Guests appreciate the strategic positioning of the apartments, which allows them to enjoy both the tranquility of the beach and the convenience of urban amenities. The polite and helpful staff further contribute to a welcoming environment, ensuring that needs are promptly met. Whether enjoying the view from a spacious apartment or relaxing by the pool, the setting of the Beach Apartments - GMT is praised as one of the best aspects of the stay, offering a blend of scenic beauty and practical accessibility that is hard to beat.

Beds
Beach Apartments - GMT presents a mix of experiences when it comes to bedding. Positive sentiments highlight the spaciousness and comfort of the beds, with phrases like "great bed" and "comfortable bed" being recurrent. Guests appreciate the clean and good quality bed linens, adding to the overall comfort of the stay. The beds are sometimes described as "big" and "fragrant," enhancing the appeal of a restful night's sleep.

However, not all reviews are glowing. Some guests noted discomfort with mattresses being soft or uncomfortable. There were mentions of double beds being made up of two single beds pushed together, which may not meet every guest's expectation, especially when these arrangements come with noticeable wear on the linens. Additionally, issues such as cigarette smells in rooms and hard sofa beds affected the comfort for a few guests.

Despite these mixed reviews, many find Beach Apartments - GMT a comfortable choice, praising aspects like "super comfortable" beds in their reviews. It's a venue that promises potential for a good night's rest, though future visitors may want to verify details about bed arrangements and room conditions ahead of their stay.

Cleanliness
Beach Apartments - GMT presents a mixed experience when it comes to cleanliness and maintenance, with a notable emphasis on the need for improvements. Positive remarks highlight the overall cleanliness in certain apartments and organized environments, with some guests appreciating the clean bedding and towels. However, the reviews consistently suggest that the cleanliness of the bathrooms needs significant attention, often pointing out dirty floors, showers, and deteriorated facilities. Maintenance issues are prevalent, with reports of broken and stained furniture, malfunctioning items, and an apparent lack of timely upkeeping. Discrepancies like missing basic amenities, such as soap and kitchen supplies, further detract from the guests' comfort. Additionally, mold, dust, and malfunctioning plumbing fixtures contribute to a sense of neglect within the property. Overall, while the property provides some positive attributes, it falls short in several areas that impact the overall guest experience, emphasizing the need for comprehensive cleaning and consistent maintenance efforts.

Despite expectations of access, the advertised Wi-Fi service appears to be inconsistent, prompting some guests to seek assistance from the reception to address these problems. While the ambiance and location of the Beach Apartments are often praised, those planning a stay might want to consider other options for internet connectivity if access during their stay is critical.

The pool's design and surrounding amenities, such as a comfortable solarium and a barbecue area complete with a roof and grill, contribute to its appeal. Users have praised the pool as being amazing, very nice, and among the best features of the accommodation. It's important to note that guests should plan their pool visits around its operational schedule, as it closes at 5 PM and is not available on Mondays.
