Pros:

Mukavuudet olivat hyvät! Majoituspaikassa oli sauna, uima-allas ja poreallas, jotka lisäsivät viihtyvyyttä. Huoneisto oli sopivan tilava ja rakennus sijaitsi keskeisellä paikalla. Varaukseen kuului myös autopaikka parkkihallissa.

Cons:

Huoneiston pinnat olivat kuluneita, mistä tuli epäsiisti vaikutelma.

Comfortable bed
Pros:

Bed was comfortable, good views from balcony, had washing machine and a dryer, right in surface Paradise.

Cons:

It had old fashioned furniture like back in the '70's and 80s and a lounge that was very low 8 or 10 inches from the ground sitting on, some of the cutlery were dirty with grease on them weren't clean properly had grapes under the coffee table so carpet wasn't cleaned coffee cups and coffee stained still in them so they don't clean the whole room properly

Sensational location but apartment needed to be better stocked with bare essentials.
Pros:

Hi Guys, location was great, very clean and staff at front desk were lovely.

Cons:

There was no ironing board. No hand towels for bathroom and not a lot of glassware/mugs etc. One pack of dishwashing detergent isn't a great deal for a few days.

Great Views Without Great Service!!
Pros:

The view was amazing and one of the reasons I booked this property, it did not disappoint. The TV was reasonable for a holiday TV and after closing the sliding screen door there was almost no sound coming in from outside, almost like soundproof. The hot tub at the facility was great and the view from the rooftop was simply amazing.

Cons:

The bed. They wanted to charge us for an extra bed after we already booked for two males, and on the listing at booking it said nothing about one bedroom apartment. Also the pillows were very firm and we had to change them. It was an effort to get this done. Secondly, the sauna was not functioning at the time of our stay which was a disappointment. It was an effort to find where the spa was actually located too. There was no room service and some of the remotes in the room did not work for fans. No clear place told me where to put the rubbish either.

Relaxing
Pros:

Great location

Cons:

Showers are very out dated could use a update with a better hot water system and better shower head. When we got there no one would answer the after hours phone was a muck around trying to check in

Nice view and location, but staff, shower and smoke weren’t fabulous
Pros:

Loved the view and the location as it was walking distance to everywhere.

Cons:

Our bathroom. Each time you’d turn the water on, it would pool up instantly, which suggests there was a built up of hair in the drain. Could not shower for more then 20-30seconds without it flooding over the ledge. Also the hallway stunk of cigarette smoke, couldn’t escape the smell. Staff were also rude and not very accomodating.

Very comfortable
Pros:

Lovely view of beach which is 1 minute walk across the road crossing. Bars restaurants and shopping centre3-5 mins walk away

Cons:

Nothing about the property but surfers food is mostly basic food which is great for the younger generation but not so good for older people, there was a lovely Italian near the police station.
