Very close to information centre, Marina and town centre. Not great view of bay because of all the buildings in front. The only cooking facilities was an air fryer and a microwave. No face to face with staff, all communication was done via text . The apartment itself was very comfortable.

The room was not cleaned. Dust on many surfaces, pubic hair in the shower, utterly disgusting. No wardrobe in the room. Location is great, easy access to eateries and the beach. It would be fitting to be advertised as a backpacker or budget style accommodation and priced accordingly.

A really good location, and nice rooms. No reception desk which would be fine if there was a means of communication but we found the communication to be very poor.
