Modern apartment in Shanklin

As usual very quick and easy to book this property with VRBO. Nice 2-bed apartment with balcony on first floor of complex, very modern and all the right facilities for a week's holiday. Very nice welcome pack including wine and complimentary Vectis mug. No guest folder or WiFi code provided so had to contact owners - received by email. Would have been helpful to provide appliance manuals, TV set up for Netflix but not working during our stay, which was disappointing. Nice to have lots of room and comfy recliner sofas in the lounge with views over Shanklin and the sea. Would suggest owners put thicker curtains in main bedroom as light flooded in very early and disturbed our sleep I.e. light coloured blind and drapes mainly for privacy. Annoying creak on bottom stair to bedroom could be fixed as not sure if heard by apartment below. These are intended as constructive comments/feedback as we did thoroughly enjoy our stay here.
