Retro Waves Retreat – A Stylish and Vibrant Getaway in Central Brighton

Position was good.

Hadn’t realised that the two flights of spiral stairs to the main bedroom would be so hard for me to navigate. Granted, there are rails but for anyone with sight/mobility issues it would be hard going. Very noisy at night which we expected but there were a lot of groups congregating outside smoking at all times. Again kind of expected this but not on that scale. We had no iron or tea towel and asked for these which turned into an Ealing comedy sketch. What a fiasco! On our last night my daughter in the downstairs bedroom was woken by someone trying the door and shining a light into her window. Seems they were trying to access the property across the lane but the code wasn’t working. We struggled to access our place. There are 2 doors (didn’t know that) and the first you come across doesn’t open. You have to go round the corner and enter via the door behind the railings. We didn’t use any of the kitchen appliances. The kettle really needs a good descaling. We bought takeaways. If you like the hippy vibe of place then I’m sure you’ll like it.

Quirky, comfy, clean with some lovely little extra touches. Loved it being on 3 levels as really suited our needs. Couldn't wish for a better location, helpful owner/agent.

Front door lock a bit sticky.

The property is an iconic alleyway. Really wonderful place.. central for everything, immaculate inside .. and very quirky

Getting into it ! It’s say in information given the lock box for the keys is at the property.. this is not accurate. The lock box is attached to the restaurant front at the corner of the street .

Die Lage war super. Darauf, dass es ein bisschen lauter war, hatten wir uns eingestellt. Die Wohnung ist ansprechend eingerichtet

Das Türschloss hat gehakt und war vielleicht eingerostet. Vermutlich hätte ein bisschen WD-40 geholfen. Am zweiten Tag sind wir fast nicht reingekommen. Es gab keine Unterstützung vor Ort, lediglich per Telefon. Zum Glück ist die Tür dann doch irgendwann wieder aufgegangen.
