location to town was very good
internal noise, if anyone moved in the night it could be heard throughout the house.

Clean and tidy with comfortable beds. Close to the city centre.
Pointing around the bedroom windows would help to reduce the noise from the road. Having a fridge that you can stand a bottle of milk up in would be helpful as well.
7.0 / 10.0
The house had a good bathroom to guest ratio and the showers worked well with good pressure and hot water ( although see below as well). Bedding and towels were clean and plentiful. The bed and bath rooms were spotlessly clean..The living area had plenty of sofa seating, and a good supply of glasses, mugs, plates and cutlery and cooking saucepans and ovenware. The online house book was comprehensive. And having a key code on the front door was a godsend rather than having to share a key between seven. When we arrived the property was toasty warm. Location means that the city centre is a few minutes walk, as is access to the city walls; whilst access to the main route to Wales and out northwards/eastwards is excellent.
Despite the double glazing, noise from the dual carriageway ring road right outside was pretty loud. The house itself has squeaky stairs and very thin walls. The double beds were mainly 2 singles fastened together which gave a ridge down the middle from the two mattress edges meeting. The singles all seemed to be 2ft ones, so narrow for a normal adult. There was no drawer or wardrobe space for storing clothes. The kitchen had very few cooking utensils, no coffee machine nor cafetière, very few bowls. The fridge was very small for seven people (and the property slept up to 10). And be aware that the oven heats up very slowly. There was a dining table but only 3 chairs. When we arrived and unfolded the dining table it was covered with lots of sticky wine glass marks. Likewise the rug in the living room had lots of bits on it and also quite a few hairpins, presumably left by previous guests. Most of the metal ovenware, as well as the plates and cutlery were smeary and needed washing before use. I expect a higher standard of cleaning between stays.
The property is not suitable for anyone with limited mobility - there are steep, quite narrow steps up to the door from the street and stairs in the house to all bedrooms. You cannot park outside even to unload as the property faces directly onto a dual carriageway. Parking is a few minutes walk away in a multi storey car park and there are charges.
Finally, on our second morning we woke up to no heating and no hot water. We called the property manager first at 08.25 who were prompt at answering, but one of the party still had to wait in until about 11.25 for the maintenance guy to arrive and fix it (which he did, and was very friendly).
All in all, a good property for a party of active people not intending to cook much for themselves, and who don't mind living out of their suitcase.

Adam was extremely helpful from start to finish. The accommodation was a good standard beds were comfy and the accommodation had everything you needed.
Close to all amenities and the lovely city centre.
The road noice was quite bad double glazing would make a huge difference.

Close to everything
Bedrooms were small with beds crammed in. It was great for the 5 of us that stayed but would be very cramped with 12 people. But this property is great for a good place to stay if you need a clean bed for the night.

Great location for town centre. There where 8 for one night plenty of rooms, beds 2 en suites and a bathroom
Car parking we where playing golf so we had take the club's out the car every day . Just in a awkward position to load and unloading a car. Stairs are quite noisy
10.0 / 10.0
We were very impressed with the property, so close to multi storey car park, so close to Chester centre, kitchen/lounge area was well equipped and a lovely social space. Plenty of bathrooms for our group. The only thing was the road noise at night, but you do inform us of that when booking. We will definitely return when visiting Chester in the future.
Nothing not to like. Only the road noise, but this is unavoidable.

9.0 / 10.0
No keys but a keypad and code with the code emailed prior to arrival.
This made it very easy to check in and out.
Great location next to the town centre.
Accommodation was clean and had all amenities working and in good order.
Outlook accommodations were in touch prior and during our stay to ensure we had everything we needed, great communication.
No complaints, we really enjoyed our short break.
Single beds are quite narrow but pushed together made a positive difference.
Despite being narrow they were comfortable and pillows were ok too.

Good location
Shower door broken property felt a little tired. Needs refurbishing and a good clean.
