Guests have enjoyed their stays at Harbourside Haven Apartment 2, often praising its prime location with lovely harbour views, proximity to the beach, and local amenities. The apartment is described as clean, well-furnished, and cosy, with a modern decor. Some guests mentioned minor issues with parking, cutlery, and crockery, but these did not significantly detract from the overall positive experience.
The apartment consistently receives high praise for its cleanliness, with guests describing it as 'spotless' and 'immaculate'. This indicates a very high standard of cleanliness throughout the property.
The location is highly regarded due to its convenience for accessing the beach, town, and local attractions. The views of the inner harbour are frequently appreciated, contributing to the property's appeal.
The apartment is generally considered comfortable, with a warm and cosy atmosphere and good beds. However, some guests found the sofas uncomfortable and the shower space restrictive, which slightly lowers the comfort score.
Facilities are well-received with a few maintenance issues such as garage door problems and a lack of instructions for appliances. The parking situation is noted as challenging for larger vehicles. These factors lead to a slightly reduced score.
There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the hosts in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category. Therefore, the score is set to null.

Appreciated the tea/coffee and dishwasher tablets that were left. We just managed to get our Honda Jazz into the car parking space but anything larger than that won't make it. Only slight niggle was I struggled to turn off the underfloor heating as requested when we left - maybe look into leaving a bit more detail on this ?. But other than that, a great break, many thanks.

My only criticism are that the sofas are too small and uncomfortable to be able to relax. There were 4 of us staying a the apartment and we felt very crammed sitting side by side on the 2 x 2 seater sofas. The lounge is big enough to accommodate larger furniture, so when the time comes to replace the current sofa's I would suggest 2 x 3 seaters would be much more comfortable, or at least 2 bigger 2 seaters. Also the towels provided are very small. We would have preferred to have been provided with a larger bath-sheet per person. All of that said, we would definitely stay again.

There were though a couple of quite serious issues: - We tended to eat out but, when we ate in, the kitchen was a little under appointed for cooking. Workrounds were possible but there was one very important issue. Six mugs was far too few for a group of four adults. We had to buy six ourselves to ensure that we did not have to wash up after every cup of tea or coffee - The shower head over the bath in the bathroom was almost completely blocked with limescale. We had to purchase and use descalant before we could have a decent shower.
