Darjeeling @ The Tea Warehouse

Great place, beautifully decorated, quite luxurious in fact in great location - totally central. It just lacked a few things: - Instructions for heating & microwave so you're not left guessing. On the heating, I think the aparment hadn't been stayed in for a while when we were there, was cold on arrival and took AGES to heat up. We got a supplementary heater the next day which really helped, and between that and the heating we were fine, but the livingroom/hall seemed underserved by only one radiator. This probably needs looked at. - Utensils - no chopping board, and the 4 each of cups/bowls etc could do to be more if there were 4 people staying.

Alnwick sat Positive: Comfortable appt recently decorated and V clean. Well appointed kitchen and cosy beds. Negative: Road noise is loud from second floor. Passing cars make the road sound like a motorway, and people talking in the street could be in the next room. Parking is on a 2hr meter. - perhaps I missed this in the initial description, or didn't expect it.

Good value apartment for family trip to Alnwick Positive: Location ideal for exploring Alnwick on foot. Plenty of places to eat out within walking distance. We had car and though you can only park for 2 hours outside the apartment (disc system and discs provided helpfully) we parked a few minutes walk away for free no bother. Apartment was well equipped. Plenty of fluffy white towels and beds were comfy with nice linen. Kitchen well equipped too. Good value for money for size and facilities offered. Negative: Sofa was uncomfortable and there was no table to eat at. There was a smell in the apartment too that lingered for our whole stay. Very noisy at night - people leaving pubs at closing time, deliveries/bin lorries early in the morning.

Comfortable and great position to explore the area. Positive: Well appointed,great location. Clean and quality bedding and towels

Super apartment Positive: Centre of town. Great beds good kitchen and modern bathroom Negative: Nothing but would have preferred a small dining table instead of breakfast bar
