We loved the location! It’s really the perfect walking distance to everything. The owner was very attentive and responsive to our questions. You can’t beat the price for the location; however, you get what you pay for, right?
We weren’t unhappy with the condo; however, there were quite a few issues of cleanliness. In short, it reminded me of staying at a college dorm that hadn’t seen a vacuum, a trash can or cleaning products in a year. Thankfully, I brought some cleaning supplies from home. My husband had to clean a layer of black dust off of the ceiling fans. There was human hair and dirt on the baseboards & baseboard heaters. There was a soda can full of cigarettes left on the porch. The doors were dusty. The couches were dirty and needed vacuuming. I had to sweep beach sand off of the floor (to be expected...).
The kitchen needed the most help. The cabinets were dusty. The kitchen utensils had burnt on eggs stuck to them and there was also an ant problem. The ants prevented us from using the kitchen. The coffee pot was dirty and still had the full coffee filter and coffee grounds left in it from a previous tenant. There were dirty dishes in the dishwasher. There was a load of dirty smelly towels in the basket in the closet and the storage areas were very unorganized, messy and dirty. While I’m sure previous tenants did not improve the cleanliness of the condo. At the end of the day, we only used the condo to sleep and at least the bed was comfy.
The owner responded quickly when I vocalized our concern about the ant problem which was a plus; however, it wasn’t any wonder why there was an ant problem. In short, it really needs TLC; or at the very least a new housekeeping company. My husband & son had a nice time despite the cleanliness issue.
