Mrs Samantha Handley
Lovely flat, well situated and equiped Cleaned well. Additionals like DVDs, books, games & beach equipment are a lovely bonus to make the stay more ‘home from home’ We would definitely come again. a few things in the flat that need attention: 1. ensuite toilet makes on odd noise after being flushed 2. Lamp in small bedroom turns on and off without being touched 3. shaving lamp in main bathroom turns itself on and off 4. cushions in living room need a wash, they are a bit stained 5. washing machine door doesn't line up well and takes a bit of fiddling to close 6. The hoover smells very bad when turned on 7. Kitchen knives are blunt & there is no knife sharpener 8. Instruction’s for washing machine not in folder 9. holes in blind in big bedroom 10. When removing bedsheets we noticed the bed pillows & mattresses toppers were stained and need washing 11. Wifi was mostly none existent and completely unreliable. Didn’t seem to be located in the flat We did not use the toaster or hon so cannot comment on those. The only thing we found would of been useful to have until you could get to a shop would be kitchen roll and anti-bac spray. Everything else was there.

A very clean, comfortable and well equipped apartment. The view was just as advertised in the information. The town, beach and restaurants were a short walk from the apartment, but down a steep hill. The location was perfect for visiting the local sites of interest. A truly enjoyable stay at Penlu.
