The apartment generally meets cleanliness expectations, but there have been a few mentions of areas needing better cleaning and minor maintenance. These comments, however, are not widespread, suggesting that cleanliness is satisfactory for most guests.
The location is highly praised for its proximity to the sea, lovely beaches, and coastal walks. The scenic views and easy access to local attractions contribute to a high score in this category.
Guests find the apartment comfortable, with special mentions of a powerful shower and comfortable beds. However, there are comments about a saggy mattress and noisy pipes, slightly affecting the comfort score.
The apartment is well-equipped with high-quality amenities, but several reviews mention issues with appliances, a TV, and maintenance concerns. The management's prompt response to reported problems mitigates the impact on the 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.

The fridge being turned off and the carbon monoxide alarm expiring at 6am did not detract from this. We hope to return!

The appartment is in need of some minor TLC. This would not stop me visiting again as its very well equipped and has amazing views. Perfect location for coastal walks to Hope Cove and Bantham.
