    All was as advertised but better.

    Staff are going incredibly accommodating and polite - arrived early and has no issues sorting out. Property was clean and tidy and extremely comfortable.

    Would not have found the car park without intervention from a neighbour. Host might want to make directions clearer. The outside bin mentioned on rules list impossible to locate. Wifi could be added to the rules list. The patio area could do with a jet wash and some plants. This is a just a suggestion.

    The apartment was very nice. No complaints. Fully stocked with cleaning products which allowed us to keep everything clean.

    Lovely, home feeling and great nights sleep

    It would be great if you could put the door number on the inside (you have the main door, and you're met with two doors and I was a little unsure on which door was which as both were not numbered.) The apartment was clean and tidy, but it could do with a deep clean, especially in the bathroom. The shower tray took a long time to clear and I noticed little things like the tile grout, washing machine and corners of the flat that needed a bit of TLC. I would definitely stay again and recommend staying here

    The location was fab, a 15-minute walk from the station. There are loads of lovely coffee shops and cafes very close by. The host responded within seconds, and communication was great. The apartment was lovely, it was super cute and felt like a home. It had everything I needed, the decor was modern and there was a massive outdoor space. - Loved the giant mirror and the breakfast bar. The bed was super comfy, and I had a great night's sleep. Really good value for money.

    Sadly didn’t have proper off road parking facilities, but managed to get near property so wasn’t too bad.

    It was the perfect place to stay for work as only needed to be a few roads up. Was good to relax and not be in one room.

    Perfect little flat for a stay in Leigh-On-Sea

    I grew up in Leigh-On-Sea in the 80s many of the properties there (big old beautiful houses) are converted into flats, which means it's much more populated than ever was, and that was notable more than ever through the amount of cars and limited parking. There is a little bit of private parking (be sure to get clear directions from the owner) but only suitable for a small car really. I guess if you arrive before home time so to speak you will find easy parking on road. Hasn't affected my view of place would stay again as perfect for our visits, but the lovely comfy bed is on quite a large base making little room for side tables/lamps and side of bed. That's just personal preference but could impact someone with challenges in mobility.

    The location was perfect for us, visiting family/friends and close to Leigh-On-Sea main Broadway, which was much better, less need for relying public transport or driving which would have been case if had stayed in main hotels in southend/near airport. Plus, it means money spent goes to independents, which I always prefer over big chains. Simple little ground floor flat with everything you would need for long self-catering stay. Easy check in and out. Close to main motorway links and train stations to London. Great communication from owner.

    If it was a hotel I would have demanded a different room or my money back.

    Ants running around the kitchen area coming from loose plinth at base of cabinets. Filthy bath mat. Long black hair found in the bed. Mould in the corner of the lounge. Clumps of hair on the bedroom carpet (probably left by inefficient vacuum). No indication of how to access Wifi. No clear indication of where to park - 'private road'/alley was narrow and not sure if I was supposed to park in from of some garages or in the recess at rear of property marked 'no parking, not that my car would have fitted the space easily. Ridiculously difficult to get code for key box which negated early check in approval. Dread to think what was under the bed as it certainly couldn't be moved easily in order to vacuum. Sorry for the poor review. Hopefully the host can fix these complaints for future occupants.

    Comfortable seating in the lounge and a good sized television with streaming channels available. Tea, coffee, soap, shampoo all topped up. Good location for a walk to the Old Town, Station, Belton Heights and Leigh Broadway. Comfortable bed. Seating in patio/decking area.

    I didn't end up staying due to the difficult parking situation
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler

    • Stayed 1 night

    I actually didn't end up staying at the apartment due to the parking situation. The parking is down a very narrow 'lane', and I could not fit my car down there or if I did manage to get it to the parking space it would have proven very difficult / impossible to turn around and get out. I am a very competent driver, but the parking was just not accessible for my medium sized car (BMXW X1). I drove around the streets for 20 minutes trying to find a space but there was nothing available anywhere near the apartment so I decided I could not stay. There needs to be clearer instructions on the booking that this space is not accessible for everyone, plus the street parking is EXTREMELY limited. I lost money on this booking, plus had to find somewhere else to stay late on a sunday night - a very inconvenient and disappointing end to my trip.

    The apartment looked very clean and comfortable but I didn't stay so can't comment on anything that I liked
