Jul 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location This property was in a great location unfortunately we went during a mini heat wave and all were incredible uncomfortable night and day so couldn’t use the kitchen at all, there was also no personal touch like list of places to eat and visit and it was very much a hotel feel which is great if you are looking for that, saying all that though if it wasn’t summer i might stay there again in the future just for the location. ##### Rebekah S. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew D. Jun 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing in central location Incredibly located in the heart of Windsor, the property is modern, clean and homely. It had everything (incl washing machine). We stayed with our 12 and 15 year old and the couch bed was fabulous - might not work for all but it did for us. Light and bright we really enjoyed our stay. Added to happiness... thanks Andy ##### Andrew D. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### TH 1. Sep 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The location is excellent, one minute from high street, but on a quiet road, so has advantage of both convenience and is quiet at night. The interior is as it looks in the pictures, spacious, natural light and a modern and minimal design. Had a good sized TV in the living area, and another TV in a bedroom, with Netflix etc. All in all we had an excellent stay here and would recommend. ##### TH 1. Stayed 11 nights in Aug 2025
