    The shower was very small, causing a puddle of water each time we used it.

    The owners met us on arrival and were very friendly and helpful, giving us information about our stay and the facilities and local attractions. The area was nice and peaceful, and very close to the town centre.

    Sadly, the wifi was terrible! The shower room is small, and as such, unfortunately, I got to know the shower curtain a little too well when showering; the shower itself was great!

    Arrived to a lovely welcome and had a good chat with the very friendly host. I had booked the room, not noticing it was 'pet friendly,' which would have been a disaster, but for the air purifier supplied! The room was clean & tidy and reasonably comfortable; at a bargain price!

    As they had a bathroom with basin in couldnt make out why they had a basin in bedroom. Was a kitchenette for doing your own food so a small fold up table znd chairs would have been better. Otherwise had to sit on end of bed to eat.

    Stay was fine, chsp that met us was very pleasant.

    Bed definitely needs replacing. Lovely rainwater shower installed but cant use it as it floods the bathroom due to shower area very small. Have to use small shower head which was fine but frustrating. Needed cleaning. Bathroom sink had the remnants of someone who had brushed their teeth in it. Generally needs deep clean.

    Great quiet location. Compact and well equipped. Excellent messaging comms from owners.

    As much as I liked the value, the place needed an update. The bathroom is very small and needs some work done. I would recommend a check with an electrician as my son had an electric shock trying to charge his game, and there's a buzzing sound when my phone was charging, I've tried different chargers and plugs but the noise was always there.

    The location was great, close to shops, quiet area, easy to get a bus. Good value of money and the host were very friendly.

    General standard of the place, suppose you only get what one pays for, but I've always before been happy with booking.com.

    It didn't seem up to the standard of booking.com

    Although it's a residential street, it's quite noisy at night with people coming and going...obviously not the hosts' fault, but I suggest bringing ear buds for a good night's sleep. I couldn't get the TV to get a signal, but I had my phone, so could watch Netflix.

    Fabulous location, a short walk to the town and sea front. Michael and Paula were lovely hosts and kept checking if I needed anything and if I was happy. The unit I had was very small but had everything I needed and was lovely and clean. The shower is really tiny, but is an amazing shower with various water functions. The internet signal is really good here and there's a lovely little patio area where you can sit and enjoy the sunshine. I was allowed to bring my little dog, Nelly and she loved it here!

    We arrived at 3:45 for a 3 o'clock check in but our room was not ready, the pictures show 2 different self contained rooms, I think we got the smallest one it was a bedroom a tiny kitchen area that has a portable plug in hob, and a bathroom with a very compact shower that floods onto an already spongy floor, not that comfortable, ok for one or two nights. There is no private parking as states.

    The Host was very nice and friendly, there was washing up liquid and sponges and complimentary hand wash, shampoo, conditioner and body wash, and the room was clean.

    Unfortunately the shower curtain did reach the floor, therefore when showering, water came onto the bathroom floor

    For an one night stay, the accommodation was perfect
