    While the location of the property was perfect, the home is bare bones. The property description states no AC but what it doesn't state is the incredibly old single pane windows and zero airflow throughout the bedrooms. Unfortunately, we were not able to get the bedrooms cooler than 80 degrees at night, even when the outside temperature barely hit mid 70s. The issue is the lack of circulation and old windows create a greenhouse type effect where the house will begin heating up as soon as the sun rises (82 degrees by 10am). Additionally, the mattresses and pillows are very, very old and cheap, adding to the sleeping difficulties. We ended up buying some pillows out of pocket in an attempt to get better sleep. The property management firm is great and responsive; however, this home is clearly someone's quick money stream in their portfolio and the absolute minimum investment has been made into it. I would sleep in a tent before staying at this property again.

    The house fit our family of 6 comfortably. We enjoyed the front patio, although the patio furniture was pretty old. The beds were ok. Everything was old and outdated. The back bedroom needs more than just a ceiling fan and tower fan for a comfortable night’s sleep. Air conditioning would be a major plus! The kitchen is in great need of more pots/pans, and bowls of varying sizes. We appreciated having the washer and dryer in the unit. The location is great! Overall, the house served its purpose for our beach stay.
    8.0 / 10.0
    Everything was great. Only suggestion is to have a fan for every bedroom and the living room area as it gets super hot in the summer. They only have a ceiling fan in the master and one electric fan to pump cold air. That cold air electric is vital. But seriously, everything else was great.

    We enjoy our stay and the location is ideal! Close to the beach, restaurants and shopping. Nice neighborhood too! Place was just as described and the check in and check out was so easy. Couple things to suggest would be: New carpet in master bedroom due to major fraying, door handle in middle bedroom kept falling off, and more comfortable seating in main room. Had a wonderful time overall and would definitely stay again!
