To start: The listing was very clear that there were leftover issues from the storm last year, and this was reflected in the price. We were in town for a family emergency and needed somewhere clean and affordable to stay, so this didn’t bother us. However, there is significant leftover beach erosion and damage. They have one of the few pools for a mile that didn’t get destroyed, and we’re filling it. Also, we had a great ocean view with beautiful sunrises.
The room was mostly clean. When I walked it, it smelled and looked clean. The beds were as comfortable as any other hotel bed I’ve stayed in. The only issue in this regard was hair in the sheets. Check-out instructions ask guests to put sheets in the floor when we leave, so the most likely explanation is hair from the cleaners themselves. However, with cleanliness, perception is nearly as important as reality, so this freaked my wife out. There wasn’t a spare set in the room and the property manager wasn’t able to provide a set, but they offered to reimburse us if we bought a set. We just borrowed a set from the in-laws.
We could hear a lot of noise from the room next door. This was a hotel room with a joining door that was converted to a condo, so a lot of sound and smell travels through this door. Fortunately, our neighbors were not horrible, but YMMV.
Overall, it was great for the value and the property managers were great too. Would have been 5 stars if not for “the hair incident”
