Pros: secure parking, working full kitchen, additional sleeping arrangements.
Cons: check in - 48hrs prior: We email confirmed check-in details. We were frustrated at arrival with a toddler after 12 hours of travel, the door code was not included in the instructions. Awaiting entry code details was an inconvenience.
Daily: noise problems - owner should invest in interior windows that seal sound, not glass shutters(see below).
4am: Roosters waking us up. Everyday. (That's Hawaii though)
4am to 6am: commercial garbage trucks beeping and backing up incessantly followed by crashing glass. 10x a morning.
No chance for daytime naps, other contractors nailing, doing demo, using circular and table saws our whole trip.
Vagrants everywhere, the condo has an east and west side backlane, bum fights non stop. Listened to them all. One required 911 at the hotel next to us, her screaming lured out every balcony in a two block area. 20 minutes straight.
Bars let out,: 12am to 230am, screams, fights etc.
correcive action: get windows that SEAL!.
Kitchen: oven burns everything. 400f? Cook at 275F. No tongs. No oven mitts. Stove, fridge etc was fine.
Slider door to balcony, jammed, tons of filth in the floor threshold, I had to clean it just to get the door to open properly with ease.
Toilet: lever requires more force than my wife or son could apply to it to flush the toilet. So I did.
3 rolls of toilet paper provided for 12 days, 3 occupants? 3, 5gal kitchen waste bags? Inadequate.
