"Good location, good size flat."
Welcome pack was a very nice touch and full of useful things. Overall cleanliness was pretty good and West Bay is a sweet little village.
The maintenance really let it down though. Neither of the flushes on the toilets worked properly, the shower head leaked most of the water out of the top, the bottom bunk had a large crack in it and creaked ominously each time you moved, the windows were filthy and the lift was broken. All things that would be easy to fix but we had the feeling they had been like this for a while.

"Overall a solid, good place to stay location wise."
The small town of Westbay has got enough to keep you entertained for a couple of days. Parking was convenient and the beach a couple of minutes walk.
The beds and bedding did let it down and would be a deal breaker in us returning.
The double bed in the main bedroom was very small, and the bedding thin and cheap feeling. We are average height and size and it didn't offer the kind of comfort you'd hope for on a holiday break.

"Fantastic spacious apartment."
No DVD as advertised.
On the whole cleanliness was good.
Bathrooms need maintenence, flushes on toilets not always working, no plug in en suite and shower needs new head.
The big let down was that building work was going on in next door apartment so very noisy.

"Very spacious & clean."
The double glazing was not fit for purpose. The road noise was horrendous, especially at weekends due to the motorbikes constantly revving up as they rode by.. Cars were noisy even after 11pm, therefore we had a disrupted week of sleeping. On Friday 18th evening a constant sound in the strong wind was the cafe bellows sign banging against the wall. This is not the place to go if you want a quiet relaxing holiday by the sea.!
Do not take any notice of directions to car park.should be left not right!

"The flat evidently had not seen a handyman for some time; balcony door needs attention, many of the fittings in the shower room were loose."
The mattress on the bottom bunk was the most uncomfortable ever. Comfort was eased by putting the top bunk mattress on top of the other mattress but was still unsatisfactory as it meant I banged my head every time I wanted to get out of bed! There is room for twin beds in the second bedroom so suggest the bunk beds are replaced with one bed under the window & the second along the wall opposite the TV. If the bunk beds were replaced with single beds (with decent mattresses), I would consider returning as the location was perfect, especially with under cover parking. There were stains on the dining room chairs and the sofa. The windows were filthy. We liked the large sofa.

"This is a really good flat well positioned in West Bay and we enjoyed being there."
We arrived late evening and the welcome pack was particularly helpful. It’s very clean, comfortable and we experienced no noise from other apartments. Parking arrangement works well. Wouldn’t hesitate to go again.
The only reason I didn't give cleanliness top score is that the windows were very stained by sea gulls of which there are many! Cleaner windows would be great but it’s not really a complaint.

"Lovely flat, with a superb sized en-suite."
Very comfortable for 2 adults, plus 2 children. Don't think it would be so good for 4 adults. Excellent location. Would definitely return.

"Superb flat, exactly what we wanted."
Very comfortable, with plenty of space, and a great position.
The only, very minor, issue we had was the toilet in the ensuite. The flush needed some practice to work correctly.

"This is our 3rd time staying at this apartment and it never disappoints."
It is a perfect location for us and has the added bonus of a lift and parking space - both of which are important for us. Inside is well presented and very clean. It has everything you need in the kitchen - except for egg cups!!
We will definitely be back again and would recommend this apartment to anyone planning a trip to the area.

"Good secure parking."
The apartment was very clean, and the wonderful welcome pack was a nice touch. The only slight negative was the drain smell in the en-suit. Would gladly stay here again.
We are sorry to hear of the drain smell and will ask the housekeeper to investigate and rectify the issue.

"Perfectly located within 250m of the harbour at West Bay and views inland of the hills beyond."
Great for walkers and those touring.
The flat was exceptionally clean and tidy on arrival and has all the facilities you would require. Decor is a bit tired but not shabby.
The welcome pack, including a fresh pint of milk, was gratefully received!
We would definitely stay here again.
