However unfortunately lack of maintenance both the central heating and the gas fire did not work on arrival . I contacted the owner and was told to buy new batteries for the heating I was not impressed with that so she said she would send her cleaners to have a look . Due to the time of day I decided to purchase new batteries . I was refunded And I had the central heating working before the cleaners arrived but the gas fire would not work . Not really the way to start a holiday in October . Re cleaning the apartment was clean but unfortunately the rear patio door to the bedroom and the kitchen door and window were very dirty and the nice little rear garden was full of weeds and finally the double bed was very small and extremely uncomfortable I feel all of the above could be sorted very easily and then it would be a first class apartment for holidays and return business.
