Royal Lea Apartmens

View to sea. Comfortable bed

Bathroom could have been cleaner

the Location was good and close to the beach

The flat was very small and didn't look like the pictures. Air conditioner was very old and noisy

The apartment was clean and dry with good working hot water and split units contrary to previous reviews in September of 2022. The price was comparable to hotels like "the seasons" nearby that are rated only at 3.7. I found this apartment to be superb and within very close walking distance to the beaches and also relatively quiet, which is surprising due to light sound proofing in the walls. The shower was excellent, as was a healthy supply of toilet paper. This may seem like a small problem, but it is always nice not to have to go to the store as soon as you get there. The host was also very on top of things. This apartment had a drying rack and towels galore. Very comfortable beds and a large fridge and very well stocked kitchen complete with pepper and even the large pots and a good selection of knives for chopping. The nearby restaurant scene is superb even before you get to the Netanya Leonardo plaza. Gluten-free or vegan dining is available in mass on limited menus. The washer here works very well as well. Parking is fine and public on the street even though becah goers fill the curb by early afternoon. Suggest parking and planning to stay parked for the day. Returning after 5 pm. is not a problem as beachgoers leave. The birds outside sing, and this can be heard from within. The size of the apartment allows for two bedrooms and a dining table with a full two couch living room. Extra bedding and a matrass exist for sleeping up to 6 comfortably. The WIFI is very good.

The couch could use a good deep cleaning on the leather. The towel rack in the bathroom needs backing within the wal as it has been torn loose several times. But all in all, this apartment is well above average and well worth the value. Excellent host. I have no complaints. Also, suggest a separate from host wifi connection as this wifi slows down in the evening. But not enough to worry about. The wifi is actually much better than most bookings.

The apartment is very clean and the host was very nice. We had towels and spare towels just in case, some shampoo, toilet paper, some tea.

The kettle was dirty.

Quiet location close to the beach, about 20 minutes walk to the centre of town. Host was very responsive and answered any questions immediately and was very helpful.

It is a studio flat - essentially one large room with a sleeping area, large lounge area, dining table, kitchen and a separate shower room. Its fairly basic, but with everything that you might need - a good fridge, effective air con, good wi fi, TV, cooking facility etc. The hosts communicate really well too. The only downside is that the place felt tired - it needed some TLC to be the place that it promises to be and it wouldn't be hard to get it back to its former glory. Parts of the shower were mouldy and really grubby, the toilet seat was cracked, the bed linen was obviously old as half of the buttons to seal the duvet were broken or missing, there was a stain on a pillowcase and bits like that. Really all little things which would be easy to put right and which make a difference in turning a place from fair/ good into great.

NOT INCLUDED

NOTHING

it’s nothing like the pictures. They’re false.

The listing is false and misleading. I’m attaching a true photo of what the owner calls an “ocean view”. 2. The photos falsely portray a clean a modern place. it is, in fact worn and depressing. 3. the entire place smells of food garbage. 4. There is another room off the main apartment entrance, occupied by someone we don’t know.
