The apartment is as it appears in the photographs and the location, adjacent to the cathedral and Royal palace is perfect. We were able to have a fabulous time in Palma.
But there were some issues with the accommodation.
Odour - The apartment was clean but there was a damp and musty odour throughout the apartment. The problem was that the odour transferred to our clothes hanging in the wardrobe and we noticed this after we left Palma to continue our holiday in Majorca.
Stairs - the apartment was located on the 3rd floor. The stairs were very steep, narrow and winding and there were lots of steps. As our stay in Palma was the first part of our holiday, we had large suitcases and so it was difficult carrying our luggage up to the apartment. There was no indication in the description of the steep, narrow stairs. We I'd not expect an elevator but it would be helpful to alert guests to the steep stairs.
Building works - before we confirmed our booking with Tim, on the 5th March 2019, we specifically asked whether the building works which we had seen mentioned in other reviews had ended. Tim told us that they had. So we were surprised on our arrival on the 7 June, to see that the building nextdoor was surrounded by scaffolding and to hear the sound of drilling. On most days except Sunday the drilling began at between 7.45am and 8.30am. We also noticed that if the windows were left open during the day, a significant amount of dust gathered on the furniture.
Some recognition of the ongoing building works should have been a factor in determining the price through a discount of some kind.
