A great 9 days for our first trip in CT and the apartment was part of our wonderful experience. The view is clearly a big part of the appeal we had mixed weather but even with the windows closed the apartment was delightfully cosy. Neil was super helpful. The location is on top of a hill we did leave the apartment most mornings to walk into the town. Although the area is not the “Waterfront”, for us it was interesting and we never felt intimidated quite the opposite. Like everyone, you need to be aware of the power cuts. The less than friendly security, were numerous always present. We didn’t really use the outside area. We found everything value for money-around 25% less than the UK. If pushed, I would say that apartment was at best just value for money. We thought this was a perfect choice for our first trip: location, owners, décor, view and really pleased it was the choice we went for. Our next visit will probably be outside the city as we explore further (this limited by airbnb
