This was close to being a nice property, but there were a few things that let it down. The cleanliness wasn't great- there were a lot of stails on the carpet, a lot of the cupbaords were partially off their hinges, and the there was a persistent sewage smell in the bathroom. Also, the mattress was very springy and saggy and not comfortable, and there was a stain on the sheet. The mezzanine area depicted in the photos was used for storage, with an old mattress and broken lamp up there.
There was also a lack of attention to the arrival experience. There wasn't a guest book or information about the Wifi written anywhere. We eventually contacted the host for the password, but this was tricky because there is no service in the building. We had to leave to find enough signal so that we could look up the number and send her a message. A guest book, or even a sheet with the wifi on it, would have been appreciated.
On the positive, the location was good and parking was available. But overall, this place needs some cleaning and repair and some attention to the guest experience.

Location was excellent and parking was good
The apartment was clean but it didn’t smell very nice. I think it was the shower drain.
Although an apartment for 4 people it only had 3 mugs and one of those was badly chipped and shouldn’t be used. There were only 2 small water glasses .Each bed only had one bedside lamp.
Overall it was not comfortable and I expected better

Accommodation information is misleading, pictures are not reflective. The Wolsey is accessed through a back entrance off a small car park. The only ground floor window is the entrance door which faces the car forecourt, no openings. The Wolsey has no access to the rest of the period building. The room rate is very high given the low standard of bed/mattress, towels and cleanliness. There is a significant drain odor that permeates the entire area. Car parking space is not guaranteed, the general public use the car park. This is likened to student accommodation.

A very nice and modern apartment with all the facilities and very smooth check in process.
Very close to the center and everything accessible in a walking distance.
A couple of minor things to be improved to make the stay even better.
Slightly more careful with the cleanliness as were some spots needed more attention but not something that is not possible to stay in.
The toiletries should be supplied in a daily base or provide sufficient for the stay.
We stayed for two nights and the 2nd day we run out of shower gel.
