"Clean, what we needed and close to the beach. Great fun!"

10.0

It was welcoming and easily accessible with the key code numbers given. Hosts messaged us regularly to make sure we were ok

Really minor but… I am short and had to stand in furniture to open the slats on the blinds!

"Great apartment near the sea will come again, fab host"

10.0

Everything we needed for our weekend stay we had tea coffee and sugar left for us few toiletries and cleaning products a washing machine and dish washer was appreciated,comfy beds,hot shower, tv that worked although the OK button was hard almost impossible to use maybe a new remote is needed? we were able to use the other buttons so it wasnt the batteries we were out all day so it was only later on in the evening that we even turned the telly on so didnt bother us too much.The apartment was clean,the host was quick to get back to any queries and we were a minute from the pier and sea. Parking and a small garden for my puppy which was a bonus.

Nothing to do with the host at all but another guest was either smoking burning toast or both as at 04.40 the fire alarm went off i thought it was a car alarm until my adult daughter ran in and sed mum get up get the dog the fire alarms going off and i can smell smoke from flat 1 we were 2 floor and 2 flights of stairs up so we ( my 2 daughters) myself and 12 week old puppy grabbed jumpers put shoes on n ran down into the car park not knowing if there was a fire as i smelt burnt toast didnt want to bother the fire brigade if it was burnt toast so we knocked on flat 1 a man in shorts answered quite rudely said yes everythings ok n shut the door no sorry that ive woke you all up at 04.40. Absolutely not the hosts fault but we were so shattered after spending all day and evening in hospital with my mentallly ill sister who had also broke her ankle that we just wanted a good nights sleep before driving back to Cornwall very selfish of the other guest but it couldve happened anywhere out of the hosts control.

"Un bon emplacement, mais un immeuble qui peut facilement être bruyant."

7.0

La situation de l'immeuble est idéale pour pouvoir sortie à pied vers les plages. L'appartement est confortable, avec un chauffage efficace en hivers. Nous avons aussi apprécié la place de parking privative.

L'immeuble est très mal isolé phoniquement. On entend particulièrement bien marcher les occupants de l'appartement supérieur. La salle de bain n'est pas assez bien ventilée, d'où des traces de moisissure. Le coffre pour récupérer les clés est assez mal placé, en particulier en soirée.

"Awesome apartment in an excellent location."

9.0

The Greyfriars apartment was excellent overall. Superb bedrooms with lovely comfortable beds and the living room had a really nice big sofa. Immaculately clean all round with two bathrooms and a great shower. The location was perfect for us — a one-minute walk to the seafront and only about five mins to the town centre. Our hosts were fantastic — the communication excellent. They even organised a sunny day for us.

There were a lot of stairs! That is not so much a complaint about the property as my own fitness! Other than that, I had no complaints at all.

"Relaxing, comfortable, enjoyable"

9.0

Well appointed apartment with everything you need. The apartment is ideally located near to the beach and town centre so you don’t need to use the car. The ability to park at the apartment is an added bonus.

The mirrors are too high
