10/10 Excellent
"Two couples stayed at the property for Broadstairs Folk Week. There is a double room and a room with bunk beds, so we paid a little less for the bunk room, but the beds were absolutely fine — and at 6ft tall, I had no problem with them. The flat is in a **brilliant location, right in the centre of Broadstairs**, and we had no problems during our stay. The owners provide a Nespresso coffee machine and capsules, as well as a very thoughtful welcome pack, which was a nice touch. Just two small suggestions for the owners. The shower cubicle floor can be quite slippery when wet, so a non-slip mat or similar would be useful. I'm perhaps particularly conscious of this because one of our party had a bad fall and broke his leg three years ago. Secondly, given how hot it can get in summer, a couple of fans would be very welcome — thankfully, we had brought our own. Otherwise, **a lovely place in a fantastic location, and we wouldn't hesitate to book again.**"
