    That the fans didn't work without the lights on. Would have been nice with the hot weather too have the fans on at night. Not a dislike really, just a shame there was a bit of lack of attention to details where small things were broken

    Apartment wasn't that clean - floors and balcony rail and toilet walls dirty. One of the duvet covers was torn and the pillows are not fresh. I understand previous tenants went out very late, however, we shouldnt be punished for that.

    View is great. Location is great. Lovely apartment with great fittings. Apartment is modern and well furnished. Spacious apartment. Balcony is shielded from wind.

    The rooms were not that clean, especially the carpet in bedrooms. Otherwise everything else is top notch. And the balcony view it is to die for, sooooo amazing.

    Given the apartment was on the 15th floor, there was a lot of noise from the wind so that was a bit challenging in terms of sleep. The apartment windows and latches are a bit rusty so we had an issue where the latch on one window broke hence needed to be fixed. However, there was great communication from the host so we were able to resolve any issues.

    We enjoyed the spectacular beach views, the facilities were extremely useful and very functional in terms of washing machine, tumble dryer, hob, kettle, toaster etc. Everything you could need for a stay. The location was great for us as easy access to the beach and short drive to restaurants, etc.

    We had a great stay. The reception was friendly and helpful, and they even checked the electricity was topped up during our stay. The hosts were professional, and the apartment was clean and neat when we arrived. The location is great, with easy access to the beach, and to get out of Strand to go to the airport, etc., was easy. We had an undercover parking, and they even provided us with a dishwashing tablet for the dishwasher machine in the apartment. Our breakage deposit was returned the same day when we checked out - great service!

    I believe the venue need an upgrade. The seating infront od the TV was uncomfortable. The seating on the balcony was dirty and need urgent attention. I share my views with Amanda and would like to use the venue again in future. I am also of the opinion that booking.com mislead me with pictures of a venue. The apartment we ocuupied was not the same as on the pictures. This influence my choice of venues.

    The service from Amanda at Loddeys was great. The venues was great and save.

    The light in shower does not work. Lights in bedroom and bathroom switch off within seconds of switching them on. The place is not very clean, marks on the wall, carpet and scatter pillows dirty. The chair in bedroom is broken. We were booked for two evenings but left after one evening because of the the state of the apartment we stayed in, we were expecting way better. The price is way to high for what you get. The shower gel liquid soap containers weren't even refilled. The place looks very run down, and is in need of a serious upgrade. With such a beautiful view, alot can be done to make this place a better stay and value for money.

    The view is stunning. The bed is comfortable.

    no sponge to wash dishes. funny drain smell coming from one of the kitchen appliances and no real space to pack groceries. no extra blanket in main bedroom. a vacuum would be nice instead of a broom, especially since majority of the apartment is carpeted, can get messy with kids.

    great views, comfortable and cosy for a small family. Has all the basics

    The place was cleaned but however needs a proper deep clean. we arrived a little bit earlier and found the cleaners still there. The scatter pillows in the main bedroom all of it were dirty and had some hair stuck to it. Other than that the place is beautiful, we had absolutely lovely stay

    selfcatering apartment close to restaurants and shops view absolutely stunning, directly opposite the beach, easily accessible via lift/elevator tastefully decorated. lovely bath and shower facilities.. place is huge and fully equipped kitchen everything you will need for a comfortable stay. The host even had coffee and tea, milk and bottled water on arrival

    Location was amazing even though the wind was a bit strong over the weekend we still had an amazing time!!! Everything in the apartment was spectacular, especially the on suite bathroom in both rooms.
