Worst holiday rental experience ever.

Location and view.

A mismatched bathroom suite, rusty radiator, mold on wall. No freezer facilities. Years of dust and fluff on light fittings. Filthy, dog hair/sand everywhere. Spilled drinks under couch. Sofa bed falling apart. Draughty patio doors. Broken furniture held together with sellotape?? Bad tile finish in Kitchen. Many of these issues being reported to them years ago?? We lost 3hrs of Saturday due to having to pack, move and unpack again. Moved to 57 Churchill tower which obviously hadn't even been checked if it was fit for habitation even though there was a Donnini member of staff in the vicinity when we arrived. It had a really strong smell of stale cigarette smoke. Tobacco/ash on furniture. Holes in wall held together with sellotape. Litter under beds, blood stained mattress. All soft furnishings in living room had marks & stains. Filthy windows, cobwebs. Remnants from past tenants in wardrobes, on kitchen cupboards and in hallway cupboard. Dirty grout in bathroom. Dirty/broken glasses. Sticky floors. Dirty, threadbare living room rug. Literally a burst couch in living room. Clanging parking garage door below reverberating right through the flat regularly. We were woken at 6am by it this morning! 11 emails and over 100 photos later and all we get are paltry excuses and offered £40 off our NEXT 'Luxury' Donnini stay by a nameless employee who kept banging on about Donini's high standards! Making a complaint to booking.com as this wasn't by any means a cheap break. This was supposed to be a treat for the last few days of bereavement leave so needless to say we will never book another Donnini managed property.

I was attending to some difficult business while staying in Ayr. another time I would hopefully be able to enjoy the sur

simple attractive magnificent sunsets over the sea

bit of a carry on to get the keys out of a rather dirty and unattractive bin store. salt and pepper would have been nice

Another great stay at the Donnini apartments!

The view right out to sea is amazing. There is a balcony to sit at and a lift to take you to all floors, which was essential for me. The girl in the office, Heather was so lovely. She checked twice in the 5 days I was there, to make sure everything was ok and was kind enough to sort out an extra night stay for me at a great price. This is the 2nd Donnini apartment I have stayed in and I can highly recommend them.

Well, sofa in sitting room is not comfortable at all. Only other small thing I can think of is, there was no baking trays for the oven, that's it.

Fantastic location , cosy apartment but a bit pricey

Serviced apartment - first time met no one during the stay but worked efficiently

Following could be provided: 1. Door Closers 2. Clear instructions to operate different gadgets 3. Broken lid of the kitchen dustbin could be repaired

Family holiday

It is hard to find anything positive to say about this accommodation. Probably the worst I stayed in All rooms in that apartment need a good clean There was black marks on all walls don't know when it was last painted The bathroom was disgusting black mould all over the tiles. The shower dolls disgustedly dirty ceiling all stained First night and most of the next day no hot water This property is not suitable for children I start at too many hazards I am disappointed in booking.com because I did trust you

There was absolutely nothing I liked about that apartment I would definitely not recommend it to anybody

not what I expected for the money paid.

good location, nice view, good sized bedrooms. organisation for keys, pre-call checks etc all good.

the decor was tired. bathroom in particular was really not up to scratch, rusting radiator, mould etc on tiles, just looks tired and dated and needs some proper TLC. for the price we paid, just not what I expected at all

Location was great but cleanliness was not as we expected.

The location was great and the host was contactable.

The place was not that clean. Some of the kitchen utensils, pots and glasses were not clean either which was disappointing. We also had a letter from the neighbour downstairs about us walking around upstairs and making too much noise even though we were not? The login for the TV told us their were too many people in the network and wouldn’t let us watch.

A good place for kids.

Well equipped and location allowed us to get food easily

Neighbour below the apartment who subjected me to aggressive abuse at the door of the flat 5 minutes after arriving. Felt threatened and resulted in disturbed night with children tiptoeing around the apartment and stayed out as much as possible. Outside the hosts control but needs addressed. I would not stay in this apartment again but would stay with domini

Perfect Peace and Relaxation.

The Original Donini Apartment is ideally located for the beach which is directly across the road, therefore also providing a fabulous panoramic view of the coast line. We had a small balcony with table and chairs allowing us to sip wine and just chill watching the waves role in, and world go by! The building and surrounding area was clean, and it felt safe when I returned to the flat alone at night. The apartment is a short walk from the town centre where you can have a meal, have a drink or replenish your stocks. We also had an excellent Thai massage done in a wee place about 5-10mins from the flat. For those with children the flat has the option of locking the exterior door top and bottom to prevent excited or curious children leaving without an adult. There is a large playpark along the road which I tried out purely in the interests of research and can recommend, for big kids and small! Pirate Pete's is an indoor play area which I have not tried out but which I hear is good fun, and of course there is the beach.

There really wasn't anything to dislike about the Original Donini apartment or Ayr.

Nice sea view but could be cleaner

Good location, nice sea view. Enough space for sitting and eating. Relatively clean with exception of bathroom shower area.

Bathroom tiles had a lot of black mildew on the walls which I had to scrub and clean with bleach. Two lightbulbs were busted, but were eventually replaced when we were out. Could also do with some hooks on the doors. One window could not be fully closed. Could also do with more hangers. No fish slice / spatula in kitchen.

Inspite of the negatives mentioned, we did enjoy our stay and would return.

Apartment was very clean and comfortable. The location was really good with fantastic sea views from the balcony, and only 10 mins walk to town centre. Check in and check out was very straight forward.

A floor rug in the main living area was a tripping hazard because it curled up at the ends. We had to temporarily remove it. We felt that the availabilty of some occasional tables would have been beneficial, since there was no where, other than on the floor, to place coffee/tea cups whilst relaxing in the living area. Despite going out of our way to minimise noise in the apartment by removing outdoor shoes, avoiding dragging furniture around, and not playing loud music, we were dismayed, after a couple of days, to find a note through the door from the downstairs neighbour complaining about noise because of the laminate flooring. It did put a dampener on things for us. We reported all of the foregoing to the Donnini team at the time.
