Great location and well presented. Alex was so helpful and the welcome tray was lovely.
The only negative was it smelt of dogs and a bit musty , especially in the bedroom . I think the sofa could do with a deep clean and the curtains.

The shower was absolutely amazing!! The welcome pack was lovely, a couple of beers, some milk and some nibbles were really appreciated after a long journey!
We found the property to be rather cold as the ceilings were high. Two heaters were supplied which helped so they were appreciated.

The shower was amazing. An absolute treat. Location good too and the hosts very helpful. Lovely size.
Fire alarm is very temperamental. But host sorted that really quickly.

Brilliant Location - Ideal for walking to the beach. It is about 15-20 minutes. Asda is just down the road so you have somewhere to get any supplies you may need during your stay. There are a lot of accessories that can be used. This was our 2nd visit to the apartment and unfortunately our last - see comments below. I would recommend that people go to Barry but after my run in with the host maybe not stay here. I do not want anyone to have the same experience as me.
It was nice to have somewhere to come back and chill out and watch TV after a long day at the beach, chuck something in the oven and just relax. However, I wouldn't really say that this is a positive to this particular apartment as this can be done anywhere really. I guess even if you were in a hotel or hostel you would be able to relax. It is not where you stay but what you make of it.
I love Barry and despite being told negative comments about the place it is definitely somewhere I would visit more regularly. I will not be staying here, maybe a hostel is more suitable and would provide a better score??
2nd stay here so this host has had a lot of money in the last 6 months. I said I would stay again and recommend it - I now strongly retract that statement. My initial score was 7 which irked the owner and caused him to bombard me with messages about it. Despite me being pleasant and polite in my feedback I was not completely honest in my first submission. The owner agreed that due to my feedback it was best I didn't stay again? Whatever happened to the customer is always right or trying to make amends? Surely as a business owner you do not tell your guests not to rebook.
I do not have enough room to explain the whole situation correctly. Just know that I gave the property a 7 with the only niggly point being dust. Until the host practically harassed me to the point I had to block him. This is my honest review now!
The host!!!
I ran out of room to complete a full review of the apartment and who owns it
The host did not like my feedback stating that because my previous mark was a 7 it was as bad as a hostel. Not sure what hostels you are staying at that you would mark them a 7?? Please all be wary of booking and leaving anything negative. Host does not like it and instead of accepting that everyone is entitled to their opinion he becomes quite bullish and despite requests not to text he continued which resulted in me blocking him.
This is such a shame as the apartment isn't that bad, but I do have a few pointers for improvement:
It is basic and could do with some modernisation
We experienced a lot of dust in the bedroom - it wasn't dust that had accumulated over a few days. It was thick and clumpy and all over the frame and under the bed
The mirror was dirty and looked like someone had 'squirted' liquid over it
There was a bike left in the hallway - the apartment is quite small and so are the hallways so this was a potential hazard
Two showers in the cubicle but only one works - remove one?
Cabinet in the bathroom is not really safe - potential health and safety hazard
Have wooden slats to put on the floor in the shower, wouldn't recommend as not very safe either
Place just felt this visit like it needed a good clean
£25.00 for a log fire I booked by mistake - I did express this to the owner - no offer to refund - just left us a bag of marshmallows to toast - they would have cost £2.99 from B&M . This was a complete rip off.. £25.00 for a bit of kindling, some fire lighters, wood and 'free' marshmallows..
The host has left a sour taste in my mouth.. just be careful of staying here and leaving negative feedback. If it is anything lower than a 9 or a 10 I get the feeling it irks the host. Like I stated if you are in this business you have to take the rough with the smooth. This second submission is now my honest feedback.
