While the apartment was clean and nicely decorated, there were several issues:
- the smoke detector was beeping and clearly needed new batteries. It was taken down from the ceiling and placed on the dresser. Not by us. This is a huge safety issue.
- the remote to the ceiling lights and fan needed new batteries.
- there was no remote for the TV and only one beach towel. A woman brought over both after we checked in.
- some of the landscape lights were out as well as the motion light. We arrived late and then left again to get groceries and when we returned, it was difficult to navigate the stairs and get the key in the lock. Someone did come over and screwed in the bulb for the motion light after we noted the issue.
- there was a pair of socks left behind from the previous renter behind the door of one of the bedrooms.
- check out email stated “take your trash with you”. What are we supposed to do with it? I emailed agent with no response.
- cleaning equipment (mops, bucket, broom, etc.) left on deck. Who wants to look at that?
- old furniture on deck with ripped areas.
- barking dogs all day long, crying babies, whistles from the barges constantly, cockadoodling from the roosters from 1:30 AM -noon everyday.
- no water to take a shower or use the bathroom in the morning before we left. Provisions should have been made for this frequent issue as noted by the agent.
Communication with agent was a huge factor. VERY DISAPPOINTED
