July 4th
Was the worst vacation I've had,sent the wrong codes to check in the room, floors was not clean, took the room from 9 Thursday nite to 10 the next day to cool off. Hot water only lasted a short time, I took mainly cold showers. Was woken up every day around 7 n the morning by large amounts of noise. Not a very family oriented place , smelled pot being smoked when on the balcony, would definitely not come back to this location. Very unsatisfied.

Won’t stay again
The first 24hours in the room were awful. Rom was ready 2 hours early but we literally couldn’t get in until 4:01. The sliding glass door wouldn’t open- was eventually “fixed” enough to open (with some WD40 it appeared), but was still broken and off the track, didn’t close tightly or lock. The floors turned my children’s feet black. The bunk sheets were dirty- they brought new ones that I had to put on myself. 2 nights in a row our room smelled like a skunk (obviously this was out for the control of the owner), it was weed from next door. We often smelled it in the balcony also. Only one main elevator (directly across from the room) worked over half the week. The washer and dryer are new but since they’re front load, they recycle the water and it’s makes clothes smell mildewy. Luckily we had other family and friends condos to spend time at.
