Loved our 5nt stay, Julie thought of everything for the condo as it was very comfortable. Best part were the bikes available, we took full advantage with the TART path being right off the back of the property - headed downtown, to the beach, and breweries. Would love to stay again!
This is a beautiful condo, very small but was perfect for my husband and & I and our two small dogs. It would not fit 4 adults, kids maybe on the sofa. Our goal was the Tart Trail, bikes & dogs and it was perfect for that. There’s a temporary issue with the AC, we weren’t made aware of so window needed to be open for that and it’s a ground level so lots of parking lot noise. We did buy the insurance, thank goodness because even though there was a known plumbing issue, which I immediately reached out to the owner about, we came home to a claim notification. IMO when there is a known issue and a renter reconfirms this, correct it on your own dime. We paid a lot of money to stay here. Disappointed in the response I received about that, so buy insurance or not and maybe she won’t make a claim.
Absolutely the cleanest stay I've ever had. Listing was 100% accurate, and my check in process was incredibly easy. Kitchen was prepped, but i ended up ordering out, went to a place 5 minutes away and came back to a comfortable bed. Will definitely stay here again if I'm ever in the area
