Guests say
The Buttermere Apartment in Keswick is praised for its excellent location and the convenience of parking. It is considered ideal for couples and benefits from amenities like a washing machine and a large TV with Netflix. However, it is noted that the property could benefit from modernisation and a deep clean, particularly in the bathroom.
The apartment has received mixed feedback on cleanliness. Some guests have noted a need for a deeper clean, especially in the bathroom, and mentioned issues like a dirty extractor fan and cobwebs.
The location is highly regarded, being just a short walk from the centre of Keswick, which is a significant plus for guests.
Comfort has been a concern for some guests, with reports of an uncomfortable mattress and sofa, and a lack of practical furniture like wardrobes and chest of drawers.
Facilities are deemed adequate with the inclusion of a washing machine and parking space. However, guests suggest that the kitchenware and general decor are outdated and in need of an upgrade.
There is no mention of gifts or additional thoughtful touches provided by the hosts, so it is not possible to assess this category.

Although I said I would recommend, yes locations great and not too expensive for near centre of Keswick BUT apartment is tired in several aspects. Examples are poor cooking implements, bathroom really needs updating (hence poor mark for cleanliness as it just looks like it’s not too clean) and the mattress is not very comfortable as it has dips where people sleep.

I’d describe the apartment as adequate. Plus points were the washing machine (a good one at that); parking space and the shower worked surprisingly well despite its age. Not so great points - everything else. Lack of practical furniture e.g. wardrobe/ chest of drawers; uncomfortable sofa and bed ( bed worse - spent the first night on the sofa); generally it felt shabby and not in line with the price point.The money spent on the TV that was too big for the space would have been better spent elsewhere. Recommend a deep clean and replacing fixtures and fittings that aren’t up to standard.
