2/10

Expect to be greeted with lots of bugs and the lingering smell of your great grandmas house. Listing says 2 twins, 1 queen and 1 king. It’s actually 4 twins and a queen. Oven was so dirty that just pre heating it caused the smoke detectors to go off. We had to wash anything in the kitchen before we could use it. The pool was disgusting (hair, cigarettes, band aid, broken beer bottle glass) and nobody ever came to clean it (we asked). Upstairs neighbors decided the occupancy limit didn’t matter, the stated pool hours didn’t matter, the fact that the patio was shared with 3 other condos didn’t matter, and the city’s noise ordinance didn’t matter. We’ve stayed in a rental condo every summer for 6 years now and by far the worst place we’ve ever stayed.

4/10

The house did not feel cleaned, especially considering they described it to be extra clean due to Covid. There were very minimal dishes and silverware (2 coffee mugs and 1 fork for a home that sleeps 6). There was food left on the previous silverware (gross!) All around the home felt very dirty. Considering we couldn't check in until 4pm and had to check out at 10am, there was definitely NOT 6 hours spent on cleaning and preparing the home. This property really needs to be better cleaned and maintained. The only reason I am giving it 2 stars and not 1 is because they tried to improve our experience by dropping off silverware and mugs after we called. We have stayed at many vacation homes before that had much better experiences so we will not be staying here again.

6/10

It needs more updating than a coat of paint. The queen mattress is shot - springs jabbing you. The counter chairs need pillows just to sit on them. No way to clean the pool or turn the filter on. We carried a table & chairs up so we had enough room for everyone to sit. We had 2 irons, no hair dryer. VERY limited meal prep for a place that sleeps a family.
