  Lovely apartment, clean, comfortable and good location.

  I would have given it 5 stars but the situation re parking needs urgent addressing so I'm onky giving 3 in the hope it will help get that sorted. When we booked the adjacent pay and display car park (owned by the Harbour Authority, who also own this apartment and the others in the complex) was advertised as costing around £5 or £6 for 24 hours. We have previously used the car park when visiting Caernarvon and budgeted accordingly. However on arrival we found the car park now costs more than triple that expected cost - almost 4 times that actually. Anyone booking until this issue is sorted should bear in mind that to park in the car park daily could add almost £150 to the price of the weeks rental. There are other parking options a reasonably short walk away but we found that quite inconvenient. Really there needs to be a parking permit included in the rental cost - owners should either up the price of rental and include a parking permit or declare this hidden cost. Overall the apartment is lovely but it is very overpriced when you factor in the extortionate parking costs. The Restaurant in the complex, La Marina was really good. We thoroughly enjoyed eating there and definitely recommend. It was very quiet most nights, probably the car park pricing is having an effect there too. The caretaker at the complex was very helpful. Told us all we needed to know, a very nice man. As other reviews have stated there is no information about how to use the appliances in the apartment. We worked it out OK, buy clearly previous residents hadn't as the dishwasher was clogged up having had the detergent tablet forced into the rinse aid compartment so maybe placing some information about how to operate things will help them last longer! Would we return? Yes - if parking issue is addressed, otherwise there are better options that are more luxurious and cost less.

  This is the worst property we have stayed in over the 8 years of using sykes.

  Be prepared to take cleaning clothes,loo roll,washing up liquid and mop as the owners don't provide them. The hoover wasn't emptied and the steam cleaner and type of long handle duster thing was dirty and disgusting so had to go out and buy cleaning items.No surfaces in living room,bedroom have been dusted in weeks in fact this place wants a deep clean especially in corners of rooms where dirt and debris collected. In the bedroom there was a disgusting damp stained dog bed which needs to go in bin. Cobwebs with spiders in all rooms and very musky damp smell about the place. A lovely welcome pack of wine,cheese, butter,bread and milk was left but I think that money would have been better spent on starter pack of 1 loo roll as there was none, cleaning clothes and wash liquid. There isn't even a frying pan or oven trays to cook anything on. There was a roasting tray so we did everything on that. This apartment is situated in a lovely place and great for town and beach and accessible to great North wales days out. Also why is the apartment above have its doorbell connected to this apartment....very annoying and loud. We spent 3 days speaking and emailing photos to sykes who did absolutely nothing except contact owners who offered a reclean which I refused as we didn't want anyone in there with all our possessions and this should be clean b4 we got there. Owners said no compensation which we never asked for anyway. We won't be back. Very disappointed with lack of care from owners and sykes.

  Chosen because of location to Welsh Highland Railway & stand alone shower.

  Also walking distance to local Tesco for supplies & town centre. No hot water on arrival (we arrived late evening). Was eventually sorted out next day but not without me having to chase up Skye on (only) one phone number available. Previous occupiers had switched boiler off as per instructions in flat accommodation. Service man told us to keep it on (??). Spent first one hour and next day 1 hour cleaning (Dyson in flat smelt disgusting when used so had to open up all doors! & stopped using it). On leaving we explained to cleaner, who we met perchance. She knew aoubt Dyson & showed us her own hoover she uses! TV wouldn't work - so rebooted. Remote slow so bought replacement batteries. Clock on kitchen wall stopped so bought new batteries. Extractor fan in shower filthy & hazard - blowing out more bacteria than extracting! Fitted bedsheet too small for bed & kept coming off- so bought new flat bedsheet extra large. No blankets & cold at night so bought some cheap blankets. Sofa was very uncomfortable - lean back to watch super large tv. Couldn't use coffee table to put drinks on, as table top moves(!) leading to potential spills. Kitchen worktop space was very limited. V.difficult to even organise microwave meals. Dinner table was at least functional. No luggage racks & indeed no small tables, sideboards, no shelves in bathroom to put our toiletries & bags etc. Living off floor for a week! Was glad to leave.

  Lovely place, everything you need for a short or longer break.

  Nice welcome pack. Well equipped but an iron and and a hairdryer would be great to add. Fantastic well maintained patio and a garden. Few downsides. As apart of a bigger property we had the ground floor and further two floors were occupied by other people. You could hear every noise especially the little boy running up and down from 7:30 every morning. Not ideal if you come to catch up with a sleep. The parking space on the back where our entrance was I thought was just for us, but our neighbours had two cars so they parked one on the front and the other in our space. That was causing problem getting to and from the car as the space wasn't quite big enough for two cars. Confusion with the waste collection. The rubbish has been cancelled every three weeks. We didn't know if that was the right week. The bin was full. We took it down the hill to the main road (quite a journey) just to find out that the general wast was collected last week, so we had to bring the full bin back. Visitors should be given the exact dates when the collection is actually happening. Overall our dogs and we had a lovely time.

  Excellent ground floor property, very clean and tidy with everythng needed.

  No noise came through from other flats. Nicely situated for Caernarfon attractions, all within easy walking distance. Ideal also for setting off to places further afield. Road outside not busy or too noisy most of the time. Couple of very minor points whch did not affect my break: The TV refused to come on at first and there were no instructions. The information booklet mentions a Samsung TV but it is a Logik. Problem solved by unplugging and leaving off for a whle. Worked first time when plugged back in and everytime afterwards. Also good wi-fi throughout, good enough to watch football on Laptop in HD. The road was generally quiet but occasionally a car with a loud exhaust would speed past in the early hours. No great problem to me. A kitchen waste caddy was mentioned in the information but I could not find one. Anyyway, apart from such very minor things, I reall enjoyed myself, Thank you very much.
