Reviewer Comments:
When we originally booked “Sit Back and Relax,” we loved that the condo was affordably priced, dog-friendly, and positioned right across from all of the Cinnamon Shore nightlife. But unwittingly, we got what we paid for. The condo itself felt unkept; grainy floors and surfaces (I realize we are at a beach, and sand happens! But it’s another thing when, upon arrival, sand is already everywhere), oily/dirty couches (given that they’re upholstered cloth and it’s a dog-friendly unit, we should have thought of that before booking... but we did not feel like we wanted to “Sit Back and Relax” in them). Furthermore, at bedtime on our first night, we discovered that the top bunk bed wasn't made all the way (the fitted and regular sheets both tucked in on the top side only). We even found kid underwear in the sheets, causing us to wonder if they had gotten washed with the sheets and had accidentally been mixed in with the half-remade bed, or if the sheets were even washed at all. We also found a very used Revlon hairbrush dryer in the bathroom cabinet (appeared to be left behind by a previous tenant and not offered as a condo amenity), a dog collar on the floor, shoes under the primary bed. Overall it felt unkept. While it was fun being in close proximity to the live music and nightlife, it also meant that it was loud in the evenings and that people regularly walk past the unit. Because of this, we had the windows closed most of the time which was a bummer. Consider that if you want natural light during your stay! Overall, Cinnamon Shore is a wonderful place to stay and we enjoyed the greater campus property as a whole. Very family-friendly and very well-run.
