Perfectly comfortable apartment which was well equipped. Nice welcome hamper but only 2 tea bags and coffee pods for a 2 night stay. Close to all Northside attractions and a short bus journey to the busier Southside. I would not be marketing this as a garden view apartment.. it looks onto the multi storey car park with trees beyond that

We enjoyed our stay at the Sands apartment. It was a nice area with lovely views looking out to north beach. We stayed in a duplex apartment on the ground floor and felt the bedrooms were a bit small and cramped. Not enough storage space eg. No chest of drawers in the main bedroom and only 10 hangers between two adults. We lived out our cases. The outside patio area and chairs were filthy and not cleaned for our arrival. Having seen inside another two bed On the 4th floor it was far superior in terms of decor and space.
