It was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. It was very convenient and a short walk to shops and restaurants. My only criticism is that the property would benefit from updating.

It is in a perfect position. Views were amazing looking across the harbour with waves crashing against the sea walls. Stunning. Central in the town and with three pubs within yards.Whatâs not to like.. The apartment was well maintained and had plenty of kitchen equipment, crockery etc to satisfy our needs. The groceries that were left for us were appreciated. We used the basement garage which was handy for putting one car in and the cycles. Parking was handy at both entrances. Just two small matters. Under the double bed downstairs there was accumulated dust which we mentioned to the cleaners and on the last day a slight smell of oil coming from below. Other than that perfect.

The house looks tired and in need of a redecoration, the twin bedroom on the first floor,the paint work on the walls are marked and looked grubby. The small single bedroom didn't actually work for us, the window wall and window was showing signs of mould.And It wasn't possible to leave the window open in the room as the fumes and smell of oil was coming in!our son that who was supposedly staying couldn't stay in the room and slept in the lounge! The spa shower in the bath didn't work. The toilet on the third floor wasn't really suitable unless you were under 4,6 feet in hight,or you were a contortionist and didn't mind burning your head on the ceiling light. The staircase up to the third floor in my opinion was a bit dodgy, it has a single hand rail on one side which wasn't the issue. However the stair riser on the left hand side purtrudes above the floor level and is a trip hazard. As I said previously, the position of the property and the views from the lounge are excellent, but the rest of the property let's it down.
