Jo the manager was extremely helpful at Austens Apartments after I had had an awful experience with another property where the owner was uncontactable and no access, and spent 2 hours on phone to Booking.com to find an alternative.
Only slight issue was there was no hairdryer, and I could not find a single shope that sold one, so i looked like Crystal Tips for the holiday.

The apartment had the wow factor when you walked in to an open plan living room and kitchen. All rooms were spacious furnished with great quality furniture
Everything was great

Spacious
Modern look
Quality appliances
Small shower cubicles and some TLC are required around fixing tiles, etc, as this is advertised as being luxury.
No smart TV and for a luxury apartment, this should be fairly standard and the size of the TVs to match the size of the living space.
Carpets could do with a deep, clean
Doors handles on the entrance to the apartment loose. Could do with a modern touch.
Maybe invest better mesh wifi for better coverage as there are black spots around the apartment.
Checkout times should be specified for different seasons as I was advised to checkout at 10 am, and in my booking, it stated 11am. After raising this query, I was told I could check out at 11 am.
Sofas worm out.
Mattress was a little u comfortable but bearable.

The Apartment is in an great location, just a few minutes walk to the beach.
We booked a apartment 6 which came with parking.
The aprt was clean, spacious and gad everything we needed for a comfortable stay! Bathroom was a little on the small side but the shower was spacious and lovely to use.
The double room was a good size, the twin room was a little small but sufficient, the living room was lovely and big , my kids loved the open plan style and we thoroughly enjoyed out stay at the apartment.😁
Apartment 6 -
1. the front door would have made us feel safer and comfortable if there was a double lock on the inside, 2. the door draft cover at the bottom was a little broken on one side.
3. we didnt use the bins provided in the flat and used the black bin bag for all our rubbish ( the kitchen bin was quite dirty on the outside and looked like it hadnt been cleaned by the previous users!)
(not sure who was supposed to clean it but it was not clean when we arrived! )
4. Just a little suggestion- the bathroom need a little TLC- some re-siliconing around the shower base would have felt cleaner 🙂
5. We are a family of 5 so we needed to use the sofabed aswell, the sofa was really easy to pull out and use, we found the duvet and pillows in the double room wardrobe, the downside was the covers had not been changed and smelled! My son had to use on the first night because it was very late to have anything done about it, i did message the contacts i had (Jo and Jill) they were great and quick to respond!!
The next morning by 10am the cleaner/agents came and changed the bedding for the sofa bed! I was really impressed by the quick action. Thank you

Great location, apartments fully furnished and was very impressed with the kitchenette and showers.
Parking was a bit tricky, would have been great if we could have had 3 car parking slots for 3 apartments but otherwise ideal

Stayed in apartment no 2
Great location with parking.
Spacious and comfortable apartment.
Well-stocked cutlery, plates.
Tea, coffee, biscuits welcome pack a nice touch.
Safe gated outdoor patio was ideal for the puppy.
Easy access, great communication.
Only a couple of minor things
An indoor front door mat especially on wet days would be good
Also, a curtain/net to the archway of the shared bedroom would be better to add a level of privacy.
An outdoor bench/seating. There is so much potential for the patio, and some garden touches as noticed this is at the front of the property but not back.

Loved the location and the general comfort of the apartment. Beds were comfy and show was fantastic. Sofa was also comfy and plenty of room to eat and prepare food. Bonus was an unexpectedly large fridge and freezer - which was fantastic for self catering. Really good value for money, meant that we could get away for break with our teens and not feel cramped during the times when we just fancied relaxing rather than going out. TV and DVD player also great and a controllable thermostat. Daughter loved that there was a dressing table in their room. Second bedroom was spacious enough but not enough room for hanging space. Despite being an attic apartment there was plenty of light coming in. Close to a bakers, take-aways and a small shop, walking distance to main shopping and seafront, on a couple of bus routes and walking distance (12 mins) to train station, and swimming pool (6 mins). Tiny lift to 3rd floor, but was great for luggage and shopping...less grumbling from the teens because they didn't have to carry their bags up 3 flights!!
Very small niggles - somewhere to hang wet coats would have made a lot of difference, just coat hooks in the hall would have been great, or maybe on the wall by the cleaning cupboard so they dripped onto the kitchen floor. Also a bit more crockery and cutlery would have been helpful. As I said, very small niggles in an otherwise fantastic flat.

Apartment well placed for Torquay town centre. Quiet area but with easy access to bus stops and shops. Nice size apartment with everything needed for a short stay. Beds very comfortable in quiet rooms.
Notification from owners could have been better initially but when contact was made, good communication. Oven could have been cleaner.

We found this to be good value accommodation that allowed our 2 families to be located at the same accommodation address without being in different locations, though they weren't as close as we thought when I booked. Having a pet friendly accommodation option was great. It was quite a lively non-centre Torquay location too with a number of pubs restaurants, shops, all convenient to the accommodation.
The interiors were quite shabby and dated and have a vibe of Stag/Hen party accommodation, which is probably about right for the price range. Biggest issue was probably the shower/plumbing which was functioning but only just. The walkways in and out the property were very slippery and tricky to navigate in the dark. Finally a real bug bear is check in details are only sent on the day of travel, which for international travellers is very impractical, when an email could be sent at least a week prior.

The wifi only worked in the bedroom side of the apartment. There was no wifi signal in the dining room.
The bathroom was small - it would have been helpful if there had been an image of the full size advertised.
The shower was small.

nice modern and clean apartments. great location, a
shortish walk to the seafront, beach, restaurants, bars
etc. there’s crazy golf nearby and also an indoor
swimming pool and spa at a nearby hotel you can pay
to use. there are small shops nearby for food and
drink needs and a good bakery.
all of the other properties on the road had lovely
frontages with plants etc but there was nothing at the
front of our accommodation except a couple of
benches. it is on a busy road so is quite noisy.
7.0 / 10.0
Excellent location. Not far from town and beachfront.
Bright, airy apartment.
Concerned about the emergency fire exit in the main bedroom being bricked up.
No WiFi when we arrived. BT needed access whilst were out. Although owner did call and ask for permission.
The bathroom shower worked great but enclosure was mouldy and needed new sealant. (Even kids commented)
Cheap quality duvets and pillows.
Also the communal entrance hall door wasn't always locking.
