  : After getting over our initial disappointment, we saw that the apartment was clean, comfortable and largely functional. It was modern/contemporary in its presentation and proved to be quite homely for a couple of weary travellers wanting a touch of home living. The kitchen was quite impressive for its cabinetry but our needs were simple - to make toast/have cereal, keep some essential basics, and to boil water. We can't comment on the stove or cooktop and the utensils provided to use them. The bed and pillows worked well for us and the linen was nice, the heating was perfectly satisfactory, the lounge comfortable and the "smart" television was a nice size. Having Netflix readily available was appreciated. The apartment was in a great suburban location with a straight walk to all the shops, restaurants, cafes and all the things you could want, a comfortable 5 to 10 minute walk away. Extending the walk a few extra minutes takes you to Windsor Castle and a few minutes more will take you to Windsor Riverside railway station for an easy day trip into London. The car park at the rear was very welcome and the small container of milk in the fridge was a nice touch.
  : Entering from the carpark was a little depressing with the landing at the rear door unkept, the floor tiles down the narrow corridor looking like they hadn't been cleaned for years (partly due to the deliberate "dirty" pattern of the tile as it transpired) and then entering the apartment to find windows were a little lower than natural ground level facing pathways to the carpark, meaning blinds had to remain down for privacy. It felt like a gloomy and discomforting end to our British tour staying at luxury hotels. Unfortunately, we suffered a failure of the water heater for a day but a call the apartment manager helped to create a working solution, and the internet was unreliable and very frustrating/disappointing for my wife who wanted to watch a Netflix show but found it struggling to load leaving long periods of an effectively blank screen. One night she gave up on all hope of a movie restarting. Another oversight was that there was nowhere to hang wet towels, such as a hook or hooks on the bathroom door and the bathroom sink was so tiny there was no chance of storing anything on or under it. A coat rack at the door would have been useful, especially after walking in rain.

  : Very clean and comfortable. Well equipped
  : Hot water didnt work the first morning. Had to contact the owner. Sorted quickly but the next morning the hot water failed again half way through my shower. My husband didnt get a shower. Welcome pack was missing. Did arrive after I complained but the housekeeper implied it was my fault that it hadnt been delivered. I had been advised I could leave off luggage after 12 .Only 2 bath towels for 3 people. I expect not to pay full price or any service or goods that are faulty. Would have expected a partial refund.

  : Location within walking distance to heart of city, onsite free parking and breakfast provisions - milk, big loaf of bread and shortbread etc.
  : That we were in a basement room so facing a wall and not as private but at least not facing main road. Room itself was well appointed and comfortable

  : Location was a short walk to shops, restaurants and attractions. Tim owner/manager was very helpful and responded to queries quickly. Ability to have a private shuttle to Heathrow (which was on time) was a bonus although cost is high. Ability to securely store luggage after check out was very advantageous.
  : Shelving in shower would have been nice and lighting in living room was dull although kitchen area was well lit. Our apartment was lower ground and although very comfortable, the lack of natural light made it dull during the day.

  : The apartment was lovely, kitchen well equipped.
  : The parking space No.2 was in the corner, and defo tested my driving skills - this is not a negative comment as I do have a big car.

  : Location was good - we were there to attend the Coronation Concert at Windsor Castle so were very glad to have accommodation close to the event.
  : When we arrived (rather wet from the main Coronation events in central London) we were extremely disappointed to find that there was no hot water for showers - eventually found how to boost the hot water. We were also disappointed to find there was no milk to make tea/coffee on arrival.
