Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Ana H. 15 Jul 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location #### Excellent Condo Needs Improvements Condo can definitely improve in cleanliness. It seriously needs a modernization! TV's are old and they are a hassle, furniture is old, dated and chipped. One of my teens complained that the full bed in bunk smelled bad I looked at the mattress and it was nasty. Kitchen needs an inventory done asap. Barely has any good cookware what's there is in very poor shape. Kitchen blender is broken below spinning blade leaks your mixture. There are some plastic plates that are bended like a taco and are still in the shelfs. DONT DRINK THE WATER FROM SINK OR COOK WITH IT! Water comes out with debris not sure why. Found out while making lemonade. Maybe that's why a Brita purifier was supplied. Location is Amazing! Building amenities and access to beach are great. Best beach view from master bedroom and living room. Loved the 5th floor. Condo has great potential. Would definitely stay here for the views if they would put a little more TLC into this condo. I will definitely return to this building just not this condo as is. ##### Ana H. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025
