All the information was easy to read and follow. Parked up and got in easily.
Nothing
La posizione,i letti molto comodi,il parcheggio
Le porte si chiudono da sole,lavastoviglie non funzionante,non sapevamo come accendere il riscaldamento perché non c’erano istruzioni e l’assistenza non ha mai risposto.
The location
We booked and paid for the executive suite but we were downgraded without refunding the extra as they promised .
Lots of space
Fire doors constantly slamming shut
Very clean comfortable and well equipped.
Very squeaky doors going from room to room
Wir hatten ein großes Appartement.
Leider war das Appartement sehr dreckig. Auf dem Tisch sowie den Stühlen lagen noch Krümel, ebenso auf dem Boden in der Küche und die Badezimmer waren auch nicht gerade gut geputzt mit dreckigen Rändern in der Dusche und am Waschbecken. Die Toilettenspülung ist die ganze Nacht durchgelaufen und allgemein hatte diese nicht wirklich gespült. Die Ausstattung war insgesamt sehr altmodisch und abgenutzt und auch die Ausstattung der Küche war sehr dürftig. Zum Teil waren Töpfe und Besteck dreckig in den Schränken gestanden. Der Parkplatz wurde ab einer gewissen Uhrzeit sehr voll, wodurch man dann nur noch schwer einen Parkplatz bekommen hat.
Correcto
Falta de información en el check-in, tuvimos que llamar por teléfono y esperar 20 minutos al teléfono para que nos atendiera alguien y luego si que nos enviaron por mensaje cómo hacer el check-in
El parking de coches
Éramos 5 y no había ni una silla para cada uno tampoco había menaje suficiente
La casa è grande ed ha due bagni. Si trova al secondo piano senza ascensore. Mancano un po' di cose in cucina, le pentole e le posate sono poche e manca la tovaglia e i tovaglioli. Le porte non stanno aperte.
Strutture pulite
Très bien
Comfortable apartment. Clean . Good facilities including washing machines.
The main double bed was not comfortable. Two singles mattresses too small for the bed base .
Where it was at
When we got into the place it didnt smell clean it smelt like cat piss and they was cobwebs on the curtains the shower was broken and it wasnt really clean at all and they was no tray for the cooker to cook on
Great location
Average condition although a little tired. Check- in could have been more welcoming!!
Fácil aparcar en la zona de los apartamentos.
Never got breakfast as it was a Saturday and the reception is closed on weekends
Shower was low pressure bed wasn’t comfortable very noisy outside with ppl and traffic I wouldn’t recommend a family staying in the apartments
Location was exactly what i wanted however i wanted a ground floor apartment and was allocated a top floor apartment
The bedroom cabinets were quite dusty. The kitchen equipment was poor for example the handle on the potato masher kept falling off. Also a few items of crockery and pans were not properly cleaned possibly by previous occupants
Pulita e nuova
Nulla
Shower cubicle needs updating. Doors slammed, need weighted doors.
Absolutely nothing, it's a dump!
Everything. The smelly bins, the residents smoking and drinking outside, the smelly fish & chips shop next to the property, the filthy entrance, the old tired and filthy apartment, the squeaky floors, the dirty carpet's, the things growing in the trash can, the long hairs on the bathroom floor, the fire alarms going off, the antique TV...and the list goes on...what a dump! A serviced apartment that the staff "clean" once a week, and cleaning is something they don't do! When emptying your own bins the smell is horrendous at the common trash cans outside...I hope you can hold your breath! I bought cleaning products and air fresheners to try and make the apartment bearable but still ended up leaving early and paying an additional £400 for alternative accommodation.
The apartment was clean, spacious, and quiet; furthermore, it was located in a great, peaceful neighborhood.
Appartamento grande e ben attrezzato, cucina con lava-asciuga, ottimo il parcheggio privato e gli autobus a poca distanza dall'appartamento. Nel complesso tutto molto buono.
convenient location
poor quality fittings and annoying doors
We have used The Spires several times over the years and always enjoyed the experience.
Perhaps the furnishing could be a litter lighter but not a big issuepeace
Excellent location with easy parking. Quite rooms with comfy beds. Clean facilities and very helpful staff
Location was perfect for us
On main road so couldn’t really open bedroom window.
Location and price was ideal
Nothing did what we needed.
Information for. access disappeared from the email link.
Location, facilities and cleaness
Clean and great location for us. Great views.
The stairs to the apartment. We were on the 4th floor and no lift.
When we stayed night was clod no heating worked , I have reported in the morning but nothing happened
No heating worked and the time we was there it was cold night
Excellent in every way. The accommodation is comfortable and clean. Location ideal and with free parking. The staff are very friendly and helpful, something that is not very common these days. I highly recommend for anyone that wants an apartment stay over a hotel stay.
Big apartment, well equipped,good location close to supermarkets and restaurants. Lots of car parking.
Needs an update.
Tuvimos que hacer aquí una reserva en el mismo día de la estancia, ya que nos habían cancelado la que teníamos en el último momento. La atención por parte del servicio de 24 horas fue excepcional, rápida y fácil de seguir, además de que la trabajadora que nos atendió fue muy amable y comprensiva. Las instalaciones también fueron excelentes. Muy recomendable
Kompletne vybavený apartmán a kuchynka. V kuchynke práčka a umývačka riadu. Parkovanie pred ubytovaním. Check in nám spravila pani na recepcii, ale info sme tiež dostali v maily,
Možno schody na najvyššie poschodie nie je tam výťah
Handy location, good living room with comfy sofas and separate kitchen. Eating options near by.
Heavy self closing doors. Decor maybe a little bland and dated
Location, with parking, only 7minute walk from our relatives. Very spacious and well appointed apartment.
There were no UHT milk portions on the tea/coffee making tray so when we arrived at 10:30pm we couldn’t have a cuppa, or one first thing in the morning. We could have done a load of washing though, as there were a couple of washing liquid capsules. Maybe an oversight, but disappointing. Bathroom: Shower head doesn’t stay upright and floor tile in front of the WC moves when stood on so need replaced. Both things would be easily fixed by maintenance team. Just a tip, unit 43 (Block F) has traffic noise from main road so bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper.
Location and price and cleanliness
Perfect place for my stay, very easy drive everywhere. I will be back for sure.
Ok value
Blood on sheets and towels!tv didnt work had to tune it in ourselves cheap uncomfortable furniture
The apartment is situated very close to a coop and Tesco plus 1 restaurant and 1 cafe and is a short walk away from a lovely park, which made the stay all the more enjoyable. The best thing about the stay was the 2 lasses on reception and how kind and helpful and understanding they were with us and our situation of being 9 months pregnant and waiting to get in to hospital accommodation, they really put our minds at ease and were so helpful and understanding with booking extra days when needed.
Excellent location gor the Aberdeen squash club opposite as I was playing in a tournament. Spacious very clean and very comfortable.
Nothing really
Location , value, flexibility
I have no negative feedback
Handy , good parking
Wee bit overpriced
Easy Self check in , location , parking
Great location and nice roomy apartment.
Bathroom a bit dated and shower wouldn’t change angle so soaked floor (reported this though). Also no coffee making facilities just sachets of Nescafé. This is a clincher for me, sure other folk won’t be quite as concerned 😄
The apartment was clean and there was everything you need.
The bath had very slow run of water and the shower was not very powerful.
It was quite spacious, which was nice. Bathroom was clean and good.
It wasn’t horrible, but not very nice either. When we arrived, the whole flat smelled strongly of some kind of perfume and there was still wet towels in the washing machine. Kitchen was poorly equipped and several of the mattresses had stains on them. While the apartment was quite spacious, it felt small and almost claustrophobic since the doors were impossible to keep open without propping them open with bags and heavy things. Since we were at the ground floor, it felt a bit insecure at times when there were crowds of other guests standing and smoking outside our window while we tried to put the kids to sleep. Again, it wasn’t horrible but we would not stay here again nor recommend it to friends.
The convenience of self catering with advantages of apartment over a hotel room.
Dirty pans in cupboard that needed washed before use, broken kitchen equipment, broken toilet flush, broken shelf in fridge door, lack of and broken cooking utensils - no casserole dish or baking tray, bare minimum amount of cutlery and glasses, kitchen blind broken and plinth on cupboards fell off every time you opened the dishwasher.
Location and easy access to city centre
Doors are making noise, need lubrication
Stayed here 2 years ago and was disappointed on our return. The price has gone up and the quality has gone down. Cleanliness was below standard with the grill clearly not having been cleaned at all. The kitchen was really poorly stocked. We had about 20 spoons but only 3 forks, no chopping board, no baking trays etc. Reported this through the Spires website on our first day and got no response in the 5 days that we stayed. Fire alarm was set off while we were there and it took over an hour for someone to arrive on site to reset it (thankfully, the fire brigade were there quicker).
Great location
A few things in the apartment need attention
Good, clean and comfortable
No USB charging points. First time in a long time that I’ve sprayed somewhere where there were no sockets with integrated USB points. I only had leads with me.
Sufficient space
The heating system failed on the first night but they fixed it
There were cobwebs in the property and generally it wasn't very clean. Breakfast bowls with wheatabix on them, unwashed. No cooking utensils expect for one spatula. How they can offer the property with kitchen and no utensils for cooking it a joke. Carpets I guess had recently been replaced, it's a pity the doors hadn't been altered to accommodate the new carpet as they were difficult to close.
When we arrived I did not have all the bedrooms I paid for. Once we were able to figure out how to contact our hosts, as we were using US phones so we were unsure how to input the phone number, they took care of the situation and were very apologetic and helpful. The fire alarm went off in another of the apartments, which rang in each unit in the building, and continued to ring for quite some time. I'm not sure how often this happens but from the information left on the kitchen table it sounds like it might not be a solitary occurrence. The photos didn't seem to be as accurate as I would have expected.
L emplacement
Tout d abord rentrer dans un appartement froid n est vraiment pas agréable. De plus il n y a aucune instruction pour mettre le chauffage en marche. C est également assez bruyant puisque on entend les véhicules extérieurs depuis la chambre. Enfin, il y avait des problèmes d évacuation au wc. Cela fait beaucoup. Très décevant.
easy parking, easy access and very helpful staff when I lost something. Turned the apartment upside down for me after I left and kept in touch. Very clean apartment and comfy bed.
Plenty of space for the 5 of us. Good size living room and kitchen. Showers were golf too. Close to where we needed to be. Plenty of parking
The single beds were a bit narrow.
N/A
Very dated, beds uncomfortable
Location & plenty of parking.
The flats was seriously warm & no fans or anything to try & cool them down. The windows all opened fully but we were 3rd floor & there was no safety catches on the windows & with 2 young children it wasn't the safest!
Value, location and helpfulness of the staff were really good.
The bed was not comfortable, it didn't suit our needs, if it was one adult, it would have be en ok, well definitely book it again, if it's just myself
Very clean, great facilities and friendly staff. Dog friendly and will stay again.
Cracked tiles and a bit tired looking in the bathroom. Bed could have been a bit more comfy.
I really appreciated staying here .the apartment is cozy within a calm area.family friendly Administration was helpfull and kind .cheers guys
Excellent location to town, just a 15 minutes walk. We were in Cardiff for a Xmas Business meal which was so much fun! The rooms were big and clean with their own en-suite each. The kitchen was a good size with a lounge and TV area. Our dogs were very comfortable too! Richard on reception was very friendly and managed to secure the last parking space for us. Remember to book these in advance if you want parking at the back of the hotel.
It was fine for a small crew of guys to stay over night but probably not something we would book for pleasure. It did the job and was clean.
Good location and easy access to the property
The heating could be better
The bed was too hard
Spacious
Nothing
Excellent location for where we were going. Good value for money had everything we needed.
Heating did not come on till 5pm, middle of November in Aberdeen it was freezing. Heating never came on at all at 5pm in one apartment, phoned for assistance and got the matter sorted by a very friendly and helpful assistant. Once heating on apartment was lovely and hot.
The property is situated not far from the city it was clean comfortable and staff were on hand if you need anything.
Nothing it was all good
The worst hotel I've stayed at in years (decades?). Dirty carpets, both stained and in need of a hoover. Loud traffic noise from adjacent road. mysterious locked room in the flat didn't set my mind at ease. As a single woman travel I didn't feel safe. Left as soon as possible in the morning .
Location
On arrival (19:30) heating system not running, our apartment only. Kitchen window had been left open.
Nice little apartment. Came here with my wife to deliver the baby.
There was no lift that’s something to look for. Don’t forget to ask for ground floor if you have luggage
Ótima localização, limpo, cozinha bem equipada. Roupas de cama e banho novas e de boa qualidade. Ficamos em um apartamento no bloco B.
A calefação não funcionou. Ligamos para o número da central e pedimos ajuda conforme orientação. Informaram que um funcionário iria dentro de uma hora, o que não aconteceu. Passamos a noite com muito frio. As instruções do check-in, principalmente do estacionamento, poderiam ser melhores.
Nice area
A bit dark
Women’s in reception so friendly and helpful.
Bed not comfortable.Windows very dirty.
Fantastic customer service and a great apartment. Great stay, I had the exec studio - would highly recommend! 5 star rating.
