We always rent a Sea Cabin for our IOP getaway. This year was a huge disappointment for a number of reasons. 1) For the price we pay per night, we did not expect to be micro-managed by having the thermostat locked, so that it could not be set below a certain temperature. We were miserably hot at night, and the condo was stuffy. For safety purposes and for our security, we are not going to leave the sliding door open, and we should not have to when there is a perfectly acceptable heating and cooling system. We are adults that are perfectly capable of controlling our own thermostat to a reasonable level. We should not have to be punished for the idiots who came before us. 2) The mattress must’ve been purchased in 1980, because I don’t know if they make that type anymore. When my husband and I got into bed, we literally rolled into each other into the middle. The squeak was so loud, that if I breathed or moved to put my phone on the nightstand, he woke up. Combine that to the fact that it was hot, and it made for some horrible nights with lack of sleep. 3) The couch needed to be replaced, because once you sat down, you needed assistance to get out of it. 4) The coffee maker...well, it wasn’t a Keurig like all of the other Sea Cabins we’ve rented...so although we brought the coffee we needed and already had on hand, we still had to make a run to the store to purchase more. Cha-Ching $$! Not to mention it took 15 minutes to make a small pot. 5) If the owners of this unit cannot afford to update it with a new mattress and allow the renters the freedom to adjust their own thermostat, maybe they need to learn how to budget this extra income better. Five days of ****** sleep, back pain, and a slow coffee maker that didn’t even brew what we drink? What a huge disappointment after setting aside vacation time and extra money. So much for that relaxing getaway we needed so desperately after a truly difficult
