Nice, comfortable rental property (.75 mile walk to boardwalk)
This property was as pictured and comfortable. It was clean and well maintained.
Pros:
* The appliances that we did use worked (microwave, toaster oven, stove top, washer/dryer).
* The bed was comfortable and there were loads of extra blankets and pillows
* There were plenty of kitchen utensils, cutlery, dishes, cookware, etc...
* It is a safe feeling area to walk around in
* They had plenty of area guide books, and activities (fishing poles, crabbing gear, games, beach items, etc...)
* The rental agency staff was friendly on the phone regarding late check in and picking the keys and parking passes up was easy and just down the road a few miles.
Cons:
* Lots of road noise (we were there on bike weeks, so even worse when they arrived). The neighbors on the right were there and we could here their little dog barking but it didn't back too much and we didn't hear it while sleeping. There is a lot of water noise, but that is to be expected staying on the bay.
* The master bathroom needs severely updated. The sink is ridiculously low (like for a small child) and it killed our backs to get ready at it. I am 5'10" and it stopped about halfway up my thighs. My husband is 6'6" and it stopped just above his knees!
* Many lights either had burnt out bulbs, unplugged, or couldn't find a switch. We arrived when it was dark and there was not a single light left on at the property for us. We had to use our phone light to turn on a lamp as so many light switches we were flipping seemed to do nothing (some fans).
* We arrived with the air conditioning units turned OFF on the main floor and the master bedroom. Luckily we had to go to a restaurant and grocery store after arriving to give it time to cool down.
* The listing stated to bring just about everything but the kitchen sink. We brought EVERYTHING as told and it turned out we only needed bedsheets (mattress pad provided), bath towels, and shower soap and toilet paper (they actually provide it too, but it is tissue paper so we used ours). Everything else they had as far as bedding, kitchen linens, hand soaps, detergents, etc..).
* The cleaning guy was there in the condo before we had checked out (prior to check out time). We left and came back and he was in there getting ready to clean! We had already packed the car ( I guess he saw that) but he should not have entered the property until we checked out. He was nice
* Staff at rental agency at checkout time had zero customer service
