Didier is very nice. He was quick to respond to my messages. The building is along the canal and had beautiful views of the city. The beach was a 15 minute walk. There are lots of restaurants nearby. The building has a pool, sauna, ice machine, BBQ gas grills, laundry (credit card), private convenience store, hot tub, fitness room, and 24/7 security. The building is shared with a hotel on-site, but all amenities are shared.
The apartment I ended up getting was different than the listing. It was close, but not the same. The unit I was in had a very tall bed (platform bed, box spring, and tall soft mattress), no views of the ocean, but only views of the canal, it had less counter space than the unit shown, the bathroom was small, and there was no art on the walls. The sheets didn't fit the bed and every morning I had to pull them down as the mattress was too tall. There were cockroaches in the bathroom and kitchen. I cleaned extra and routine pest control came, yet cockroaches still existed.
The unit would be good for a short weekend, but for a longer term stay it would be challenging. To cook rice all I had was a large 12qt wide bottom sauce pan. A bit hard to make 1-2 cups of rice in 3/8" of water. No measuring cups, the non stick frying pans had deep gouges (I've seen better at a thrift store), and the cooking oil provided was rancid. There are two coffee makers and a water kettle. Replacing a coffee maker with a small InstaPot would be life changing.
The AC in the unit struggled to keep up. It would run constantly when I was at home and set at 67F, yet it never got below 72F in the unit. The AC also leaked water on the lanai so I always had to wear shoes outside. Luckily there was a fan. The cable went in and out. The TV was a bit on the small side. But the TV did have cable and it was a smart TV (thank you!). There were not enough outlets next to the bed, so I bought an extension cord to plug by phone and computer in at night while in bed. To use the fitness room you need to pay $5 and speak with the building office. The "dedicated desk" was a folding table and I used on of the chairs from the lanai to sit. Perhaps remove one of the two large dressers and put in a desk.
There were three main events that happened in the building and per unit, but I wasn't notified. I only found out by reading postings in the building. It would have been nice to get a heads up. Once routine pest control came and two times the building shut off the water for about 4 hours for a building-wide repair.
With some simple improvements, this could go from ok to great.
