Penthouse with seaview by Costarentals - Ref 08

The shower was either boiling Hot or freezing cold so couldn’t enjoy a shower. A few walls could do with touching up as flaking off the wall. And Had ant problem in terrace bedroom. And bunk bed is very uncomfortable and very noisy.

Unusual 3rd bedroom in converted roof terrace.

Only something small but the lower bunk bed squeeks every time you turn in the bed. The apartment is on a hill so tough walking up it but taxis are easy to get and not too expensive. There is no little shop near by. But there is a Lidl down hill, around 10min walk. There is no shallow end in the pool, so our 6 year old needed arm bands.

We booked this especially for the pool - 2 of our party not able to go in the sea. My booking stated that the pool would be open for our stay, however, on arrival we found a note stuck to the gate saying the pool would be shut until June 8th (our booking was June 6 to 10). We went to use the pool on June 8 to find it still locked and called the agent who said nothing would likely change over the weekend and it might open on Monday (our departure day). June 9th, still shut, another call to agent who said nothing could be done. June 10th, we check out, pool still shut. GUTTED! We ended up paying to go to a pool nearby spending nearly £200 to do so. I asked Booking for a partial refund to cover this but was told 20% is the standard refund when a listed facility is not available. Come on - this was the pool not a saucepan! Booking told me to speak with the owner who referred me back to booking again. The terrace is nice and had loads of potential. . . but very tricky to access up the spiral staircase (good luck getting up there with a tray!) and through one of the bedrooms so we could not use that unless that person was up. That bedroom did not have a mirror (FYI) The door from the bedroom to the terrace cannot be opened past the canopy which has been installed too low for the door height. This was dangerous as we had to try to wedge it past each time to open and close. The lovely sofa is the pic of the terrace is not there. We had a leaky toilet which I reported - the guy came the same day to sort it. I hate leaving reviews like this but facts are facts
