Condo was Great; Building had Issues
We rented the condo so our extended family could celebrate my father in law's birthday. The condo was perfect, with the exception of no cold water in one shower. It was beautiful, spacious, well appointed, and clean. We loved the multiple decks and the fireplace/tv combo.
The building itself left much to be desired. Saying that, we understand it is October and off-season, so maintenance is to be expected, but for the amount we paid for this place, we would have expected either more notice of what was being done, or a discount in the price.
I received a call about a week prior to the trip; the agency said there was to be some construction during our stay.
Not liking the sound of that, I was told it was only minor work, basically replacing the molding in the hallways, and the chance they would be working on the 10th floor while we were there was small.
The construction in the hallways was extensive. All the light fixtures were removed, drywall was being installed for the entire length, and debris was everywhere. Drywall dust covered the carpets, and there were drywall nails EVERYWHERE. Each time I went to the elevator I had to kick nails off to the side so our elderly family members would not step on them.
One of the amenities listed for the building is a game room; we found the room locked and off limits, as it was being used as a storage room for the construction crews. Topping it off, a truck came on Saturday and removed all the games entirely. Result: unhappy teens.
