More golden than blue!

All good; a few minor things but overall it was as expected. Having a ready available kitchen was good and the heating was adequate for late March weather. Access was good, just a short walk from the bus stops on the Glasgow road.

Perfect location, perfect stay

We had a great stay here. It's in a good location with a bust stop just round the corner. There's also a 24hr Mcdonalds and a greggs a few minutes awy, which was perfect for my teenage daughter. The flat has eveything you'd need. Ironing boars and iron came in useful. There's plenty of space, it's clean and tidy, with quirky decor that's a bit Banksyesque. Loved it. Thank you
