Great apartment but noisy!
Stayed 4 nights in number 1 apartment Thistle Street. The apartment is in a great location for the new town and hopping on the tram or a bus. It had everything you needed for a great stay, kitchen kitted out, sofa, table, chairs, heating. Bed was comfortable and apartment spacious. If you want a view though and from the pictures on the website you think you'll be getting a lovely view and the apartment will be bright. Not in apartment 1, ground floor which is good as no lift but living room view was just other offices and bedroom view with the balcony was the carpark. Not very private either as people can just look straight into the living area and bedroom walking passed. It is really noisy on the ground floor too, you're right next to the entrance so hear everyone coming and going, bins being emptied at stupid o'clock on the street and in the entrance hall of the building. Then you have the car park and road noise. Communication and instructions were great, we left our luggage at the office on the day of departure so that was a bonus. We would stay again but request an apartment higher up
