    • Deluxe Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    A small table and chair for eating or reading would go a long away to improve the comfort of guest in the room, rather than having to resort to the bed or the floor. The WiFi signal for the TV is in need of an upgrade.

    Very clean, descent and large room; in a central location in Barnsley. It has been been recently refurbished. The bed and pillow are comfortable. Shared kitchen and toilet are good. Available parking is helpful.

    Despite the above, spent ages trying to access (get message an hour after entering that outside door codes didn't work) and dark once inside, so again difficult trying to work out entry. Didn't realise not ensuite - extremely basic apartment - and cold! No heating that I could see. Price wasn't expensive by any means - but it is Barnsley after all!

    Location great - with parking behind apartments. The Dove pub a few doors away brilliant! Clear and well thought out instructions prior to arrival for location and door codes etc.

    Excellent for the price but could've been better if previous reviews had been acted on.

    Unfortunately, there were only four hangers in the wardrobe so anyone staying for a week wouldn't be able to hang up their clothes, nor would a couple staying in the room. The room didn't contain a table and chairs, though there was plenty of room for one, and only one chair in the kitchen area, so any meals had to be eaten sitting on the bed in the room. The point regarding tables and chairs in the room is one that has been made by others so maybe it's a point that should be taken forward.

    The location was fantastic, as it was pretty close to town, and in a quiet area, as well, at a really excellent price. The room itself was incredibly spacious, so absolutely no issue there. It's just the sort of place for someone to base themselves before getting out and about during the during the day.

    Not enough facilities about 4 cups and plates but if your not planning on using the shared kitchen it doesn’t effect stay.

    Good location from centre about 10/15min walk, easy self check in, free parking down the side street to right of the food place in between houses. Host replies very quick😊

    Access was a bit confusing, two access codes and the room booked was supposed to have a balcony- could not find any balcony/ garden roof

    Location was great, very clean and comfortable and good for one night.

    Only one street away from property Please read above thank the owner contact he couldn't believe the cock up address cock up literally five minutes drive away

    We booked the apartment on route to a funeral it was a cold night both of us were tired. It took us about 3 hours to realise we had been given the wrong address. We had no way off getting in touch with the owner of the house. Eventually the Owner of the booking contacted us and given us the right address. We are not complaining about the owner but we are not happy with booking. Com this isn't good for the either of the property owners it souls never happen been given the wrong address

    Clean and spacious room, very convenient location for football and 15 mins walk from town centre/train station. Handy info from the owner including video for keypad entry.

    Parking wasn't specified how to get to it. We had to park up elsewhere and figure it out ourselves. Extra pillow on each side would have been great as 1 is a little flat for our liking. Also, a blanket would have been nice to have as when the heating went off overnight, it got a little chilly.

    It was close proximity to where we needed to be. The room was clean and tidy, no clutter all bright and open.

    Last time I stayed at this guest house I have struggled to gain entry inside but I couldnt raise this issue because the message sent to me was:dont call us if you are having any issues,so to me this is not right.

    They were no breakfast inside and the location was good and close to my work.

    We had problems with the access codes, but this was dealt with quickly. The lock on the shared bathroom didn't work - that's a big problem with shared facilities The toilet flush was a bit temperamental.

    The room was spacious and clean. Communication in advance was good. When we had a problem, the manager was quick and efficient in solving it.

    Toilet didnt flush, toilet door doesnt lock properly Was not aware this apartment was going to be shared with another stranger. (We had 2 out of 3 rooms) No lamps or mirrors in rooms

    Easy to access, good location, bed was comfy (couple of strange stains on our bed though) Good for a place to sleep for a night for a good price. Would probably recommend

    This really is basic taken to new level – there literally is nothing but a bed a wardrobe and a little nightstand in the room. At least a chair and some sort of table/desk would’ve been very helpful!
