There was nothing to like, I wasn't given the password, I arrived and stayed outside for more than half an hour, he asked me for my Edi as soon as I gave him my Ed, he saw that I was Brazilian, he already said that I I couldn't receive men and he didn't even know if I was going to receive people, what was I doing in the city? He didn't give me the password. I climbed more than six stairs with my suitcases when I got there, my knee was injured. I asked him to cancel it. He didn't cancel and never gave me the password, so like losing, I lost my money,

    Chelmsford has good shops and restaurants.

    Chelmsford has good shops and restaurants. When we travel down by train we have easy access around places using the bus service. Train and bus stations or taxis are easy to get to. One of our favorite places to eat was the indian restaurant in Moulsham street.

    Chelmsford is a lovely, friendly city with a great atmosphere. Shopping is a dream here and the old buildings in it give it character and charm. It is also clean and tidy. Can't wait to go back. Public transport is very good.

    Great fun for the hen do! The best taxi firm in Essex we found, after a lot of hassle from others, was ‘Your Cabbie’. Graham was our driver and was our knight in shining taxi! 01245 354040, highly recommend!

    Having lived in Chelmsford since 1960 i have seen lots of changes, i have now moved away but still go back to visit family, it is a lovely town with lots of nice shops and plenty of places to eat. There is a Cathedral in the centre of town which is worth going to see.Not much more to say except that it is a good place to visit if you are in nearby Colchester and the coastal towns of Clacton Walton and Frinton.

    This property is beautifully located by the River Chelmer in an upmarket development a few minutes walk just outside of Chelmsford city centre. The apartment is in a brand new development with modern furnishings, comfortable beds and sofa. Everything was exquisitely clean with adequate toilet roll etc. The host was very helpful and approachable and a pleasure to deal with. All pictures matched the apartment and was not dated or innacurate. Highly recommended!

    Location was excellent. Easy to find and in a side road with very little traffic. Off road parking made our arrival easier and it was a great place to stop if you want to explore Chelmsford and the surrounding area. Plenty of grocery stores within a 5 minute walk that open early every day including Sunday - and even a Sunday market in the Town Centre. Property was comfortable and clean, well furnished and with towels and bed linen included.

    The property was in an ideal location right in the centre of Chelmsford and an ideal distance for our party which was in Writtle nearby. The breakfast was lovely with a good selection of pastries, juices and hot food. We liked that the room came with a fan, iron and hairdryer. A big thanks to Yulia who responded to all my messages prior to our stay, and all the staff on arrival were helpful.

    The New London Life is definitely the place to stay in Chelmsford. Very centrally located, next to a beautiful park, opposite Waterstones, M&S, and many other shops. I totally enjoyed my stay, and really hope to return before too soon. Thank you for making my stay so great!
