Zentrale Lage der Wohnung, Nähe zum Supermarkt, ruhige Lage im 2. Stock, Aussicht von der Terasse auf die Parkanlage & Bäume & leider sehr nahes Nachbarhaus, Geräusche der Vögel und nicht des Straßenverkehrs zu hören, TV mit deutschsprachigen Filmen, angenehme Größe der Wohnung, Wohnung mit kleinen Lebensmittelvorrat (Salz, Öl, Tee) und somit ein erstes Eingewöhnen gut möglich, Seife, Duschgel und WC-Papier vorhanden, Wäscheständer

WLAN-Passwort ist falsch auf der Information abgeschrieben, Schlüsselbox war nicht leicht zu finden, Schlüssel war leider auch nicht in der Schlüsselbox und wir mussten die angegebene Kontaktnummer anrufen (welche sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend war!), der zentrale Müllplatz war ein Sauhaufen und der Müll lag daher wirklich überall herum, Dunstabzug für Ofen hat nicht funktioniert

The location was very central.
The bed and sheets were clean and smelled clean.
(But spent nearly an hour swatting flies so we could sleep)
Fridge was clean
House looked tidy ( but was very unclean)

The mold and dirty smell that hit you as soon as you entered the building! ( to the point I was dry heaving)
No lighting in pitch black corridors.
The water damaged ceiling and carpet right outside the apartment to the left.
The flies!! tons of flies that landed on us and stayed on us as soon as we walked thru the door.... as we tried to eat our sandwiches the flies were landing on us and our food and crawling on us.
The carpets we vacuumed but filthy.
The sofa bed was dirty and smelled bad.
The oven wouldn't work.(but maybe that was us who couldn't figure it out) and it's contents were not clean.
The side panel on the bath tub had come away from the side, revealing alot of black mold. The smell was intense.
There was black mold on the walls, drapes and window frames in the living room, and within 10 minutes of us being there our eyes were watering, noses running and throats sore. By morning my eyes were so swollen and I could hardly swallow... we had no choice but to leave. We have never left a hotel or air bnb before...but this one was really bad.

The hardware is almost impeccable, the location is moderate, close to the train station, there is a supermarket opposite the residence, and the room is clean and well-organized. It's a pity that the software failed to catch up. There was no hot water supply from the morning of the third day of stay. I immediately contacted the host and he said that the hot water would need to be warmed up for a while before it could be provided. When I wanted to take a shower at night, I found that there was still no hot water. I contacted the host at this time, but there was no reply. I had no choice but to contact the bnb staff. Thanks to the intervention of bnb, the host responded later and said that an engineer would come to repair it tomorrow. But when I came back that night, I found that there was still no hot water. So I had to find the bnb staff again. He suggested that I check out immediately and make some compensation to me.

Everything you could possibly need during your stay was provided. Despite comments that others have made, the balcony was spotlessly clean.......although the wrong time of year to use it! Its basic accommodation, but as long as your expectations are realistic, then it wont disappoint.

The bathroom certainly needs a bit of TLC, and there is a hole in the kitchen flooring. The other flats are all very close, and overlook the balcony, and window, so it doesn't feel very private.....unless you leave the curtains drawn all day.

The location was very doable for getting into town and the location was next door to a grocery store.

This property needs a complete overhaul. The carpet was so dirty that I was afraid to walk on it barefoot. The furniture needs to cleaned as well. There is a plumbing issue in the flat. When flushing the toilet, sometimes the tank wouldn't fill because of this. There is a major water hammer that sounds like the Titanic coming in. The drain in the tub was not acceptable. When taking a shower the water would collect to about 5 inches deep. The cooker was so old and had cleaned so much that all the lettering for the elements were nonexistent. The kitchen lineoleum was buckled in one place and finally cracked and we had to leave the pieces there. The drapes must have been really old and I applaud them for the replacements but they shouldn't have purchased ones that were 12 inches too long.

Location isn't horrible but the flat itself lacked any amount of homeliness. There was minimal supplies. Had to clean the entire place before check in and we ended up having to put up with fleas and check out early. Hosts are slow to respond and don't seem to inspect their properties often so things get left unmanaged. Didn't offer new bedding solutions, didn't respond to most questions asked after check in and took 2 days for a response. Tv remote was dead. Lack of blankets, students live in the surrounding apartments so expect late night noise and partying, ect. Only thing this place had to offer was the size and convince in location to the city.

The bathroom was disgusting, feces on tiles which were also cracked. It was definitely a health & safety issue!! Contacted " Blue Fox" sending pics, they were not helpful at all, actually very rude. Will never book through BLUE FOX/booking.com again.

Basic, but comfortable. Fully equipped with everything you would need.

Overlooked by balcony's opposite and adjacent. Had to keep the curtains closed to provide any privacy.
Although not directly the responsibility of the owners of the flat, the communal bin storage area was overflowing, and rat infested. Avoid it if you can!

Excellent value for money. You get a spacious flat in a great area. Easy short walk to park, city centre, train station and bus stops. Plus a big supermarket across the road.
The flat itself is set out nicely. Large TV, clean and tidy lounge, modern kitchen with the essential/basic kitchen utensils etc available for use. The rooms were all very clean. The bathroom was also decent (the stain mentioned in previous reviews is gone..has been redone). And I must say, the hosts are excellent. Very communicative and helpful from start to finish. Overall would highly recommend!!

The outdoor balcony area had to be cleaned before use - we found it a bit grubby on arrival - but once wiped up was a nice place to use in summer.

Spacious, comfortable apartment with great access for using a wheelchair / pushchair, free parking on site, supermarket (Aldi) on your doorstep and city centre only a 5-10 minute walk away. Good communication from the host too.
A few niggles - only one teaspoon, one kitchen towel, nowhere to dry your bathroom towels and a stained/cracked bath and the balcony was dirty. There also wasn't a hairdryer when we arrived but the host dropped one off for us. Hence why not 5 stars from us.
But overall we enjoyed it. Canterbury is a lovely city too.

The cleanliness of this apartment was a huge let down to be honest. Which was a disappointment.
The apartment itself is a really nice and convenient place to stay. Aldi is a stones throw away and the Park and River is on the doorstep. However, the pictures in the advertisement are not that of what the apartment actually looks like now. The ad pictures need updating if you want to really know what condition this flat is in currently. It is in need of a bit of modernisation, a good deep clean and some decorating.
The balcony doors/frames/windows - Absolutely filthy! Finger prints, food smeared on the windows and the wooden frames, hand prints, and on the outside was just dirt and grime from everyday weathered ailments and birds. A lot of spider webs, with quite a few large spiders running around. Not great if you have a fear of spiders/creepy crawlies.
Opening the door onto the balcony was a shock! The balcony rails were very dirty, covered in damp algae type mould and grime. Unsightly cigarette butts in one corner. The balcony floor was covered in bird droppings, green algae moss and had a very pungent smell of urine!
There were 2 resident pigeons living in the top of the balcony railings. I assume the smell was a combination of pigeons, their droppings and a men's urinals.
When having the door open, the smell of urine wafted into the flat. It made having the door/s open very unpleasant. Especially as it was very warm and the flat was uncomfortably warm with the doors closed. There is only one other window in the flat, which is in the bedroom. This makes the balcony, the main source of ventilation/fresh air.
The living area is a big and open space with a very big and comfortable sofa bed, which opens up into a king size bed. The sofa had a couple of white stains on the seating area which the cleaner did remove when she come back to carry out the corrections. The cushions were rather worn and did smell of other people. The white and grey fluffy throw on the sofa smelt very loved.
The dining table was clean and perfect for a family to sit and eat together.
Carpet and rugs were clean and fluffy.
In the kitchen everything looked clean on the surface but when looking through the draws and cupboards, I was disappointed to see that the cutlery and the utensils were all really very dirty. The inside of the cupboards were dirty and everything looked like it had been unkempt for quite sometime. There was one cracked glass amongst the cutlery which stood right at the front of the cupboard and clearly showed the crack? Another sign that the contents of the cupboards had not been checked. The other glasses and cups were very dirty. This left me feeling very uncomfortable. And immediately I wanted to clean and wash everything before using for myself and my children. Which in turn, meant on arrival I spent a good chunk of my time cleaning and washing cutlery and utensils before wanting to use them. It was at this point that I contacted the host. I took pictures of everything that was dirty and all signs of marks, just to ensure that I would not be held responsible for any of these signs of damage and also because I felt that arriving at the apartment in this state left me wondering if the host was actually aware of how the cleaning company standards were not up to scratch.
I did also clean the balcony floor myself and clean the balcony doors, frames and windows because
a) my kids were walking on bird droppings and bringing it all in to the flat and
b) because I couldn't see out of the windows, which made me feel very depressed.
The bathroom was an absolute let down I'm afraid. The bath tub was covered in unsightly brown marks, mould and there was a long crack on the side panel, which pinched my knee as I leant in to turn the bath taps on. The marks were explained in the greeting message on the day of arrival. The host explained that they'll be renewing the bath in due course. However, this all being explained once we'd already arrived was not, in my opinion, very helpful because I'd already paid for the stay! And wasn’t aware of the condition of the bathtub. The bathroom smelt strongly of damp and mould and there were holes in the walls where things had either been removed or broken? Unfortunately, this was a huge let down for me as personal hygiene is top of my priority list and having a clean and well-equipped bathroom is hugely important for myself and my children. There was absolutely no where to hang any towels or coats?
When booking this apartment, it was hard to differentiate between the reviews for which review was for which property. Most of the reviews were complementary and satisfactory hence my booking this apartment in Canterbury. When revisiting the site on my return home, I notice that if you click on the property you are Interested in, then you can see all reviews for that property alone.
After sending photos of all these issues to the host. She apologised and promptly got the cleaning company to return and make the corrections. However, the cleaner explained that they don't clean the outside, i.e the balcony area. Also, that they don't clean the windows? Once the cleaner had left, we returned back to the flat and I was a disappointed to see that the windows were still mucky and the frames still had smeared food marks on. The cleaner had removed the suspect white stains on the sofa. However, she had simply put back all the washing up that I had already done myself and didn't actually clean the rest of the cutlery or the cupboards.

Great communication and easy to follow instructions, lots of kitchen utensils and wonderful Tv. However felt a little mislead by the late notice of the red stained bath (even if it is bleach is still very offputting), this in addition to a few stains on the floor and bird poo on the balcony let the place down a little. There were a few things that if added would make a huge difference to comfort like hooks in the bathroom, bins in the bedroom and a regular hairdryer. Overall a decent place to stay that with a few tweaks could be a real star.

Charlie

Great location, only a few minutes walk from the high street. Unfortunately some of the cutlery and cooking equipment was dirty, so I had to clean it before use. A strong smell of stale smoke in the apartment that we noticed as we arrived. The balcony had a lot of bird's mess on the floor and unfortunately when leaving the doors/windows open there was a regular and strong smell of cannabis. The communication with the Blue fox team was faultless and the check in process was very clear and straight forward.

Ideal location to explore this historical and beautiful city. Everything is within walking distance. Local supermarket nearby to stock up on essentials if self catering but also nearby restaurants and pubs for drinking and dining out.
The apartment itself is well equipped for a very comfortable stay and communication with the host is smooth and easy.
Thank you for allowing us to use your home.
