We really enjoyed our stay at Samuel’s place.
There are just a few things that I would like to mention about his apartment.
The unit # 16 is great for a couple or for a party of 2. We stayed there with my mom for 2 weeks.
As soon as we checked in we found a little black flatworm next to the bed stand. I understand that this place is located on the ground level and things like that can happen in Florida. Luckily, we didn’t see any other creatures during the rest of our stay.
Prior to our arrival, I made sure to let the host know that my mom is allergic to dust and mildew. I just wanted to make sure that the AC unit was properly inspected as well. The unit itself was cleaned pretty well, however AC still smelled like mildew. It’s older AC unit and they are just known to be quite loud and smelly. It wasn’t bothering us too badly since we weren’t home for the most part of the day. Nevertheless, people with the light sleep might find it difficult to sleep because it can get pretty loud on some settings.
The kitchen was great and we cooked most of our meals at home. Samuel made sure to provide all the necessary things and even some extras. However, I would prefer to have sugar and salt instead of Diet Coke and seltzer in the mini fridge.
The bathroom area is pretty small but very well-organized. They provided a lot of towels including beach towels and all the toiletries. There is even a first-aid kit.
The toilet had an issue with water tank, sometimes after flushing it kept making the sounds of running water. The manager offered to send the plumber but then the issue disappeared so we assumed we don’t need it fixed anymore. It was reoccurring once in a while so we didn’t care about it as much.
I have contacted a manager of a property a few times and he was always prompt to respond.
I am managing a property with 16 apartments on Airbnb myself. I was a little bit disappointed that we were denied an extra fitted sheet for our king size bed considering the fact that we were staying for 14 days, quite a long time I think.We were told to use the washer on premises. I understand that every place has their own rules but I didn’t feel like they tried to accommodate the guests. There were only few units occupied during our whole stay and I feel like we could be provided with a simple thing like one fresh bed sheet.
At last, I contacted Jesnael to see if we could have a later check out at 11am instead of 10am. This one hour difference could really help us before the long flight. We were told that the cleaning crew needs every minute to make sure the unit is ready. Reasonable, but we were the only unit checking out and cleaning people were sitting outside for like 30 mins just waiting for us to leave. I could be wrong but it didn’t look like they had any other cleaning job besides our tiny unit that day.
Yet again I was really happy with the place but for the time we stayed there and for the amount of money we paid I feel like our little concerns(or wishes) could be accommodated a little bit better. I would consider staying here again because the place is really clean, has pool and located in a very quiet area. It’s a little far from the beach but very close to supermarket. This place is a good choice for a short stay. Thank you once again!
