Guests say
Coastal Haven is a well-regarded apartment in Seahouses, praised for its cleanliness, spaciousness, and prime location. Guests appreciate the proximity to local amenities and the seaside, as well as the comfortable furnishings and well-equipped kitchen. While some minor maintenance issues and teething problems are noted, the overall sentiment is positive, with many guests expressing a desire to return.
The majority of reviews highlight the property's cleanliness, with guests finding it tidy and well-kept. A few comments about stains on carpets suggest room for improvement, but these are exceptions in an otherwise consistent appreciation for the property's cleanliness.
The location is highly praised for its central position in Seahouses, with easy access to shops, restaurants, and the beach. The view of Bamburgh Castle and the convenience of off-street parking add to the appeal, making the location almost ideal for visitors.
Guests find the property comfortable, with good quality bed linen and towels mentioned. However, some guests noted the beds were uncomfortable and the mattresses in need of replacement, which slightly detracts from the overall comfort score.
Facilities are generally well-received, with a well-equipped kitchen and the provision of towels and linen. Some reviews, however, mention maintenance issues such as a broken kettle switch, a non-working wall heater, and Wi-Fi problems, indicating that while facilities are good, there is room for improvement.
While some guests mention welcome packs and 'extra' touches like milk and biscuits, there are not enough consistent references to gifts or thoughtful gestures to accurately score this category. It should be noted that while such amenities are appreciated, they are not guaranteed.
