“Fabulous!”

Reviewed 24 Aug 2019

We have just spent a week here and really loved the apartment, the flat itself is light, airey and huge! Spotlessly clean and in a perfect position. Co op around the corner is great for picking up anything you may need. Everybody we met while out walking our dog was so friendly we just couldn't fault anything! We are already counting down the days until we can return.

Response from the owner In response to this , I as you are aware myself and other owner completely disagree with your description and assertions regarding our holiday let. Just to respond to your points in order mentioned above; You mention that the property is not fit for purpose firstly I’d like to say we had guests in up until 2 days before your arrival and for the past 3 years NOBODY has ever found any of your problems you did, in fact we have 5 ***** reviews. There is a 110cm fully functional radiator in bathroom it is fully working. It is a Victorian building with double glazed windows I simply do not understand how you experienced this. When Leah ( co owner) suggested it might be a good idea if you checked out as you were not happy you yourself on 26/12 insisted you would NOT leave the property you was aderment . You put the phone down on Leah twice and it was only when she said she was going to contact TripAdvisor to see if they could relocate you that you wrote the message below (which for the record we still have on our phones ALL YOUR MESSAGES) You text and said : “The flat is very cosy. We are quite happy okay so don't worry and I will leave a good review. I value all my reviews on my let's. I've just had three 10/10 In a row on booking.com As well as the above you verbally on the phone 2 days after check in said : “ The flat is very comfortable and cosy , where is the nearest supermarket?“. The second bedroom is not in a cellar what a ridiculous thing to state & there certainly is not raising damp. It is true there is a dehumidifier and yes a sign asking if guests could empty when full. This is a preventative measure as the twin bedroom is on the lower ground floor with a WINDOW! I can not be responsible for dog poop on a street. You lead myself and TripAdvisor to think it was in the house which after being spoken to by yourself in the most rudest way you eventually said it was OUTSIDE the property. This is the reason I do not think a refund is justifiable and we will not agree to it. TripAdvisor can look at all facts screen shots from you and our past feedback from guests and resolve this situation . I would appreciate if you PLEASE STOP PHONING MY NUMBERS AS THIS IS NOW IN TRIPADVISOR’S hands. I would also ask that your relative please not leave anymore texts and voice messages. Regards A Opyd
