Disliked: Cleanliness
Great location, but needs work!
We liked the location and layout of the unit, but the rug was dirty and needs replacing. Very few amenities. Very dated unit. Sofa was old and uncomfortable. We would stay in this unit if it was clean and updated.
Spent 4 days at the Whaler. Unit is light with a lot of mirrors! Makes it appear bigger. Good view for being on the ground floor. Shower was not working, and was not repaired during our stay. The day of move out we were told that the unit needed maintenance and workers were waiting to enter as we left. Would probably not stay again.
