Clean apartment . Didn't communicate with staff . Sunny and spacious but must add lighting ( I had to buy a lamp to add some light at night ) . The dishwasher is not functional - it stained all the glasses and plates. The bed comfortable .

I liked the layout of the apartment, although one bedroom was a bit small with nowhere to hang or store clothes. It is great for a short or long term stay. Conveniently located for driving, using the bus or train for transport

Big, quiet rooms with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Only very slight negative is some of the walls show small evidence of past water leaks.

Excellent place and lovely people

This was my 2nd stay at SACO in Reading and it won't be my last one. The place is in a lovely quiet area with free parking. Ricky, who was there to greet us was extremely helpful and even upgraded us to a better apartment! I would highly recommend
