The staff sorted the water out quite quickly but obviously couldn't help with the wifi,I understand the mobile phone signal is not good but the wifi should be better. Having said that, we still love 23 the causeway.

This apartment didnât offer any of these. As most other reviews have mentioned the apartment does offer an amazing front row seat to views of the sea and Burgh Island and is just steps away from the beach. The kitchen is well appointed with modern appliances and all the âstuffâ thatâs needed to self cater. But, for us, good views didnât compensate for the fact that the beds were uncomfortably soft, we were not able to take a hot shower, and the internet was abysmal. The mattress and bedding made sleeping unpleasant. The mattresses and pillows felt very used and the fitted sheets were âpiledâ and quite uncomfortable to sleep on. No matter what we tried with using the hot water âboostâ button, the shower went cold just after a few seconds, as such we had to resort to taking showers in the pool changing room. The internet speed varied from an extremely slow 500 kbps to a very slow 1.3 mbps. As there is little to no cell service for Three or O2 in that area, the slow internet impacted communication with family via WhatsApp or wifi calling. It also made watching shows on Netflix or freeview frustrating by periodically having to wait for the TV catch-up downloading a programme . (I would recommend downloading any shows you want to watch on your laptop before you arrive.) I have read other reviews dating back to early last year that mention the issues with the beds and Internet and, for the money it costs to stay there, I would expect something to have been done about them.

I would suggest that the position of the reserved car park could be described by you as it took the help of the leisure manager to find it.
