The Mark at Surfside, Apt. 4

It was a great place to stay

It's a nice, clean place. Two women and my son. We felt safe. Very close to the beach. Pictures are out dated. Table was very small . Couch was outdoor furniture. But everyone was very nice. We never seen or spoke to the property manager. The place was very clean and beds and pillows very nice. Bring a blanket. But I nice inexpensive place to stay.

Just a few things. The sink did not have a stopper to do dishes and the sink in kitchen was leaking when I was doing dishes. Other than that it was great. Thank you

This was my third stay at this property. It’s always been bare bones, but in the past the listings were accurate this time it was not. If I understand correctly, it’s under new management, and they have supposedly done a bunch of updates, which seem to have been all just pictures, not reality. The listing showed a comfy couch, a plush chair, dressers and solid side tables by the bed, a bathroom vanity, and a full kitchen with stove. Instead, there was an outdoor seating instead of the couch, no plush chair, no stove, no dressers, and the solid furniture was replaced with dollar store flimsy tray tables. The bathroom vanity was missing and instead was a pedestal sink. I have never seen such a blatant bait and switch. The host did offer me a small discount, but I would have much preferred to get what was advertised. The host said that it was because of the hurricane 8 months ago, and that nobody else has had a problem with it. It doesn’t take 8 months to take new pictures or replace the furniture. I do love the location. The bed was acceptable. I would stay again if the listing was updated to accurately reflect reality so I can pack extra pillows and blankets to try to make something out of the seating area. The place wasn’t horrible, just that it was badly misrepresented. It was functional, but barely.
