  : The apartment was spacious enough, it was advertised as a 65 square meter apartment, which should be correct. It had two separate bedrooms, which provided necessary privacy for all of us, a functional and decent kitchenette, with a connected dining/living area, and a decent bathroom with a standing tub. We did get a different apartment from the one pictured on the Booking.com listing, but surprisingly, it was better than expected, with newer and more modern furniture (Apartman 12 on the second floor). The beds were a bit soft but decently comfortable and there was enough storage space in the actual bedrooms. Towels and bed sheets were provided in the closets, as well as some other cleaning tools for keeping the apartment tidy. The location is what sells the apartment, in my opinion, as it is situated on the beachfront as advertised. All balconies have a fantastic aerial view of the small marina in front of Monaco, as well as multiple beaches that are only 2 minutes away from the apartment. The actual location is peaceful and great for families with children and people who enjoy a more relaxed vacation. There are 20+ restaurants in the 200m radius, multiple gift shops, a couple of supermarkets and even a fantastic bakery and gyros place nearby. The owner was pretty helpful.
  : Even though the apartment was solid, there were some issues that should be addressed: - The key was difficult to turn as the keyhole in our front door was pretty busted - the balcony in the bedroom in the back couldn't be closed at all, because the door wasn't installed properly initially, so we had to prop the door with a nightstand, in order to keep it shut - The balcony in the front bedroom (main balcony) couldn't be opened all the way, as the left side of the door was hammered shut - There was no WiFi in the apartment, despite it being advertised as an apartment with WiFi (which made things difficult at first as we were here on a working holiday and needed to buy additional internet - Since there was no Internet, our TV wasn't working as well (no aerial antenna, and no wired, nor wireless access on TV) - For the price, the actual furniture could be updated and the rugs/bathroom mats are screaming to be replaced, as they look pretty awful
