Very basic but nice and quiet ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Stephen Sep 8, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Ayr stay Scotland an honest review: The apartment was great, Bad bits: showers filled up rather quickly, the owner may want to send someone in to unblock shower and bath plugholes, the bath was dodgy felt like I was going to go through the bottom of it didn't feel very sturdy at all, the second bedroom bed mattress was shocking! needs a new one. Good Bits: the apartment was as in the photo's fantastic views of the bay area, the apartment was very clean, the balcony was a great place to sit out in the evening, the living room was very clean and tidy. Central location even though it was on the beach, shops and restaurants were only a short walk away, sound proofing in the apartment was very good we never herd anyone from next door. ##### Stephen Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 12, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities very good flat will be back again soon my only problem was tv was small could do with updating with smart tv slightly bigger model so i could access my netflix and prime while we were in other than that 10/10 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Dec 30, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I liked that it had ecerything I required for a stay. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Nov 12, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Birthday break Lovely apartment , very comfortable with amazing sea view.
