Great location. Excellent for walking into the city. Felt safe there and no issues whatsoever with noise. Communication excellent with owner Martin. The flat is a little worn and I would remove the word amazing from the description. Carpet in hallway needs replacing. Microwave inner was undesirable. Floor tiles in bathroom are loose. The apartment is roomy. Bed is comfortable but very low to rise from. The lift was welcome so no lengthy walk upstairs. Bath was very clean. We visited Leeds during a heat wave so maybe our experience would be different to others but we tried to stay away from the flat as much as we could. Due to the thermostat showing 33. Took an extra fan. There’s one provided too. Even though advertised as 2 balconies the patio door/ bedroom door to the side one are both locked and no keys provided. Bought a cotton sheet to drape over the sofa as that got very hot. Having some draught through may have helped with the heat. The windows only open as small way for safety reasons.The balcony from the kitchen was great to cool down on. It’s in the shade in the afternoon. There’s two chairs and table out there. The outside space was a bonus. I booked the apartment as parking was listed in my search requirements. Not until the few days before arrival was I then aware the secure parking was at 20 extra for the 2 week days in the carpark opposite. It’s a good multi-storey though. Only 2 levels so you can see your car from the flat.

Very convenient and spacious apartment - the only one on the 5th floor. Lovely to be able to sit on the balcony in the very hot weather, as the flat was quite hot. There is a fan but it wasn't particularly effective. Plenty of storage space, a huge TV and big living area. Comfortable bed. A few minor niggles - the flat feels a bit tired. Loose carpet in the hall, and loose floor tiles in the bathroom. The bathroom extractor fan did not seem to be working. Some of the venetian blinds were in poor condition. The freezer needs defrosting (unable to open the top drawer at all), the pans are hung very high up and a shortie like me can't actually manage to put them back up, though not a problem to unhook them. Rather short of biggish bowls for serving food. There is no obvious electric plug near the desk area. None of these issues would stop us from booking again if we return to Leeds, It's a great flat and with a bit of a freshen up and attention to detail could be stunning.

Great penthouse apartment close to city centre and next door to a multi-storey carpark with plenty of parking spaces. (If you drive there, this is a significant benefit.) Getting in: host Martin sends you a code to gain access to the building's small lobby, where you have to locate a key box and enter another code to get hold of two keys: one to get you from the lobby into the main bit of the building; the other to get into the apartment. There's a lift or a staircase, if you'd rather. The apartment is on the fifth floor (if memory serves) and is spacious. You enter a corridor with a double bedroom on the right, a bathroom on the left, and a large and surprisingly tall open-plan living/kitchen area at the end. Lots of large windows. A door out onto a balcony/terrace featuring a couple of chairs and a table. In the living area, there's a large sofa facing a TV. The kitchen area wraps around one wall, has a 'bar' and barstool, and is generally well equipped. When I went, the place was well provisioned. The kitchen had all the cooking staples - salt, pepper, oil, sugar, breakfast cereals etc. and even fresh milk in the fridge. There was washing up liquid and soap, and soap/shower gel/shampoo/loo rolls/towels in the bathroom. On departure, I was asked to lock the door to the apartment behind me and drop the keys through the letterbox. Easy. The place is a little 'tired' in places, but that's nitpicking: it served my purpose perfectly. Good for a two people.

Convenient to city centre and felt safe, clean. Siiting room was large. Breakfast in the form of milk and cereal boxes provided. However it was more of a tired city 5th floor flat than an amazing penthouse. Some amenities did not work.. eg washing machine, coffee machine, cooktop didnt switch on, tv glitched and was not connected to internet, and furniture was broken... blinds, bedroom drawers.
