Gloucester Apartment is a second-floor flat in the heart of Bristol's Stokes Croft neighbourhood, looking out towards King Square. The building sits within walking distance of the Harbourside, Castle Green and the city centre's bars and restaurants. A pub is a five-minute walk away.
Inside, you get a living room with a sofa bed and a separate double bedroom, plus a full bathroom with bath and shower. The kitchen is equipped for proper cooking—oven, hob, microwave and fridge mean you can eat in or eat out as you choose. Throughout the flat, wifi is live, and bed linen and towels come as standard. The essentials like electricity are covered. Note that this is a no-smoking property.
The layout works for couples, small families or friends travelling together, with room to spread out across the open-plan living areas. You're in one of Bristol's busiest quarters, so expect energy and activity outside rather than rural quiet.

What guests say
Absolutely no issues with the flat itself or the management team. The transport links into the city centre and around Bristol are excellent. However, there is significant noise on weekends, often lasting 10+ hours, from nearby venues such as Lakota or Blue Moon. The bass can be loud enough to be felt inside the flat. There is also a noticeable drug-related presence in the area, which may make it feel less suitable for lone female residents. In addition, there have been some issues with missing parcels, although these are currently being addressed.

Good location to get into town, but the noise coming from clubs and various places: Lakota and the Blue moon is horrific. Every weekend all weekend, all through the day and night. The lift is constantly broken which means using the stairs. Have come across multiple drug users using the corridors as places to sleep/get their fix. As a lone female I do not feel safe entering or exiting the building for fear of what I have and possibly could come across. Not safe.

Location is good for public transport and the city. But the place is poorly managed by "Hillcrest estate management" who insist on not caring about the place 8.30am fire alarms every week, a caretaker that doesn't take care his idea of cleaning is spray bottle even for the urine on Charles Street entrance, oh yes every weekend expect the use of the entrances of the building to be used as a toilet. The management company took away the old intercom system and wasted lots of money when there was nothing wrong before complete waste of money. Pigeons everywhere the seagulls are something else nesting up on the roofs constant noise no effort to use pest control and bird mess is a constant burden. Mail is not secure here expect anxious time when you have mail delivered as the people on the ground floor DSS housing steal the mail. The area is very challenging with the local drug users and aggressive homeless people on the street they try to access the property regularly to seek shelter. At the end of the day this is city living here but the management company are ultimately to blame.
