Charles Alexander Short Stay - Derbe House

Everything was great

Check in i think was quiet late 4pm And it could do with a sink in the toilet even if its one that fits over the cistern as as its abit disgusting to think everyone who uses the toilet has used the door handle without washing their hands.

Fantastic house, comfy and very modern

Noisy next door neighbours

The location was great, handy for public transport, with a lovely Italian 50yds away.

One of the double beds needed fixing as it tilted over on our first use, followed by the smoke alarm falling of the ceiling. Somewhere to hang wet coats would have useful.

This house was really very nice. It was in a fantastic location. 5 minutes' walk to the beach was also dog friendly, which is great for us. This house it's self was immaculate, it was so cosy, the beds were fresh and very comfortable. The bathroo. Was beautifully clean and spacious. What can I say? we really did enjoy staying in the house it was lovely, and we will certainly be back again.

This is not really a negative but just a few things t9 consider, such as airfryer for the kitchen. There was no vegetable peeler and also not baking tins such as muffin tins. This is literally the only thing I could point out from our stay.

Lovely clean nice

I wish it was my house

The location was great, very close to the sea front and a small local supermarket. Parking was easy. The house was very stylish and smart. It had everything required for a happy family holiday, so no complaints. Also, we contacted the owners through the e-mail with a query and received a very quick response. Thank you. I'm sure we'll be back!

Nothing really but to mention...the stairs are rather steep and there is only one upstairs toilet. However, we managed fine.

It was clean and dog friendly

The late night noise on the street.

Pros: Excellent situation, very clean and comfortable, super stylish, lovely conservatory looking out over a long garden.

Cons: There were many safety issues which had not been considered. The two flight stairs had a handrail on the first flight, but not the second. The balusters have been replaced with thick glass which should have a handrail on top. The "open" shower has a side screen with completely clear glass. My partially sighted son couldn't see it! The glass should have adhesive decals to make it more visible. The bathroom should have non slip flooring. My partner slipped and fell on his first day, injuring his back, and spent the rest of our week in bed because he couldn't sit or stand. The lovely kitchen has sliding doors leading into the conservatory. This is a great idea, but they are also clear and I walked into them twice thinking they were open! Again safety decals would be a good idea. The lounge is very dark, probably because of the tree outside close to the house. It also smelled strongly of stinky feet for the first few days in our week. I think this might be the UPVC sofa. The bathroom smelled of cigarettes! The drive is quite steep and a safety rail for getting up and down would be useful. The house has a lot of trendy ornaments, perhaps too many.
