3. There was rubbish under the beds when we arrived
4. On the day of check out (which is 11) I was sent an messages saying when are we leaving which made us feel like we were being rushed
5. The settees are so uncomfortable it feels like you’re sitting on rocks
6. There’s a constant draft with the doors closed which made it cold 24/7
7. It constantly smelt of cat wee
8. The lights didn’t work properly, especially around the stairs

We stayed as a family of 6 for two days whilst visiting Alton Towers. It was 30 minutes away so location was great. Liked the parking permits, although finding a spot to park proved difficult. The complementary coffee and biscuits was a lovely gesture although have our group drank tea. The bedrooms were roomy and smelt so clean.
There was an awful smell coming from bathroom or kitchen, neither were particularly clean and there were a lot of small black flies and ants around. The sofa's were not really comfortable neither were the beds. The stairs leading up to the first floor were very narrow and steep.

Location close to town
Wasn’t clean (rancid milk in bottom of fridge, it stank so had to wash that all out, spilt drinks container under one of beds), all of the beds were unbelievably squeaky, none of the blinds actually fitted the windows, no toaster, all seats in lounge were horribly uncomfortable. We cut our visit short as just a very poor place to stay.

AVOID AT ALL COST
THIS PROPERTY IS NOT FIT FOR RENTAL
1/The area is squalid and unsafe
2/ The property is squalid & unsafe. It is not fit for rental. Hall smoke alarm broken, walls broken, pipes exposed, wires hanging, furniture broken, lights flickering, window broken, upstairs bedroom heater not working, mattress springs sticking into your back. Mould around bath/shower.
3/ found a USED CONDOM in the bin. Open chocolate left under bed and drawer which our young children ate 🙈 floor was sticky and had a baby crawl on it.
4/ only 1 car parking permit was given instead of 2 so we had to move 1 car away from the property in an unsafe neighbourhood with a disabled child.
5/ the property stunk! Bad smell of sewage and there flies everywhere.
6/the fridge leaked water.
The list goes on….
Property manager basically said you get what u pay for… so for anyone reading this review your money is better spent at the local travelodge, holiday inn, premier inn.. even if it cost bit extra.

Lots of space, minimal but value for money was good
Area, doesn’t help when your neighbours tel you it’s not a good place for a B&B or a holiday home as it’s the ghetto apparently. Lots of noise, not very comfy beds, lack of parking and internet was awful, but creepy that back door is so difficult to unlock and lock and outside of home isn’t much to look at

The flat was good for an overnight stay. Very clean. It was quiet and neighbours were very polite when we got there.
There was tea/coffee etc available for us to use which was very welcome after a 5 hour drive.
Towels provided in every bedroom.
The stairs going up to bedrooms were extremely narrow and steep. The top landing had quite a dip in the floorboards. Going into the 1st bedroom on the right was very strange. The floor dipped to the left of the building by a good 3/4 inches which meant all the furniture was also slanted. There was a double bed, but whoever is on the outside is definitely rolling off the bed. (I did, twice) Very strange feeling walking on such a gradient.

Lovely clean house. The owner of the property is very prompt with any information that is needed for the stay.
An upgrade of the mattresses on each bed would make this stay absolutely fantastic. The mattresses are spring and appear not to have changed in a long time, so they can feel uncomfortable. Other than that, a recommended stay at an affordable price 👍

Was nicely presented, clean and tidy plus the host was super friendly, diligent and helpful.
The beds were REALLY creaky. Also, between 5 adults we had 2 towels that were big enough to cover all your bits 🙈

Bedrooms great, clean and comfortable, great house. Very good value for money. Just the neighbours let it down.
A lot of noise from neighbouring houses. Music loud till late at night. Really loud! Shouting at 5am.
No plug in bath, but couldn't get hot water to work anyway.
