Great location, beautiful views. Comfortable apartment.

Having to return the keys to an office 2.5km away! Perhaps not a problem if driving, but ...

Everything is top-notch and, of course, the view is stunning!! Honestly felt SO relaxing my blood pressure must have dropped 20 points!

Not suitable for elderly - no lifts in Clarence, and then there are stairs in the apartment. Otherwise, great place, etc.

Was just a little bit of hassle to drive a few minutes from the property to collect the keys and then to drop the keys back off again afterwards but not unacceptable.

Lovely friendly staff.

There was one serious safety issue two and other issues regarding this accommodation; The bi-fold door for the lower bedroom is a serious safety hazard should swift exit from the room be required during an emergency. The door closes in on itself when pushed shut and cannot be opened (no handle on the inside) without having to get onto the floor and prise it open with your fingers - however, once you manage to get the door to open slightly, the top of it catches on a steel pillar outside the room preventing it opening fully without having to work it back and forth! If there were a fire and the occupant of the room was not aware of the malfunctioning door, the result could be quite disastrous. A second hazard was that there was no anti-slip mat provided for the over bath shower and the bath surface is not non-slip. I am an able bodied middle aged person and found it quite dicey, it's a simple fix that could prevent a possible accident. We arrived for our first night in the dark and when I tried to lower the venetian blind in the lower bedroom, it came away from the ceiling fixing, jammed and could not be lowered or closed. I reported it immediately as it was still during business hours. The following day nothing was done to rectify the blind. I called the managing agent again who said it had been referred and will refer it again. The follow day I called the managing agent only to told that the owner would not be replacing/fixing the blind during our stay as it has happened a few times before and are expensive to replace! I spent the entire duration of our stay (4 nights) in a bedroom with a very large window (approx 7 ft high) with absolutely zero privacy (there were builders across the road on scaffolding early each morning) and zero blackout for sleeping - I found it quite appalling that not even a temporary measure was attempted in order to provide comfort for a paying guest. I hope the owner has a similar experience in holiday accommodation...

Collecting the keys was not straight forward - requiring a visit to another property away from the accommodation. Not very well explained as to where the accommodation is, particularly in the dark.

Shower was warm and poor flow rate, taps all worked well with hot water

We booked through Booking.com but we’re told by another company that we had booked through them, Pure Services where we had to collect the key from which was very inconvenient.

Fantastic location. Amazing view.

Would have rated higher if it wasn’t for the fact that the keys had to be collected and then returned to a completely different location. Also I think charging £12 per day for parking when they have a designated parking space is not good. In my opinion it should be included and would be an extra selling point. Lovely accommodation but I wouldn’t stay here again for those reasons.

The location was lovely and the sea view was really nice.

Picking up keys from a different location was a complete nightmare and would put us off staying again. I'm sure we won't be the only ones to find this a problem.

Absolutely amazing location and fantastic views from the apartment. Apartment has everything we could possibly want. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Some of the appliances were tired fridge, freezer. It was a boiling hot day and the freezer was off and there was no ice for drinks. The addition of some small tables in the front room would have helped wiv drinks.

Collecting the keys, i hadn't realised at booking that we would need to go somewhere else to collect them. We then found the key office and there was a note on the door telling us it was closed and we needed to go somewhere else. The downstairs bedroom and lounge blinds couldn't be pulled down, it was difficult to sleep because of this. I did mention this when I dropped the keys back to the office. The stairs to access the apartment in the building, there was no lift and the treads were short. This was hard with a baby and child and all the kit that was needed, up and down the stairs.

Very spacious and clean. Netflix for the children. The location.

Poor instructions for shower. No dishwasher. Biggest gripe was having to pick up and drop of keys into city centre. We would not have booked if we knew this at time of booking. Additional cost for parking

The apartment was lovely. Clean, comfortable, great view? Ideal for viewing fireworks.

Check in was inconvenient. Too far away, too complicated and much harder than it should be for such an amazing property.

Everything. Amazing building, amazing apartment, amazing view.

Had to go into town, a distance away from the unit, to pick up and return keys 

The location and space.

We couldn't open the downstairs bedroom window or blind. No tables to put drinks on, if sitting in the lounge which seems shortsighted. Art work!! The stupidity of the key collection and the unexpected parking charges

Sea view from the first floor window and the comfortable beds. Good choice of restaurants in the complex.

No lift or dishwasher, not quite enough plates or cutlery. Really really loud seagulls!

Great location, good development with nice restaurants and bars. Well positioned for boat trips, museum and the hoe.

Key collection and return a complete faff. It's at a completely different site. They take £100 damage deposit on collection of keys, but you don't know this until AFTER you book the accom with email stating an admin fee deduction when return your deposit up to 7 days later. Not 'disability' or baby/pram friendly. Parking fee £12.50 but can't get key to accom and park there until after 1600 and have to leave at 1030. Don't pay them for parking, you get better deal by parking in the main car park for £15 for 24hrs.

Just a couple of niggles: The blinds in the living room would not come down properly so did not blackout the light for my son who was sleeping on the sofa bed. A second set of keys would be useful as some of our party were coming in later than the rest. But neither of these things spoiled our stay and we would definitely visit again

The location is stunning, I could watch the view from the living room window all day. The apartment is stunning and was fantastic for our family group. This location was perfect for my son's passing out parade at HMS Raleigh

The bathroom really needs a tidy up, no handle bars near to the bath, the drain plug from the bathroom sink is broken, the bottle holders in the fridge are missing...
