ABOUT THIS SPACE
The 'Paisley Pineapple Flat' is a ground floor flat, located just two hundred metres away from the main campus of the University of the West of Scotland.
Paisley town centre is a few minutes walk away meaning public transportation is readily available.
The flat has residential parking.
This two-bedroom flat boasts a private veranda and underwent complete refurbishment in 2019, creating a contemporary and stylish living space within a 1960s building.
We do not charge cleaning fees, just leave the place clean and tidy upon check out.
We have three other flats nearby; 'Cosy Cactus Flat,' 'Paisley Panda Flat,' and 'Paisley Pattern Flat.'

LIVING ROOM
The lounge area in the living room has a three seater sofa and two armchairs - there is also a storage pouffe with a blanket inside.
The lounge has a 50", UHD, Samsung smart television with apps such as Netflix, YouTube and Amazon Prime - so you can log into your accounts and continue watching your favourite shows.
Our high speed broadband provides internet access saving you from using all your phone data whilst in the flat.
We also provide a DVD player with a host of films for you to chose from and if you like reading then there is also a selection of reading material on our bookshelves.
A 'Sonos' One speaker allows you to listen to your favourite music or radio stations with quality sound assured! - we provide a tablet with the Sonos and Spotify apps installed.
The dining area has an extendable table with up to six chairs available.
You can access the balcony via the French doors - it is fenced off and faces South (providing a pleasant space to enjoy the sun when it presents itself).
KITCHEN
The kitchen is gloss white with solid wood worktops.
We provide a toaster, kettle, microwave, fan oven, induction hob, fridge freezer, washer dryer, dehumidifier and iron.
Everyday cooking utensils and crockery are stored in the cupboards - you will find plates, bowls, mugs, glasses, cutlery, chopping boards, pots and pans. We are more than happy for you to use these items, but we kindly request that you clean any dishes and put them away after using them. In addition, any mess created while using the microwave, fridge freezer, oven or hob should also be cleaned.
We provide some condiments and cleaning goods to get you started - such as washing up liquid, cloths, tea towels, kitchen roll, bin liners, tea bags and sachets of salt, pepper, coffee, and sugar.
We hope you won't need them but we have a fire extinguisher, fire blanket and mini first aid kit in the kitchen.
The Dyson vacuum is on the wall in the kitchen and there is also a Karcher hoover mop.
If you are unfamiliar with the washer dryer there is a clothes horse stored under the triple bunk bed.
Please use the dehumidifier if you are cooking or drying clothes.

BEDDING & TOWELS
Bedding and towels will be provided according to the number of people who have booked the flat.
For each person staying at the flat, one bath towel and one hand towel will be provided for stays up to two nights.
For stays of three nights or more, two of each towel will be provided per person.
If you are part of a larger group, or have any specific sleeping arrangements, please inform us in your message so that we can accommodate your needs.
BINS
Refuse should be bagged and tied before disposing of it appropriately, as outlined in our welcome booklet. This allows for a smooth waste management system and ensures a clean and tidy environment for all concerned.
SERVICING
We have dehumidifiers in the kitchen and both bedrooms - it is important that you use these devices when cooking, ironing or drying clothes to prevent the accumulation of moisture.
The outer windows of the flat are professionally cleaned by a contractor every two weeks, typically on a Monday or Tuesday. To maintain your privacy during these cleaning days, you may want to consider keeping the blinds closed.
For longer stays we conduct inspections of the flat approximately every fourteen days, or whenever necessary.
During these visits we aim to address any minor maintenance issues that arise. Rest assured we will provide you with prior notice of these visits and make every effort to accommodate your schedule.
HEATING & ELECTRICITY
Power is included in the cost of your stay.
To offer competitive nightly rates we have priced our accommodations based on fair power usage.
During the colder months we ensure the living room is heated to a comfortable 21 degrees Celsius, while other rooms are set a couple of degrees lower. Overnight, when guests are typically asleep, we lower the thermostat until approximately 6am.
SECURITY
The flat is alarmed via 'Ring' - we set the code to be the last four digits of your phone number.
External cameras monitors the main door and balcony - these are normally only accessed if a concern is raised.
The residents who stay in the building will appreciate friendly visitors to the flat who show mutual respect. It is deemed deeply inappropriate to disturb the residents of the building who are going about their normal, everyday lives i.e. work etc. Guests will have their stay ended early if any disturbances are reported.
IDENTIFICATION
You will be asked to send a copy of photographic identification for each guest staying at our place via our messaging platform.
You should only ever have the number of guests you have booked for in the apartment, and these guests will have provided us with their identifications before arriving.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
If you book this flat you will be held responsible for both your own actions and the actions of your companions.
In the event that any damage occurs or if our space is neglected, you will cover the costs of repairing or replacing the affected items.
R.E.S.P.E.C.T
We kindly request that you leave the flat in the same neat, clean, and tidy condition as it was when you arrived - this allows our prices to be competitive.
We expect you to leave the flat, more or less, as you found it - at the end of your stay our cleaner carries out a basic service that includes washing used towels and bed linen, with some hygiene cleaning in the toilet and kitchen (we have budgeted for this in your costings).
The cleaner does NOT pick up your rubbish, dispose of your belongings or remove stains from furnishings - we do not plan or budget for this type of cleaning and the £250 bill we receive for a domestic cleaner will be charged to you.
We do NOT wash or put away any of your used crockery, pots, pans or utensils. We also do not expect to clean the oven, hob, microwave or fridge freezer after your stay - we do not plan or budget for this type of cleaning and the £250 bill we receive for a kitchen porter will be charged to you.
NO PETS
We are NOT pet friendly.
Accommodating pets requires a more extensive and unattainable cleaning schedule, which would compromise our availability and quality of service.
You will be charged all losses incurred as a result of you bringing an animal to the flat.
NO PARTIES
Our license does not permit gatherings or parties.
NO SMOKING
Our license, and local law, forbids smoking and vaping in or around the property. Smoking within the premises will result in a fine of £2500, which may be increased depending on any associated damages.
We expect and appreciate respectful guests, however not all individuals are aware of common courtesy towards our belongings hence the need to emphasise these rules.
Thank you for your cooperation in respecting our guidelines.
