Stayed in a 2 bed first floor apartment beginning of November at back of complex with hubby, daughter and Granddaughter. Friend had a 1 bed ground floor one nearer pool. Apartment was extremely hot and stuffy. No fan or a/c. Too noisy to keep the windows open at night, mainly due to the other guests and in particular, 1 family below us. Beds were hard and memory foam pillow was like granite so didn’t get a great deal of sleep all week. Clean, modern apartment. Long, narrow balcony so had to sit in a row like being at a bus stop. Only given 3 patio chairs so had to use a kitchen stool if we all wanted to sit outside but view was of apartment block in front so nothing really to look at. Patio door had dropped so hard to open and close. Outside lights both front and back didn’t work. Washing up liquid, scourer, cloth, shower gel and decent hairdryer all provided which was great but only 1 tiny bar of soap for 4 of us for a week and t towel filthy and soaking wet by end of week. Small teacups only so bought mugs from the shop for hot drinks. No storage in the bathroom apart from 1 shelf under the sink and no shelf or dressing table in the bedrooms so had to balance everything around the edge of the sink or on the toilet lid when doing hair and makeup. BBC1, ITV and C4 on TV. Decent WiFi with 4 device connections. Pool towels available for hire for a refundable 5e each but didn’t get refunded for ours as reception was closed when we left late on a very hot afternoon. Lockers available for luggage and a courtesy room with shower/toilet for late checkout but there were 3 families all trying to use it at once as there was no booking facility. Location was fantastic, 1 street behind main ***** all on the flat. Have stayed many times in many places over the years in PDC and paid the same price for better, more comfortable accommodation so although there were good points and I have been really picky listing all the little ******* and problems we found, due to the noise, (our friend near the pool bar had it much worse than we did) and unfavourable comparison to some of the other places we’ve previously stayed, we would not return.
