I have trouble with stairs so groundfloor was ideal. Booked at short notice in the closed season and everything was great.
Really liked the message on a morning if you needed the housekeeper to come in later. Great idea.

Easy to find, clear instructions regarding keys, etc.. Not a huge amount of things nearby, apart from the nice beach. Perhaps a bit expensive for what it is, but in the summer the easier access to the beach must be a plus.

Very clean room with a lovely shower. The treats left were a nice touch! Easy to find with good clear instructions, easy to get into the property. Felt safe there. A lovely little cafe just down the road (the bouncing bomb), def worth a visit and the locals were very friendly. A short walk to the sea, with a lovely walk along the promenade to Westgate on Sea (took us an hour but we’re not fast walkers!)

Lovely room, well presented and very clean. Great location and secluded. We enjoyed the night we was there, very relaxing. Easy to check in via a key safe. Lots of spaces to park outside on the street, right next to the property.

The best thing about this accomodation is the location, it is very near to the beach and the wonderful Minnis bay Restaurant. The room itself is comfortable enough but as it is below street level, it is a bit dark even with the lights on. The fridge is a nice touch though not big enough to stand up a bottle of wine. Always nice to see tea, coffee, biscuits and little chocs on the welcome tray. The bathroom was clean , however there were a couple of drips (?) on the toilet seat which I cleaned before we could use it. I'm not sure I understand the daily housekeeping as the towels we used and hung up to dry were folded up by housekeeping and the damp towels were put on the downturned bed, leaving a damp patch. I have no problem re-using a towel however one towel was clearly dirty and should really have been changed. the cups we used n the morning were not cleaned, not a problem for us but i'd have thought housekeeping would address this?
Easy and clear access. No major issues. Loads of free parking. Bus stop across the road takes you to Margate or Herne bay in the other direction.

The check-in was easy, good instructions. We didn't see any owners, just entered the property and this is it. Convenient. Room is good, big enough, has everything what you need. But I "met" a lot of spiders. And it was dusty. Kettle, in toilet. Maybe because twin-room isn't much popular and there weren't guests for a long time. But overall it was a nice stay.
