    The only drawback were the mattresses, which were not supportive and uncomfortable.

    Great location in a quiet area close to the water. Good restaurants and food shops nearby and managed to get free parking throughout. The kitchen had all needed equipment. The apartment had WiFi and TV.

    Some damage in the apartment, dishwasher leaked a little bit on 1 occasion, beds a little uncomfortable with quite squeaky doors to some of the rooms

    Beautiful views quite luxurious, close to the beach, the new arena and Swansea City centre and all amenities

    There wasn't a bin bag? Apart from that everything was great.

    Excellent location both for the beach and the town and even though the weather was awful , it meant that we could nip out in between the rain! Would recommend.

    The bathroom - the bath didn’t empty so we couldn’t have a bath or shower on our last day as would have had to stand in all of our dirty water. I reported it but The host didn’t offer to come and look at it or get it fixed They have said they are getting it fixed now but this didn’t help us during our stay… Beds not comfortable you can feel every spring. Fine for a short break but couldn’t sleep in them for longer than a couple of nights. Could do with an upgrade.

    Location was great and being in the marina, restaurants and a couple of cocktail bars all very close and a co-op shop literally in the building, was a bonus for food and wine etc !

    Cleanliness and overall maintenance. A little YLC is called for. Exposed sub floor around toilet, old plumbing hole exposed in bathroom. Balcony off was bedroom was inaccessible as door would not open over the broken threshold plate. Some painting and heavy cleaning around windowsills is needed. Carpet is showing signs of needing replacement. Hosts a bit unclear with regards to actual address, which got cleared up (It is not a Street number address, but a building name, which was not clearly explained.) No guarantee of a parking spot, which is listed as included in the price. Mention was made of using a pay lot idc the building's lot was full. We did manage to park our vehicle the one night we needed to.

    Location was lovely, Sailboats outside our window in a little harbour, close to downtown. Tea on the balcony outside the living room was great. Very spacious.

    The bed linens could do with updating to a better quality.

    The location was excellent right overlooking the marina. It was a large apartment which was welcoming.

    The flat has an odd ‘dressing room’ attached to large bedroom, where most of the other flats in the block would have an en-suite. The door doesn’t close properly so it rattles all night - I had to close it to prevent the light coming in from the dressing room window. It’s nice, but there’s no plug sockets in it for hairdryer or iron, and no mirrors - either in there or in the bedroom. There’s one small mirror in the smaller bedroom, one in bathroom and one in hallway. None is full-length. Elderly, bobbled, mismatched polycotton bedding was very uncomfortable and hot. There was no mattress protector on the bed in smaller room, or on the single bed. Fridge integral door not attached to cupboard door - this would be a very easy repair and be much less annoying. Elderly cooker - the clock seems to be impossible to set so it flashes constantly. Only one cooker hood light works. Cutlery all mismatched and very worn, feels like discarded stuff from the landlords home. No sieve/drainer for pasta/veg. No cloth or kitchen roll for wiping spills or cleaning surfaces. No tumblers or regular glasses for juice etc - only wine glasses. No walk-in shower (as claimed in listing), or non-slip mat or grab rail - the bathroom is not very disabled/elderly friendly. The bath plug leaks so I used a lot of water having to refill it every 15 minutes. There is no bidet (as listed). Floor behind toilet is broken/unfinished. Bathroom smells of stale cigarette smoke despite the air freshener. Perhaps an extractor fan would help? Broken door ledge to patio door/window in large bedroom. When the door is open on hot nights, the street lights make the room very bright - it would be helpful to have a blackout curtain across the to of the door rather than just a roller blind. .

    Good instructions about key collection and parking. Free car park across the road. Upstairs from excellent Coop and 3 mins from big Tesco/Sainsbury’s/Aldi. Beach across the road and view of marina from one bedroom and the lounge. Superb Spanish restaurant downstairs too. Decent sized mugs and wine glasses. Five good saucepans and a nice non stick frying pan. Plenty of dinner plates and bowls. Spacious and clean fridge freezer. Plentiful towels. Lots of supplies - washing up liquid, bin bags, toilet rolls, toiletries, etc..

    Kitchen was not in great state, skirting board had come off, integrated fridge door broken, carpets throughout were stained, near empty handwash in the bathroom! Description said main bedroom had 2 double beds but it was a 1 x double and 1x large single bed which couldn’t accommodate both my kids, so one had to sleep on the floor in the lounge.

    Great location on the water front and access to the beach. Easy to check-in and check-out, good communication from host.
