Justine and Sam are incredible hosts! The place is great and was more than enough space for 8 of us and they were quick at responding to all queries. They’re both so friendly and I’d a hundred percent recommend staying at Upperton House. It’s also situated in a great location (not too far from a retail park known as Fosse park) with free parking nearby if travelling in big numbers. Thank you both for a great stay!

We had a great stay! The house was spacious and very comfortable, with plenty of room for everyone to relax. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the cutlery and essentials we needed, which made cooking so convenient. Justine was incredibly responsive and helpful—when we had a small issue, she resolved it quickly and even checked back to make sure everything was fine. The place was also spotlessly clean and tidy. Highly recommend staying here!

Here’s a possible Airbnb review:

Justine and her team were fantastic from the outset and throughout our stay. They were incredibly attentive, responsive, and went above and beyond to accommodate any requests we had. Communication was excellent, and they made sure we felt welcome and comfortable throughout. I would highly recommend staying at Justine’s property if you’re ever in Leicester and have the opportunity. It was a great experience overall!

2.0/5
The team were super responsive, great instructions etc. Wi-Fi did not work when we arrived so someone came round and it was fixed within half an hour. Plenty of space, lots of amenities as it has clearly been student accommodation - 2 bathrooms, 2 fridges, washer and dryer etc. Interesting location in an ethnically diverse area.

However, the crockery was poorly cleaned (no sponge or cloth supplied so that could account for it), and the place had an underlying smell that still managed to cut through the powerful air fresheners. The duvets in particular were smelly and the place was dusty - only time in the 3 weeks I have been in the UK that my asthma played up. The washing machine made very alarming sounds and I'm surprised it survived an entire wash cycle. Both toilet seats were poorly fixed and moved around, the downstairs shower head needed to be held in place to use it, and the door on the upstairs shower was broken.
3.0/5
The rooms are a good size, although i was expecting 5 doubles! One was a single.
It was clean and tidy.


Parking is a bit of a problem.

We has a great stay at Justine's house. We enjoyed sitting in the garden. The bedrooms were really comfortable, with Tvs in the bedrooms. The living room was very comfortable and the location was excellent. We walked to a great restaurant in Narborough Road. We walked from the train station.
Overall a great stay in a really comfortable Victorian house.

5.0/5
We booked this place for our friends who were attending our wedding. It had all the amenities they needed.
Most importantly our friends were arriving at 12-1pm which was earlier than the chcek in time however I was able to speak to Justine and they were very flexible and helpful allowing us to have a early check thus enabling me to look after my guests so well. My guests were able to check in early and get good rest.
kitchen had all the utensils and bowls we needed and they also provided lots of board games which my friends enjoyed. The location was not too far from the location of the wedding and so commuting was quite easy for everyone.

Once again since we had a lot of guests, we need some more time for checkout and we were allowed to check out 45 mins later.

The hosts were very responsive and accommodating.
