If you encounter any issues with the internet, we would kindly ask that you contact the team in the office so they can investigate further.

The central heating is controlled via the boiler located in the hallway cupboard. Please ensure the boiler is switched on at the mains and turn on the first dial, ensuring it has been set to the radiator & tap function. Please watch this video for guidance. Please bear in mind it may take a little time for the apartment to warm up.
If you find the heating hasn’t fired up, ensure the boiler is switched on and not showing any errors. If none of the above is working, simply contact the team in the office and one of our Maintenance team can promptly attend.

Too toasty?! On the rare occasion that the city does see a spectacular summer’s day, we do also have a small number of fans available. Contact the office to request one but, please note, this is subject to availability.

All properties have a hairdryer to hand and we provide one set of towels per guest to save you some room in your suitcase!
As we’re self-serviced accommodation and not a hotel, daily housekeeping is not provided. However, if you are staying with us for more than seven days, someone will attend to turnover the house and restock your linen. This is will be pre-arranged with the team in the office.
A small number of toilet rolls and miniature toiletries are left to get you started on your first night. Russell’s located on Botanic Avenue would be your closest location to stock up on supplies.

You’ll find the remote for the smart TV in the lounge. It is equipped with a number of streaming apps such as Netflix and BBC iPlayer. Use your own account details to sign into these and we would just gently remind you to sign out before departing!
*If you forget, don’t worry - just contact the team in the office and we’ll have a member of staff head down and log you out.

You will find the washer dryer in the kitchen, and the iron and ironing board in the hallway cupboard. A small number of laundry capsules can be found below the kitchen sink.

Both bedrooms have spacious wardrobes where you can store away your luggage and you’ll find hanging space for those items you want to keep neat and tidy.
neat and tidy
The spacious, private kitchen is always a hit with our guests. Here you’ll have everything you need to whip up a tasty, home-cooked meal or a warm breakfast on a cold winter’s day.
As we’re self-serviced accommodation, we provide utensils, cookware and crockery, but the cupboards and the fridge are left bare for you to stock with what you need. Pull up a stool, take a seat at the breakfast bar and relax over your morning coffee before setting off for a full day of sights or shopping.
Ensure the cooker is switched on at the wall - the red fuse light will illuminate. Adjust knobs for temperature and function to use the oven accordingly. On the hob, press and turn the knob to ignite your desired ring.
Before you leave the house on the morning of your departure, we simply ask that you pop your crockery in the dishwasher and clean any pots and pans you might have used.

Although it can sometimes feel like it, we aren’t a hotel so some of our processes will be different. As daily Housekeeping isn’t a feature of self-serviced accommodation, it may be the case that you start to accumulate more rubbish than fits in your personal, indoor bins.
If that’s the case we would kindly ask that you remove this to the building’s communal bins to prevent any spillages or odours in-house. You’ll find these in the underground car park. Please watch this video for location.
Replacement bin-bags will be under the sink in the kitchen and we thank you for your kind co-operation.
