Although the apartments are good this was the worst one we have stayed in. The bed in the master bedroom was really uncomfortable & past itâs sell by date. We didnât sleep all week. The bedding was like sandpaper & really uncomfortable. The washing machine when used stunk the entire apartment out & made our clothes smell worse after washing. The tumble dryer barely dried anything so we had to give up. The apartment is clearly due some money spending on it. It needs redecorating as thereâs scuffs on the walls & doors. The two chairs in the living area are looking grubby. The decking on the balcony needs pressure washing & restaining. There are cracked tiles around the tap in the master bathroom & the shelf above the sink is hanging off itâs brackets. The increase in prices since covid for these apartments is totally unjustified as the quality hasnât improved.

Lovely and warm on arrival (Feb 2023) The only thing that we would of liked is a TV in one of the bedrooms to enable my grandson to watch kidâs programs and nice to watch the News when having a cup of tea in bed! Other than that amazing property, very modern and well thought out. Would definitely return.
