Family visiting us in Maidstone so decided to have a couple of days at the coast. Apartment was as described though we hadn’t realised there would be a steep flight of stairs and finding parking space could be a bit of a problem. Overall we enjoyed a pleasant few days.

Dirty and tired
The property wasn’t well cleaned. There was a thick layer of dust coating surfaces and some areas had dead flies and other debris. The dishwasher had old food in the bottom. Everywhere looks tired and in need of painting, chipped paint and scuffed everywhere. It smelt musty on arrival. Location is great, shower is good and the property is really well equipped.Just needs updating and cleaning. Also couldnt get a response when I fed back about the cleaning issues.
