We enjoyed our stay. Fantastic location, short walk to the promenade, lots of restaurants nearby. Overall, it was a lovely stay. But I think travellers should be aware of a few things before booking:
- the apartment is located on the 4th floor. There are no elevators so we had to carry our massive suitcases up 4 flights. Walking up 4 flights wasn't an issue for us, apart from the luggage, but this may pose a problem for elderly/injured people, etc.
- the pillows were lumpy.
- my half of the bed was very comfortable, but my partner's half had a bit of a sink hole. Easily fixed with a change of the mattress.
- some of the finishings in the apartment are quite dated, such as the wooden floor that has just been painted over and the shower flooring which has a raised pebble finish (if you're very particular about bathrooms and you like showers with flat tiles and clean lines this may not be for you). The furniture is modern.
-the fibre and Netflix were brilliant additions to the apartment.
- it's difficult to sleep there due to the amount of sunlight. The window blinds do not adequately block out the sun. Black out curtains would be a better option.
The doors have a frosted glass finish, it let's in too much sunlight. By 06h00 in summer the sun is out in full force and the entire apartment becomes too bright. We woke up at the crack of dawn every day.
-the host was accommodating with regards to storing our luggage after check out.
