Elegance at the Lanes-3BD

Good sized rooms and location was central.

Everything was clean apart from finding a lighter on the floor in the living room. As we were travelling with kids, this was a concern.

Great location, spacious appartment, great communication with the host in case of questions.

Appartment smelled a bit like cigarette smoke

Lots of room, very clean, great location and comfy beds. We had a great stay thank you.

Great location and quiet considering how central it is. Good communication with property manager. Well kept and clean.

Sehr gute Lage, ruhige Straße, aber Geschäfte und Pubs in unmittelbarer Nähe. Zwei Bäder, geräumige Schlafzimmer mit ausreichend Stauraum. Einfacher Check-In. Sehr schnelle Reaktion bei Fragen. Geschmackvolle Einrichtung. Gut ausgestattete Küche.

Die Spülmaschine ist in einem sehr schlechten Zustand, ebenso einige Töpfe. Im Kinderzimmer fehlte eine Lampe. Eine Garderobe im Flur wäre nützlich.

We needed to book this at the very last minute having been woefully let down by booking.com and another accommodation. We called the owner who immediately and swiftly helped my family with 5 children gain quick access. He even offered to drive and meet us to help us get in quickly.

Nothing!

The location was great and the size of the flat was good. The kitchen and bathroom worked fine and everything was properly clean, except for the sofas. The host replied to most of our needs and the cleaning staff was incredibly lovely and did a great job. The street was pretty quiet compared to how close we are to the buzzing centre and just a really short walk away from the train station. The best parts of Brighton are all in short walking distance, even though we were traveling with three young children!

The flat is a bit outdated compared to the photos. It either needs a refreshing or update the photos. I think the cleaning company is doing a good job with everyday cleaning but the owner needs to freshen the place up. I had to unclog the dishwasher, which was filthy as the previous guests had not used it properly. I also had to clean the washing machine because it had a lot of mould inside. I even had to clean the air filter in the hairdryer because it was clogged with dust. The cutlery wasn't very clean, probably because the washing machine isnt working properly or people didn't have enough dishwasher tablets. This would have been easier if we had gotten things like a washing cloth and cleaning spray, we asked for it once but didn't get it so we just managed with wet wipes. The sofas need a proper stain cleaning and the master bed is broken. And it would have been nice to have shelves or something to place clothes on inside the wardrobes. For some reason there are A LOT of pots and pans, compared to the rest of the stock. But most of them are either ruined and/or dirty. I'd recommend taking away the ruined ones so it's easier to access and keep the good ones clean. I think maybe this apartment was once in a higher standard but hasn't been refreshed and cared for in a while. It wouldn't take a lot of work to refresh it so that it can become great. But it was definitely good for this price, and wouldn't have been any let down if the photos wouldn't have raised our hopes this much. The location is amazing and the neighborhood feels fine. We had a good time there and would definitely recommend it to other people. But if the owner will do a bit of fixing up, I believe it can become a real gem 💎 Thank you
