Sharonda has a really lovely space for guests. The apartment is well furnished and comfortable. It is in a good location with easy access to the city centre.
We were very pleasantly surprised by how well stocked the apartment was. There were plenty of items in the bathroom in case you forget your own. Tea, coffee and filtered water was provided. I thought this was a very nice touch.
The only negative comment we had relates to our check-in. I appreciate that we arrived at around 11pm, but we had warned our hosts in advance of the late arrival. When we arrived, we collected the key as directed. As soon as we entered the apartment the security alarm asked us for a code. We hadn’t been told that an alarm would go off and we didn’t have the code. A gentleman came down from the main house to help us turn this off, but he was really quite rude and not at all welcoming. I don’t think he even said hello. When I asked if the alarm would go off every time we opened the door I got quite a snarky “it will if you set it”. He seemed very annoyed at us for disturbing him, but I’m not sure how we could have prevented this.
To avoid being disturbed in the future it would be helpful to either give the guests the code in advance or avoid setting the alarm in the first place. It wasn’t a great start to an otherwise very pleasant stay.
