  • "Disappointed with the property as not very comfortable in the living area."

    Balcony also not clean, I had to buy a brush to sweep up a lot of mess, and wash it down. Cooking facilities were fine and the property was clean, could do with some tlc. Bed was very comfortable and shower is amazing!! Unfortunately would not stay again.

  • "We were happy with the location of the apartment, we were also happy with the cleanliness of the apartment."

    The thing that we struggled with was the very strong smell of stale cigarettes. Luckily enough due to it being July, we could open the balcony doors. This helped a little during the day but we struggled during the night time. If we had booked for any longer than the 2 nights we would have had to leave

    Thank you, I'm glad it was clean and you enjoyed the lovely location but am puzzled by the smell of smoke as it is absolutely a no smoking property. I suspect that some previous guests have broken the rules. Property Owner

  • "The balcony was worn and the floor was covered in horrible black slime so everytime we went out we where treading it in."

    We took the carpet up in living space in case it got ruined .the place smelled of smoke .the tv kept cutting out.dvd didn't work.batteries where all covered in acid inside the remote.very small towels.and only half a toilet roll to start the weekend with.looked outside of bedroom window and all we could see is bins.gave up after two days went home.

    Thank you for protecting the carpet. The Welsh rain normally cleans the balcony. I have left some replacement batteries. The view from the bedroom is onto the bins, as you say, but the view from the living room and the balcony is absolutely stunning as shown in the photographs. It is a non-smoking property Property Owner
