Good apartment but frightening costs
Lovely location beautiful views clean and tidy all amenities available in the apartment
Hidden costs like last check in fee and damage deposit plus deductions from deposit for things like not emptying the bins surely that is what you pay the cleaner for

Final impression:This place could have been good because of the location and appearance, but the level of service, clean
The positive sides:
•good location
•beautiful view from the window
•visually, the apartment looks nice at first glance
•the beach is only one minute away
•there is a small café nearby (coffee and pastries are average, but the staff there are very nice)
•a small shop nearby
•public transport stop very close as well
❗️❗️❗️PLEASE READ THE BOOKING CONDITIONS CAREFULLY❗️❗️❗️WE DID NOT READ EVERYTHING PROPERLY AND ENDED UP PAYING AN EXTRA €50 FOR LATE CHECK-IN (ARRIVAL AT 10:00 PM) + A €300 DEPOSIT. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU TAKE THIS INTO ACCOUNT BEFORE BOOKING.
Now, the actual review.
The apartment was noticeably smaller in reality than it looked in the photos. The pictures create the impression of much more space, but in person it feels quite compact. It was manageable overall — two bedrooms and a living room — but our expectations were definitely different.
The facilities were another issue. Technically, some things were there, but in practice they were barely usable:
there was a washing machine, but no capsules or detergent
there was a router, but the Wi-Fi did not work (and this was not a temporary issue — even after an hour of trying, it was never fixed)
there was an empty liquid soap dispenser, but no actual soap
there was only one half-empty “3-in-1” bottle (shampoo/body wash), clearly not enough for several guests
It felt like the apartment was prepared just “for appearance” rather than for actual comfortable living.
Hot water runs out very quickly. If you are staying with more than one person, be prepared to wait 15–20 minutes between showers. This is extremely inconvenient, especially after traveling or coming back from the beach.
Cleanliness was disappointing:
pillows, towels, and bed linen were dirty
the apartment was dusty
overall, it felt like cleaning was either very superficial or had not been done properly for a long time
Comfort was also questionable. The apartment felt cold. There is an air conditioner, but it is almost impossible to use because it has a very strong unpleasant smell.
A separate note about the staff.When we arrived, we were welcomed by a very pleasant young man named Pablo — polite, calm, and helpful. He explained everything clearly, and honestly, he was one of the few genuinely positive parts of this stay.

Nice flat
Nice location. Beautiful sea view. Nice flat.
The owner needs to fix a few things. The toilet is not working properly due to a cracked button.
The door to the balcony can’t stay closed when it is windy. The toaster is not working. The Remote to the garage gate is not working properly.

Неймовірний вид з балкону. Через дорогу від пляжу. Одразу біля дому автобусна зупинка, трохи далі трамвайна. Декілька супермаркетів також в 10 хв ходьби від дому. В квартирі майже все для комфортного перебування, від пральної машинки, до усіх елементів посуду та приладів для готування. Також є декілька шезлонгів та дитячих іграшок для пляжу, що було б дуже актуально для літнього пляжного відпочинку.
хотілось би мати декілька капсул для пральної машинки, серветки чи кухонні рушники, запасні пакети для сміття і трохи більше туалетного паперу;) це все продається в магазині, але саме такі дрібниці дають приємний акцент, коли не потрібно самостійно про це турбуватись. Також в квартирі був несправний туалетний бачок, з яким доводилось трохи гратись, щоб вода перестала безкінечно йти. Не працював тостер, фен і душові лійка теж потребують заміни. Менеджер при оформленні і при сплаті депозиту повідомила, що він повернеться на карту протягом 1 тижня. На жаль, фактично це зайняло 3 тижні і після безлічі повідомлень, які частково ігнорувались.

Nice view, good location.
The sheets were dirty, all blankets on the sofa were old. Remote controller from the parking wasn’t working. So we need to to take products from the supermarket by hands. It’s good that staff were friendly and solved the problem, but only next day.
