Great little unit, great location!

Unit is in an older complex but is well maintained and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Kids loved the toy chest! Host communications are spot on and timely, which is much appreciated. You really can't beat the location if you have kids who want to go to the waterpark!

Great location and amenities

The unit was spacious, clean and well equipped - I was especially impressed with provision, not only of coffee machine, but of enough capsules to last the two of us for 10 days. Also great central location on The Strand. Finally, host Andy communicated with us in a timely and helpful manner from start to finish. Overall, a great stay. Thanks Andy.

The location was super and easy walking distance to everything

The apartment was great although the floors weren’t very clean - found shards of glass near the table - two bedroom were great although we had to sleep one person on the sofa in the living room which was okay except there was no curtains on the windows which meant that person was woken up every morning when the Sun came up
