My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Thomas's place. There were some pros and cons.
PROS
- Free parking! The location is close to everything and parking can be hard to find. Luckily, we had a pass that came with staying here and always found a spot in the garage. Just be mindful of exiting - sometimes, it would take us about 30 mins waiting in line to exit the garage.
- Location! Mostly everything you may need is in walkable distance. Food, shopping, beach, mall, etc.
- View! Almost every morning and evening, we enjoyed the unobstructed views this place has to offer. Truly magical!
CONS
- Checking in: We had trouble with checking in. I called Thomas to help us and we got it figured out.
- Cleanliness: Overall, the place was clean but could use a more thorough deep-clean. For example, I noticed on our first day, the bath mat supplied in the bathroom had an immense amount of sand stuck in it. The place could use a more thorough mopping. I could feel sand and dust on the floors. I noticed the nightstand and bed headboard were also dusty.
- Amenities: I believe the place is still listed that it comes with a washer and dryer. However, upon booking, we received a notification that the washer and dryer are no longer functional. There is a laundromat available on the third floor. Thomas is working to get this appealed.
Other things to note:
- Thomas called me in the middle of our stay to come measure the bed. We were in a rush that day to get out the door, so we did not have time to put away our belongings. Thomas needed to measure the bed that day and it could not wait another day or until we checked out. Luckily, we were able to go back to the place and let Thomas know when he could come. I would have loved a bit more notice and found this to be extremely odd.
- The place has mirrors everywhere you turn. It is a bit weird to have that many mirrors in a place.
Thank you, Thomas and Team!
