Really comfortable beds and living room, nice shower, and great views of the harbor. Very quiet at night. Easy parking and simple check in.
Kitchen was a bit under equipped. No corkscrew, really cheap utensils, also an odd selection of bowls. You had your choice between REALLY large or REALLY small bowls. Eating cereal for breakfast you didn't really find a right sized bowl. It's a bit further from commercial street than we'd prefer but the views made up for it

We booked the apartment for 3 days although we ended up not staying (through no fault of the owners). However, the check in process was (in my opinion) excessively legalistic. I had to return a signed copy of a multi-page rental agreement; although there didn't seem to anything unreasonable in the agreement I don't think I've ever had to sign one for a short stay like this before. I also had to complete an on-line questionnaire that required irrelevant personal information; my sex, date of birth, nationality and address, which I avoid giving out when I'm away as I don't want to advertise that my house is empty to burglars. The owners claim their insurers require this information, in which case I recommend they change their insurers. The whole experience left an unpleasant impression and I wondered what other intrusive requirements might have caught me out had we actually stayed. I would not rent from them again.
