The Nest

  : Comfy bed, picked for great location, historical building
  : 1) Day before arrival we found out there was a mistake with rooms. If we knew beforehand we would have cancelled as we didnt want room 1. The room we booked was given to another guest.2) Had to ask for the entry codes as we still hadnt received the email as per arrangement the day before.3) Car Parking payment not taken, we had rung with our card details months before and spoke directly to owner. We only found out the carpark space hadn't been reserved the day before arrival. Again another error.4) On arrival at 8pm, we couldnt get into the hall through the street door, we needed another code. Made dozens of calls to owner but it went to voicemail. Over 1hr later at 9pm our call was answered. She said she hadn't answered as she was at work. This code should have been sent with the safe code, but it wasn't. Another error, 1st impressions dropping!5) The room has 2 dining chairs that are unsafe to sit on. Feel like they are about to collapse. The sofa is stained and broken at one end so nowhere to sit.6) The hair/shower gel is empty (not as advertised) & soap already used7) Nowhere to hang dresses (just tops/shirts)8) The coffee is dated 2018.9) dirty marks on wall into bathroom10) Curtain rail fell off wall when we tried to open the curtain to open balcony door. The balcony doors do not lock (or if they do, we dont have the key).11) Gentleman in the room below knocked on our door as water was flooding in through his ceiling. I was in shower and obviously had to come out immediately.12) Once home we saw that the carpark charge had been taken from our credit card. (Furious as this is the c/c number that the Nest said they didn't receive). Very worrying! We asked for a carpark refund, which we received, except even that wasn't correct as we didn't receive the full amount back, short by 3. Lost the will to even start to explain that to the owner!Points (1-11) were emailed to owner after stay.

  : Location, just on the outskirts of the town centre, the size of the accommodation and a member of staff kindly phoned to check that we had the key instructions as we were arriving late, which was very thoughtful. The accommodation was very clean.
  : I do not know if it is customary to have non smoking rooms in this kind of accommodation in France . This one had been smoked in by accident or design and although the room was clean there was a strong residual cigarette smoke smell. For example, the bed pillows has clean covers on but the pillow pad still retained a smell of smoke and as a non smoker that wasn't ideal.

  : Lovely apartment with living area and bedroom. Location was a short walk from Amiens centre and there were supermarkets nearby for self catering if you wish. Access was easy via door code and lock box. Didn't have contact with owners while we were there - did not need to.

  : The location was convenient and the apartment was nice.
  : We were in the Loft and the last flight of stairs were narrow and not easy to bring up luggage.

  : The location.
  : The property was clean and comfortable and has the potential to easily be rated higher than we did .but it fell short in the following areas- There was a bare minimum of items provided - eg basic kitchen and cooking utensils, dishwashing items, no broom or dustpan, bathroom items.We also felt the instructions for accessing the off site parking area could be easily improved.
