Vivendos - TR16 - Nogalera

The apartment is in an excellent location. It was very hot when we were there and we appreciated very much the air conditioning system which worked extremely well and kept a perfect temperature day and night. We had the windows closed, so were not bothered by street noise in the bedrooms. However, it was noticeable in the living areas, so might be a problem if anyone was sleeping on the sofa. We also appreciated the space which allowed us (2 couples) to come and go as we pleased and not get under each other's feet. It was especially good to have 2 bathrooms in this respect. The flat gives access to both sets of swimming pools across the road. Each person needs a separate fob to enter as the fob only gives one-time access to the pool area. The second pool area was much nicer with a handy bar/snack bar onsite.

We found the key system rather bothersome. The agents were very responsive, and gave us an extra set of keys. But the system which otherwise requires a mobile phone and internet connection was not always reliable and near the end of our stay stopped working altogether. As it required internet, we were always obliged to arrange keys between us in any case (one of our group had visual problems and could not use the online system). Frankly a door code or several sets of keys would have been much easier. The apartment is great, but is starting to show its age, especially on the balcony. This is smaller than might appear in the pictures, so in the end, we did not really use it. We also had a water cut when we were there. Obviously, not the fault of the owners/agents, but we were left to our own devices for around 12 hours with no toilets or washing. The 3rd bedroom is indeed rather small as others have written. Luckily we didn't need it, so it served as a place to store suitcases, giving us more room elsewhere. Small thing, but we thought having plastic wine glasses rather unnecessary. We understood that they can get broken, but not really justified by the price we were paying for the apartment. It would have been helpful to have some more detailed instructions on access to the swimming pools.

Super locatie. Overal dichtbij en geen last van de herrie

Lägenheten var utmärkt, fräsch, snygg, välutrustad. Fantastisk utsikt! Jättebra.

Systemet för att ta sig in på pool området var så knasigt, tagg systemet som krävde att man fick läsa av tagg in på området, och även ut från området. Fyra personer och två taggar, kaos utbröt hela tiden när personen varken tog sin in eller ut , för att systemet var så komplicerat. Ingen instruktion fanns i lägenheten på hur detta system fungerade, hade vi inte haft släkt som bodde på området hade vi aldrig förstått det.

Location was good for us as it was across the roads from bars and restaurants. Close to the train station too.

Two out if the three bedrooms were really small. I mean, very small and my head was under the window. Very slim single beds and the other was a small double squeezed up against the wall. The windows in the bedrooms would benefit from a replacement as they were single glazed and let in noise as well as cold (it was a winter break) and chilly at night. I the front door needs replacing. It’s outdated compared with the rest of the blocks doors. It didn’t feel secure. Also, as the sun shines through the windows on the balcony, it’s so strong that a blind would help prevent us from putting sunglasses on while eating breakfast.
