Joann was a thoughtful host. She responded quickly and was polite. We made a request to check out late and she was able to accommodate us. The instructions and directions were excellent. Check-in was easy and stress free. Building location was perfect as it was minutes away from Charley Young Beach and walk-able to several great restaurants. So you can eat out everyday or see the sunrise/sunset at the beach.
The condo is located on the third floor and there is no elevator so this may be challenging if you have mobility issues. The initial bed was replaced after a few nights. Joann arranged for the new bed to be delivered while we were out and it was a much needed upgrade. The condo is located right by the stairs so loud discussions woke us up most mornings. The signs tell people to keep it down to no avail so it may bother you if you're a light sleeper. We got used to waking up very early which worked out. Overall the condo was clean and had ample room for two people.
Washing machine is $1.50 and drying is $1.00. The machines only take quarters. Bring some detergent and anti static sheets. Everything else was included (utensils, oven, fridge, microwave, towels, beach umbrella, hangers, pots, pans and left over ingredients). FYI Stove top is gas. Make sure to bring body soap and shampoo. Minor issues: tub drained slowly, the shower head was positioned a little low, water temperature in the shower kept changing (building maintenance tried to fix this but it never got fixed), and the A/C unit is quite loud in the beginning.
The condo is not picture perfect so don't go in expecting a five star hotel. But Joann's hospitality and the condo's location made up for any shortcomings. We very much enjoyed our stay.
