  What a great well positioned, well stocked and clean apartment in walking distance of all amenities.

  We had 4 glorious days at this lovely apartment. As somebody who struggles when away with the comfort of beds and especially pillows I cannot fault either they were both so comfortable. Had a great nights sleep. However this was marred by the fact that the bedroom window is sealed shut and cannot be opened. It was very windy two of the nights we were there and the wind was howling around the back court yard and even though the window is sealed it didn’t stop the draft coming in which made the blind bang against the window so if a light sleeper this may not be so good. Wasn’t a lover of the bath and shower bath was very deep and uncomfortable no free shower head. Could do with some extra/bigger towels as the small hand towels are no good for washing long hair. We would recommend buying a parking permit for the car park a 2min walk away as parking on the street is not always possible. With all this said we still had had a great time and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending a stay here due to the fantastic location.

  We enjoyed our week at the Deck Studio.

  Our host and hostess were keen for us to feel at home and we were thankful for the welcoming items that they included for us. We appreciated them providing a new cafetiere straight away when we mentioned the old one was missing. There was plenty of hot water for our needs and the portable electric heater did a good job when the temperature dipped. The accommodation was spacious considering it was a studio flat and we liked the privacy, bearing in mind the owners lived above us. We liked the airy feel of the flat and it afforded a splendid view of the English Channel. With the vagaries of the English weather, we were grateful for the wide screen TV and the DVD player. We would have liked a little more crockery and glass tumblers would have been a welcome addition. There was no oven which limited what we were able to cook. We would not recommend this property to anyone who has mobility issues, but for us it was a decent base for a happy week in Ventnor.

  We really enjoyed staying in the flat, it was conveniently situated and had an excellent sea view, the kitchen was good and well equipped.

  There were however some drawbacks that we would like to mention, and we noticed had already been referred to by other customers. Firstly the towels were totally inadequate, they were very thin and soaked after one use. Moreover, the flat has no facility for drying anything once the radiators are turned off. We had to buy supplementary bath towels during our stay in order to dry ourselves after a shower. The wifi was very slow and kept cutting out-this may be beyond the owner's control of course. The owner had left some DVDs but there was no remote controller for the DVD player and no controls on the player. I texted one of the contact numbers given to ask about the controller and was disappointed to receive absolutely no acknowledgement of my text, let alone any information. Realistically, parking outside the flat is not possible. It would be useful to give more details of the tourist parking permit which is good value

  The property is poorly equiped, it is not up to modern standards.

  It is not possible to have a comfortable shower, no shower curtain is present which means you u have to squat in the bath and use the hand held shower to rinse yourself down. On small dim light over the sink for the bathroom. We had to leave it on 10mins to warm up before you could see anything. No curtains in the dressing area or the glass kitchen door which leads to the bedroom meaning bedroom too light to sleep well. Bed uncomfortable. No storage for food in the kitchen and cooking facilities poor. We stayed two nights and then left. Possibly an error on our part not reading the listing properly but definitely not worth the money we paid and not up to modern stds or expectations for 2022. Very disappointing

  We had a lovely time at The Deck Studio.

  It was just as stated on the details, with amazing views from the decking area where we were lucky as the weather so good , to eat our breakfast out every morning. We really liked the little extras that were provided and the friendly welcome from the owners. It is about a 20 minute walk to the sea front and bars and restaurants great walking down , but not so good walking back up the hill although you can catch the Number 3 bus which runs frequently so it wasn’t a problem for us. All in all a fab holiday . Thank you Marilyn and John Sue and Tom
