The apartment in St Ives is praised for its perfect location with amazing views over the harbour and comfortable accommodation. Guests have enjoyed the balcony and the property's wonderful position. However, there was an isolated report of cleanliness issues and lack of amenities such as soap and functional TV remote, as well as the absence of WiFi and disturbance from the smell of cooking meat from below.
Most reviews do not mention cleanliness, but one negative review cites an unclean feeling and lack of soap, significantly impacting the score.
The location is consistently lauded for its fantastic views and easy access, though one review notes the downside of noise and odours from a nearby shop.
The apartment is described as very comfortable and accommodating, with only one review suggesting discomfort due to external factors.
While there are mentions of a broken washing machine and TV, there is insufficient information on the overall state of facilities and maintenance to provide a score.
There are no mentions of gifts or additional thoughtful touches provided by the host, so this category cannot be scored.

We have rented many places in St Ives and I have to say we haven't had a worse experience than this one. The place simply felt unclean. There was no soap in the bathroom - we had to go out and purchase are own. The TV did not work. The rental company did someone out to fix it., which got it functional - but we had to leave it on and mute it all the time, because the remote control simply didn't work. There is no excuse for any holiday let to not provide wifi. This is 2024. Everyone needs it. It is not a high cost for the home owner, but deeply inconvenient for the renter to find out it isn't provided. This unit is right above a Cornish Pasty shop. For vegetarians, the constant smell of cooking meat was intolerable, and resulted in our leaving after one day in the unit. Even if you are not a vegetarian, the smell becomes overwhelming very quickly. We couldn't leave the windows closed because it was way too hot. But with the windows open the smell and the noise was intolerable ... and the noise went on until well after 1am. I'm sorry to say it was a relatively miserable experience. The only time I could see anyone wanting this unit is in the winter time when you can keep all the windows closed and the noise is not so bad. It does have lovely views of the harbor, but everything else negated our ability to enjoy them. We paid for 4 days and left after one.
