The number one great thing for me was the location, near the Thunderbolt Marine Shipyard. It is a good spot for one person and maybe a couple. There is also a pull out couch. The pictures were accurate. Great value for the area.

Pictures do not capture that this must be a converted garage to a one-room in-law suite. I could hear everything as if the neighbors were in my room.The connecting door WAS NOT LOCKED on my side. Furnishings were in poor condition, couches were stained. Throw blanket/pillows were old (smelled). No stove. Found a two burner hot plate in a drawer. No dishwasher. Cheap flatware and very few utensils. No full set of cookware. Single serving air fryer and micro-coffee machine. The kitchen was dirty. Mattress was hard and thin. Bedding was old and uncomfortable. There was no thermostat for central air, but there was an air conditioning unit in a window. There’s a “shared” backyard with no direct access from the unit. Yard was not well maintained and the outdoor furniture is dilapidated.The window unit air conditioner flipped the breaker. After the third time flipping it, I gave up trying to use it. Room was stuffy, and it was FEBRUARY.Owner was communicative and responsive. Location was okay. To check out one hour later, 35. Shameful.Disappointed for the price.

Very dirty
A lot of expectations for the checkout process
Cockroaches all over (I have pictures)
Wrong number to open the door when I got there
A pain to check in - they emailed me two forms an hour before and the link did not work
Lights went out and the owner sent me outside to fix them under the pouring rain
Unbelievable that o had to pay for this…

We're truly sorry to hear about your experience during your stay, Luciana. Cleanliness and a smooth check-in process are our top priorities, and it’s clear we fell short in these areas. We appreciate you bringing the cockroach issue and the check-in difficulties to our attention, as these are concerns we take very seriously.
Our team is addressing the issues you mentioned, including ensuring accurate information for access and improving our communication. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve. We hope you might consider giving us another chance in the future to provide you with a better experience.
When we arrived everything was ok except for the pool was brown green. I called it in and they sent a guy out to work on it. Still green. Then on July 1 came we came back from the beach and was locked at. The property had been bought out by a new owner. Another pool guy was there Called new company and after 2 hrs got us in room. The door knob into the bathroom was barely hanging on. I took a knife and fixed it. The day before we left the pool water was clear however a lot at of sand and some leaves were on the bottom on the pool. I feel the pool should’ve been vacuumed. This was advertised as a usable part of the property. I feel I use be compensated 300 for false advertisement and then still not able to use the pool after “worked on “.

Green pool
Unfortunately, we had a very disappointing experience with this property. We were informed the day before our stay that the pool needed to be cleaned after a storm came through and it wouldn't be usable the first couple days of our stay. Though this was a bummer, it was understandable. When we arrived, the pool was green and had algae growing in it. When a couple of days had gone by with no update and no maintenance performed on the pool, I inquired about it, and was informed that the pool's motor was broken and it wouldn't be fixed during our stay. The pool was the number one reason that we booked the property. It was apparent that the pool had not been properly maintained for some time prior to our arrival. I was very disappointed with how this was handled and it had a very negative impact on our trip and experience.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback, Rachel. We sincerely apologize for the issues you experienced with the pool during your stay. We understand how important the pool was to your plans, and we're sorry it did not meet your expectations.
We did our best to inform you about the initial storm-related cleaning delay before your arrival. However, we recognize that the situation became more frustrating when the pool's condition did not improve, and the broken motor further complicated matters. We strive to provide a positive experience for all our guests, and it's clear we fell short in this instance.
While storms can cause unexpected maintenance challenges, the green water and algae growth were not up to our usual standards, and we're taking steps to address this. We regret that our communication and handling of the situation negatively impacted your stay, and we appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention.
We’re reviewing our maintenance processes and communication practices to prevent similar issues in the future. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve, and we hope you’ll consider giving us another chance in the future.

Overall this was a nice enough place to stay. We were unsatisfied with the miscommunication before booking and the detail spots of uncleanliness we saw upon check in.The apartment was spacious, as it was just the 2 of us. Ample room to relax, although the bed was a little uncomfortable after sleeping on it several nights.The main reason we chose this property was for the pool. We asked if the pool was open *before* booking, and we were told "yes the pool is open". Then after arriving and noticing the pool only became more green during our stay, we contacted the host and were told the pool was closed indefinitely.(We did get a small refund for this, but we would have rather know before booking as it was not worth it, in my opinion)While overall the property was clean, we did notice detail areas were quite grimy and had not been cleaned in a long time. Such as the rim of the washer, the baseboard areas, and the air filter near the bathroom/main bed. (I did let the host know about the filter and they offered to fix it during our stay)This is a duplex type of property and the wall separating the 2 sides is thin. We heard our neighbors the entire time they were staying next door. Something you may want to consider if that sort of thing bothers you.I will say that the location was great because everything we wanted to do was 15-20 mins from the property. I would just be weary of booking if you are looking to use the pool or are sensitive to noisy neighbors.
