2 BDR Nitza appartment with balkony

A cute apartment with two bedrooms on a quiet street, in an excellent location with easy access down to the beach. The sea view from the apartment is lovely. Communication with the owners was excellent. We really enjoyed staying there and didn’t lack anything.

מיקום. הדירה עצמה מסודרת עם כל מה שצריך נקיה יש מקרר גדול מזגן בכל חדר . אין ספק שנחזור שוב. הים קרוב מאוד לדירה . כמו כן יש חניה פרטית . מומלץ בחום

The view, the sea, comfy living room, 2 bathroms

Shower installation was very bad, all shower hoses were brocken, both shower heads were clogged with calcium. Kitchen pots were a bit durty, there was a strong wind and it blew through closed windows, the windows were extremely dirty

Location was fine; just 15 mins walk from Netanya square, 8 mins from beach. Balcony just about OK for 2 , but small for 3 people; the view was OK but hardly inspiring. Overall, though, reasonable value for money compared to the extortionate cost of hotel rooms.

The apartment needs a make-over. Flaking paint from the balcony walls/ceiling and from the door frame of the master bedroom should have been removed and made-good. It lacked character - eg.the bare walls would benefit from the addition of a few colourful pictures/paintings. The control valve for the shower in the master bedroom's en-suite was incredibly stiff and very difficult to adjust. The host/agent Yelena waited several days before responding to our request for some minor, inexpensive items; eg.water jug, more cutlery, a floor pan (we had a brush but only a broken pan), a plug for the bath, instructions for the TV and other facilities, washing pods for the washing machine, a privacy curtain for the window between the master bedroom and the balcony. Some, but not all, of these items were supplied on the 6th of our 9-day stay. But our complaint about the dirty toilet seat, and about the waste-water from the bath flooding back up onto the floor went unheeded; as did our request for cleaning and change of bed-sheets, which did not happen. All of these items could be/have-been remedied for little cost but would enhance the apartment enormously. I am making these comments from our experience of owning/letting apartments in Israel, Cyprus, France, Spain and the UK.
