Overall we wish we would have stayed somewhere else. The condo itself was located in a decent area, but the valet requires you to go down an elevator, exit the building, enter another building and use another elevator. The listing didn’t make any mention of this. Along the same lines the valet service charged an extra fee for “tips” and forced me to pay them with Venmo. Super sketchy.
The unit itself offered great views. That was about the only highlight for us. The floors in the entryway and kitchen were dirty upon arrival. The kitchen countertops had what appeared to be dirt on them and there were dead fruit flys everywhere. The bathrooms were similarly unclean with hairs in the sink, on the floor, in the showers. Bath towels had hairs in them too…yuck!
The second en-suite bathroom had a clogged/slow drain in the sink and the toilet only flushed about half of the time. There were burnt out lights in the bathrooms as well.
The master bedroom’s bed was comfortable enough and quiet enough at night. However the nightstands have this glass/mirror finish and the previous guests had apparently damaged it, leaving cracked/shattered glass on the table. The host didn’t bother making any attempt at repair and simply placed the shards back where they came from leading to a nasty surprise in the middle of the night when I reached for some water! Other mirrored furniture had similar damage, but the host did not take proper repair measures or consider safety.
On top of that, the power went out twice during our four night stay. We ended up calling maintenance who eventually sent someone up, and they said it was due to the lack of water pressure? It doesn’t make much sense to me but the elevator and the rest of the building seemingly had power when we did not. It was an odd experience and could have been outside of the host’s control but it did happen and we found it to be noteworthy.
For the price spent on this stay we wish we would have stayed in an upscale hotel somewhere else or perhaps another condo. The price isn’t justified in the level of service, quality of upkeep, or amenities provided.
