We had high expectations for our stay but were somewhat let down to find most of the amenities were closed or un-usable during our stay. Our biggest issue was with the WiFi that did not work at all, and was impossible to stream movies or log into work when needed. The room we stayed in was outdated and felt very used or not very well maintained, but the view was beautiful and location is great. Otherwise, not sure if we would stay again. ##### Kelly S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robin M. 13 Sept 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great getaway spot Convenient and cozy. Apartment was equipped with full kitchen and laundry facilities making it feel like a home away from home! Would definitely come back! ##### Robin M. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Josh G. 7 Aug 2025 #### Golden Sands 505 Cold AC. Nice kitchen. The bad: Beds, toilet, hot water longevity ##### Josh G. ### 8/10 Good #### Amy K. 23 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great location, nice amenities. Very compact space, so you need to be tidy, but it really suited me and my husband perfectly. Our only issue was that the bed was incredibly uncomfortable. Just having an optional egg crate pad would do wonders. The other thing to know is that the corridors to the front door of each unit on every floor is outdoors. I'm scared of heights, so was not a fan. But I know lots of people don't care, so just a heads up. ##### Amy K. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Theodore V. 4 Jan 2023 #### Great except WIFI All as promised; clean and great. But unfortunately the Wifi as guests was never working or connected to the internet all through our stay. That’s a pretty significant miss in these days. ##### Theodore V. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Nicole G. 21 Dec 2022 #### Liked the set up but could be cleaner Liked the Murphy bed it was actually comfortable and gave us more room and the built in drawers were nice and big but there was mold on the shower doors, the counter sound the sink was crusty and the floor needed mopped. I want to come to a room that’s already clean and not clean it myself or have someone come and try to do what they did not do in the first place ##### Nicole G.

Kitchen was fully equipped. ##### Lorraine Z.
