Several guests mention a quiet and relaxing stay despite the period nature of the building and wooden flooring, though a few have experienced occasional noise due to other guests. The property is well suited for visitors seeking a home-away-from-home feel rather than a traditional hotel experience.

My second stay at Spirit of Prince Street. I stayed in #1 apartment on both occasions. A work trip. I really enjoyed having a relaxing and comfortable couple of nights, after two long and busy days of training. A lot of lovely details and care has gone into this apartment. I would happily stay again. There ARE wooden floors, but there were guests in the apartment above when I stayed and they didn’t disturb me - I think the earlier review about noise means they were unlucky to have inconsiderate and selfish fellow guests. What a shame. The apartment was very clean, comfortable and attractive. Close to Quay shopping, shops and pubs/restaurants. I will stay here again when I come back to Hull - thank you!

The location of the apartment was perfect and we parked across the road - no more than a 5 minute walk. £9.50 for 24 hours was slightly more expensive than other car parks but still cheap in our book! There was no one in the reception area but we had everything we needed and we were also able to leave our bags earlier than the check in time to allow us to then spend the afternoon with family. The apartment was on the top floor so might not be great for people with physical issues. It was warm and comforting and definitely a home away from home. We didn't spend long in the apartment but I'd recommend slippers or slides as the floor is worn and old but in keeping with the character of the house. We'd definitely consider staying there again.

Slept like a log with really comfy bed . Would recommend for a city centre break. wooden stairs to 2nd floor no problem for us, but something to consider.

A lovely stay - comfortable, stylish, great location and very helpful hosts. Check in is very convenient and the apartment has everything you could need. Our second stay here and we wouldn't choose anywhere else for a trip to Hull.

This is a very nicely created apartment situated within minutes of Hull Town centre. A lot of thought has been given to the layout and to creating an attractive place to stay. Service was great, too, when I had a minor problem. The small flight of stairs are the only way up and are only for the able-bodied. Well priced, well decorated...well, stay there!

Excellent stay, the apartment was lovely. All very clean and modern, quirky decor, and in a lovely location. So glad I didn't book a hotel - this felt so much more special. I'd recommend a short walk across the footbridge to the harbour where there are some lovely restaurants
