    “Washing machine door not fitting well.”

    Some of the light switch caps were not secure and kept falling off. ( lounge and master bedroom ) Only small things, but could end up being a problem. Certainly didn’t spoil our holiday in this beautiful apartment We have holidayed at the Peninsula apartments for over 10 years. Hayley and her housekeeping team always keep the apartments spotless. A big shout out to them. Hope to get back very soon.
