Would definitely stay again.
Pros:

Excellent location and good value.

Cons:

It was a bit cramped, partly due to design but also having a king bed which was too big for bedroom.

Pros:

The location was great,right in the heart of town,yet quiet. Room was small but comfortable. The bed was very comfy. Serviced daily with a change of towels if we wanted it. Secure garaged parking.

Cons:

There was nothing I didnt like but could be improved with a check of eqipment,like one bedside lamp didnt work,which I presume would only be a globe. The blind in the bedroom was quite marked/ dirty, a clean would have been easy to do. Lack of powerpoints to charge our phones, we had to use one under a table against the wall.

Recommend for short stay, location great ... will return again.
Pros:

This property is in great location for our needs .... close to main centre, shops, restaurants, pubs; all walking distance. Apartments are becoming a little dated, requiring updates and maintenance but quite comfortable and enough space.

Cons:

Very little to dislike .... management / staff very friendly and helpful. Perhaps some modernisation and refurbishment would benefit. Value for money otherwise OK.

Disappointing stay despite the great location.
Pros:

The location was good, within walking distance of beach and shops. The staff do their best to be helpful.

Cons:

The main reason for booking somewhere to sleep is to … sleep. We didn’t sleep well. Building works next door gave us a very early start on the first morning. The second night was a bit better, though the beds are on the very firm side, but on the third night, when we had more neighbours, the noise from the upstairs apartment and the continual all night noise from the split system from another upstairs apartment made sleep elusive. There are also some issues with cleanliness and a shower door that leaks lots of water onto the bathroom floor.
