    The carpet throughout the apartment initially did not look dirty. But walking on it throughout the day. Makes under your feet really dirty. I think it needs to be changed. When we first entered the apartment, the smell was not very welcoming.

    The location is in the ideal spot. Every attraction is only a few minutes away.

    WiFi password printed on a sheet in the apartment was incorrect, as well as another one sent via email. Despite asking for a correct password during our stay we didn't receive it, so eventually we spent our time in the apartment without access to its WiFi until leaving.

    the sofa bed was very uncomfortable, their was roadworks right outside so lots of traffic stopping outside at temporary lights though that’s not the property’s fault as such.

    location, how much the property had to offer in terms of appliances etc.

    Very complicated doorlock which we could not understand. Electronic showers are unknown on the continent. Flat on ground floor, unsafe to open windows, so hot and stuffy Owner does not seem to react to messages, only sends standard Booking texts. Disappointing!

    Space. Owner replaced faulty washing machine

    The skirting was grubby and marks on the walls in the bathroom. Lack of hot water from the bathroom and kitchen taps, however we did advise we would be ok. Black out curtains would be good and something to cover the front door to stop light coming in to lounge in morning.

    The location, the space, good cooking facilities, late check-out allowed.

    Not thoroughly cleaned after the previous guest. (The owner apologized, offered to clean, and even brought some free beer)

    Nice apartment: good equipment, everything you need. (Washer, kitchen, etc.) Recently renovated. Friendly contact

    Space and the facilities were great. The host made sure i was well informed prior to stay and she also checked up that everything was fine.

    Just a bit noisy! as we are from the countryside, so not use to road traffic.

    Close to town centre, shops, restaurants, pubs and easy to get to. not far from the harbour or lighthouse.

    Beds really comfy - one 3/4 and one single, we were three people so also used the sofa bed ... not the most comfy. Area around is not the most salubrious.

    Good facilities, tea coffee etc. Aldi nearby. Clean and tidy. 10 / 15 mins walk to the centre. Safe cheap local parking in Western Approach car park.

    Perhaps some black out blinds would be nice as could be very bright in mornings, apart from that nice stay.

    Great location very close to centre and the hoe. The apartment was very clean and lock box available which allowed for late check in.

    The apartment smells terrible like mould and damp. We still smell it on our clothes after two nights there. I reported the smell to the host after our first night and they said they would look into it tomorrow (after we would be finished with our stay). The neighborhood is dodgy and loud.

    There was enough space in the living room and the shower was hot.

    Attention to detail with cleaning. Sound proof windows as there are 3 pubs within 100M of the property and you can hear everything outside. The bathroom: * toilet is loose, * toile roll holder needs replacing, * toilet brush needs replacing, * tap needs repai before major damage occurs.

    Inside looked great, had WiFi and was easy to find.

    It isn't 5* accommodation, and really any negative comments would be injust, as it exceeded my own and the other guesrs expectations

    Cost, location, cleanliness and easiness of getting in. Short walk into town, easy to drive to, very clean, good facilites etc
