Guests say

Guests generally appreciate the Albert Apartment for its well-equipped spaces, comfortable furnishings, and secure courtyard, ideal for pets. The property is praised for its cleanliness, modern amenities, and welcoming touches. While parking is noted as challenging due to a narrow driveway, the location is convenient for local shops and parks, with some beaches accessible by car.

The majority of reviews highlight the apartment's cleanliness, describing it as spotless and well-maintained. This consistent praise suggests a high standard of cleanliness throughout the property.

The location is deemed good, with easy access to local shops and attractions. However, some guests mention the need for a car to reach beaches and other towns, and limited street parking, which slightly affects the convenience.

Comfort is frequently commended, with guests finding the beds comfortable and the living spaces well-furnished. Some noise from upstairs occupants and parking difficulties are minor discomforts mentioned.

Facilities are generally well-received, with a well-equipped kitchen and thoughtful amenities. Some guests suggest minor improvements in kitchenware, and a recommendation for a walk-in shower indicates room for enhancement in facilities for disabled guests.

Guests often mention thoughtful gestures such as welcome gifts, which contribute to a welcoming atmosphere. While these gifts are appreciated, it is important to note that such extras, while delightful, are not guaranteed with every stay.

    The apartment was very well equipped and comfortable.On arrival there was a distinct smell of ‘dog’ which was rather off putting.There were times when the occupants upstairs could be heard.The parking was difficult, as it is quite narrow, and you are also expected, once parked, to leave room for the upstairs apartment to access their shed, which was virtually impossible with the length of our vehicle.There is very limited street parking available.Overall we enjoyed our stay although we would not return.

    It was a very comfortable stay. From the moment we arrived, the sat nav took us straight there and the double fronted cottage with palm trees outside easy to spot in a long street due to the photograph provided. Parking on the driveway right by the front door. Large spacious very well furnished lounge diner. Great for our little dog as the only carpet is in the inner hallway and an enclosed wrap round courtyard was totally secure and private. Bathroom and kitchen fully fitted and well equipped with great appliances. Everything you need for a family or a couple like ourselves. Lots of space for entertaining and having family & friends over who can park in the residential street out front. Comfortable beds and bed linen, fluffy white towels etc. Even had extras provided for our arrival. Felt very welcoming and as though the host cares about your stay. The place was spotles throughout, light, bright and airey. Books, games, TVs with all the apps. Large Waitrose 3 mins in the car

    What a fabulous apartment! Everything you need was supplied by the owners including condiments, tea towels/hand towels in the kitchen, ample toilet rolls, washing lines and a fabulous welcome pack! The location was very good and even though in a very populated area, extremely quiet. The driveway is snug, we have a kodiaq but managed to get it up drive ok. Albert apartment was extremely clean throughout, a very well equipped kitchen, reclining settees and chairs, comfortable bed. A great find, would definitely go back again.
