Lovely Two Bedroom Apartment, with private garden!

In Good Area

Bathroom Shower 🚿 Water not Working

Last minute booking due to previous property being unsuitable. Ideally located to get into Torquay

We struggled to get the TV to work, dont think they were connected to the WiFi.

Amazing

Clean and centrally located.

Very small.

Lovely clean basement flat. Nicely decorated with a small sun trap garden. The beds were really comfortable. It was ideal for our visit and communication was excellent with the owners.

Unfortunately the garden view is a block of garages which was a shame. Could also hear the cars going over the humps when in the small bedroom.

The location for Torquay harbour was good, just 20 minutes walk although a bit longer on the way back as up hill! Parking was 30 mins directly outside and then free parking on side road 5 mins walk away so didn't cost anything. The apartment overall was a good size. The bedrooms both had ceiling fans which were very welcome. The apartment had everything we needed pretty much. Great resteraunts in the harbour especially Harbour 21. The bathroom is spacious and functional. The owners were very helpful and communicative. This was cheaper than two hotel rooms for us which is why we decided on this property. The apartment was fairly clean and very tidy. Overall it was a good stay and we enjoyed our time there.

The apartment was quite tired and close to local takeaways so strong food smell. The apartment was reached from the rear of the building and was surrounded by garages and bins from all the other flats and shops so sitting out on the small patio area wasn't really an option for us. One of the beds was slightly on a slant which made sleeping difficult but the sofa was great and so slept on that instead. The bedrooms were a little on the small side as shown in the photos so knew to expect this.

Nothing

Not clean and scruffy

Great access to town. Parking fine on main road even though no allocated space. Hosts were responsive - just a bit nonplussed by the way they "managed" it.

The situation around the back is a bit grotty. We arrived to reggae music blasting out from one of the balconies. Turns out the hosts have complained about the guy multiple times. This was in arvo - thankfully that was it so no worries in evening for us. No windows in the bedroom. Also the two bedrooms don't have a door between them. Apartment is superficially clean. Lack of attention to detail/care. They just need to stay here for a day or so. Pans disgusting, no wine glasses, no cover for bin, wif code on chalkboard incorrect, had to hunt for TV remotes (down side of sofa) etc etc We were unlucky in that soon after we arrived a major leak occurred inside the property. This subsequently took out the electricity (and WiFi). Whilst the hosts were responsive their initial reaction to a severe leak was "is there anything you'd like us to do" 😂 Long story short, they did come and were apologetic...but the tales of woe about Tennant's always stealing things and their issues with the guy with the alsatian two floors above didn't really have anything to do with our complaints. If it wasn't for the leak I suppose that we'd just say this was adequate for a cheap stop over (thankfully all we did) but could not recommend if you want a fresh smelling, place for a longer stay - unless you bring your own frying pans, wine glasses and fabreze.
