In our opinion, the apartment has some outstanding merits and several defects. Our chief disappointment was that the apartment was not as pictured on the website.
The location, by the sea, at a bus stop, and near excellent food stores, is ideal. The view of the sea from the balcony is splendid. The housekeeping staff were efficient in attending to the bedroom, bathrooms, and to the kitchen. The maintenance crew arrived promptly and, at our request, effectively made some repairs to the furniture, the floor lamp, and the kitchen stove.
However, the very sparsely furnished apartment was not as shown on the website: the pictured dining room table, the glass patio table, and the comfortable patio chairs were missing, replaced by less attractive pieces; the living-room rug was gone, rolled up with other junk in a storage area off the kitchen; the coffee table was broken, and, at our request, was replaced by one that was not; the damaged floor-lamp, and the broken arm of the very uncomfortable couch had to be repaired; the main burner on the kitchen stove (adjacent to the charred countertop) never did work, but the maintenance crew did manage to get the stove's other burners to function more reliably. The floors, which we swept every morning, needed a thorough cleaning, which they had not had before we arrived, and did not receive during our six-week stay. Our chief disappointment was that the rather costly apartment was not as pictured on the VRBO website.
