Getting into the property was a bit of a struggle as it was tucked in the back of the complex, and there was little light after dark to find the right place. A bit far from Bristol (25 min drive), but was good otherwise.

Reasonable priced accommodation
Communication good, instructions pretty good, although I had to walk around estate to find block,keys missing when opened safe rang help number really helpful told me where to find emergency key, original keys eventually found they been picked up by another guest.Flat clean and tidy, some wear and tear but nothing to complain about. Hot water didn't seem to work,so used boost to give me enough for a shower but overall a really nice flat.

The kitchen was clean and had everything we needed to store food items, prepare our own meals and keep up to date with washing clothes. The bed was comfortable and the bedroom was a good size. We could hang clothes up and put others in the chest of drawers. We find the provision of an iron and ironing board very useful. The living room was a good size where we could relax and have meals. The bathroom was clean and we enjoyed the heater on cooler days taking the chill off when we were having a shower. We always found a parking space, often very close to our flat and never very far away.

Wouldn't recommend it.
Location was beside a busy roundabout so it was rather noisy. Entrance nearest to car park to accomodation was scruffy. Hallway stank of weed. Signs of damp in bathroom & lots of Silverfish there too. On the plus side, most of the accomodation was very clean, beds were comfy and they provided us with a camp bed at short notice.

Great, comfortable space
Really lovely apartment, well laid out and with everything we needed for a comfortable, easy stay. Comfy beds and bed linen and towels all provided. Lovely to have some tea/coffees there with some biscuits on arrival so we could have a drink straight away before going across the road to ALDI Tesco only down the road too, and the Ember Inns pub was well worth a visit for food too Off street parking felt safe and secure so wasn't worried about my car at all. We did have 1 dining chair that was loose on the back so we didn't use it, and kitchen cupboard door under sink loose, but didn't bother us. Just minor points for repair Well stocked kitchen for crockery and utensils. Wi-fi spot on. Never turned the TV on as we didn't need it Super easy to check in and out Bins - it says recycle where you can, but we couldn't find recycling bins in the bin store?

To be fair, we never actually stayed at the property. On the arrival day I asked about access only to find the apartment was on the 2nd floor with only stair access. My wife could not manage stairs, so we had to find somewhere else to stay. Asking about a refund I was told to contact Expedia which I have not had time to do, as all this was caused by an injury that meant my wife was unable to walk or climb stairs.
Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2019
Response from Samuel on 17 July 2019
Thank you for your review Anon. Please always check directly with the accommodation if you have accessibility needs before booking as we could have advised at the time that the apartments had steps. I note you've not mentioned that we did offer an alternative location which was not on the 2nd floor which you also declined. As you booked and paid Expedia directly - (on a non-refundable rate) you needed to contact them to discuss any refunds - you note you have still yet to do this. We hope your wife makes a full recovery.

Good location for my purposes and instructions for entry were fine. There was a problem with the washing machine but I was notified of this in good time (by email and in writing) and service engineers were sent out as promised. We felt the kitchen was not at the high standard of the rest of the apartment - eg the beds extremely comfortable: the hob was not fit for purpose and the work surfaces were in poor condition. Overall would certainly re-book though.

Short stay
Clean and well equipped apartment. Although not in the town centre was good location for our purpose of accommodation hunting for our son. Plenty of room to relax in the evening. Only minor negative was it was very warm and with windows open a little noisy as it is at a busy roundabout. Would stay there again.

Lovely apartment in a quiet area
Apartment was clean and comfortable. Instructions on how to collect keys were clear and it was a very quiet area. Parking is a little tight and weirdly, the wifi kept dropping but that's the only thing to be aware of. A range of shops were nearby and it was easy to get to the main roads.

Spacious and quiet
The place was very easy to find and the area was generally very quiet. We heard road noise a little bit, but nothing from the other apartments. It was good to have a bit of space, and having a kitchen meant we could save a bit of money and eat in.

Home away from home
My husband and I and our little one year old wanted to do a long weekend break. I was conscious of travelling with my daughter as I have never 'gone away' with my little one when she was younger. We were visiting Bath, Bristol and Cardiff and this apartment was reasonably placed (and priced). Pros -The location was in a quiet residential area -There's a large tesco extra less than a mile away - The apartment was clean to a good standard - They had the essentials in the apartment like iron, pots and pans, liquid, working tv! And a dvd player with a few dvds (we left two for future guests) - quite spacious (2 bedroom ground floor Cons -My confirmation email stated that check-in is 3pm. We arrived at the apartments at 4.10pm and our key was not available. When I rang them the lady I spoke to seemed to suggest that they were in there. (Why would I lie?) She said she would follow up with her colleague.I then went on to state that it's gone 4pm so there really isn't any excuse as to why the key shouldn't have been there. crying baby in the car, tired and hungry isnt a good combo.. 10 min later a lady pops out of the apartment and has left my key in the safe box. Now nt too much concern but on the day we we checking out. We had a very stern looking cleaning lady saying that it's gone 10am (check out time) and we were hurried out of the door.. (meaning in the rush i left my phone inside the apt!) So we had to go back and get it! Not a pleasant end to an otherwise 'nice' stay
Response from Samuel on 23 Mar 2016
Thanks for the review Forida, apologies that the key was not in the safe when you arrived, on our busiest days sometimes we can be slightly late to Orchard Gate and we always try and ask for an arrival time to avoid this. In regards to check out, again apologies that you were rushed out. Thanks for the Dvds!

good experience, try it!!
This is the first time I have stayed in a apartment whilst away on business and I found it a great experience. Okay you don't get breakfast served to you but I can live with that. I would definitely look for apartments when away on business trips in future.
Response from Samuel on 14 Jan 2016
Thanks for the review. I'm afraid we can't book breakfast for you but we can offer a 'breakfast pack' for an additional charge which might go some of the way! Hope to see you again in future.

This hotel is fine to me for long stay especially. One thing to be concerned is that it is a bit difficult to find the entrance. Because there is no sign for address no. Except for the above, all are fine.

We were very impressed with alderman apartments at orchard gate . The apartments were very comfortable clean and modern . Ideally located near the motorway without being noisy . Easy parking and shops and takeaway within walking distant, everything you could want. I would happily stay there again . Well done

출장용 호텔!
출장으로 장기간 지내기에는 좋은 호텔입니다. 최소 방 구성이 2개(더블룸, 싱글룸)로 되어 있어 2인 이상 지낼 때 경제적입니다. 싱글룸은 상당히 작으므로 성인 2명이 지낼 때는 더블룸 두개가 있는 객실로 예약하는 것이 좋습니다.
