Gulf Shores Spring Break

Absolutely loved the location, proximity to shops, restaurants and the beach was amazing. Loved that the pool was heated. Our room was exactly as described, had a maintenance man show up the day we arrived to change a light bulb we didn’t even know was out. Will stay again

The convenience and view from this building was excellent. The beach pathway, parking lot and heated pool were all wonderful. There is more evening noise on the parking lot side from guests / live music across the street, but our sound machine worked for that. We enjoyed being able to walk 5 minutes to a restaurant and an ice cream shop. The front desk was easy to access, and they had a little shop inside with gifts and toiletries / beach items at reasonable prices if you forgot anything.The kitchen was fully stocked as described and can easily be used for cooking full meals. The condo was cleaned very well by housekeeping, but there was a clear need for larger upkeep, for example, the vents had visible mold so we chose to just run fans and keep A/C off. There were also unplugged lamps but a power strip plugged in and dangling precariously in the second bedroom. The evening lighting is dim if that’s an issue for you (our family prefers that though). We did have wet floors (small puddles) all over the condo when we arrived and had to wipe it up. It seemed like dips in the floor that did not dry from mopping. Clearly the floor was cleaned, it was just inconvenient upon arrival.The balcony furniture is different than pictured (newer I think) and was just enough for the space / three people.The host was quick to message back and kind. Overall we very much enjoyed our stay, and everything is super convenient. We just may try a different unit next time!

Could be better

Great location and easy parking and beach access but everything else was ehhh. Smells of mold as soon as you step in. Toilets had mold. Very old and decor was awful. Kitchen wasn’t very well stocked with utensils or cooking ware. Very thin walls you hear EVERYTHING YOUR NEIGHBORS DO!! Lots of other guests were smoking pot on balconies and you smell it everywhere lots of late night parties at the pool that you can’t hear the tv over or sleep and security was a joke. They did nothing. Kids running the halls yelling at all hours and even knocking on doors and running away. I will not be back.

Good Location

Good location, parking and beach access. For the price room needed more basics. Real pain going to the store for TP, dishwasher soap and laundry soap. Have stayed in other places like Branson Mo. and always found the units better stocked with basics.
