Bad circumstance, made good!!
Place very clean, property manager was the best!!!!!! Comfortable, ease parking. A/C went down… they Made EVERY effort to assure my comfort. Even 2 fans to my door at midnight to keep me comfortable till the service man could get there in the am. Sadly the system needed more than could be fixed in a day. They refunded 5 days of my stay. And made every effort to assure my comfort.. I’m sure the A/C is fixed. I would definitely stay again

Perfect!
We really enjoyed our stay! I was very apprehensive with the reviews about the noise but I can honestly say I may have only heard the train a couple times and it was not loud at all. The kids really enjoyed the pool and we were just a short walk to the water where they were able to catch some fish. The downtown area has any restaurant you could want. The place was very clean and they were attentive to all of our questions. We would definitely stay here again!

The condo was lovely and the view wasn't bad however the train and traffic noise was very annoying at nightime. I also understand these are things the owner has no control over. Overall a cute place and would stay again!

Good location
First time staying in this unit..but I had stayed at the property previously. Very convenient to downtown , FIT and beachside. Exceptional location for being able to walk to historic Melbourne areas restaurants etc. There is some intermittent train noise for any place in that area. For me it’s worth it for all of the above reasons. The unit is comfortable , clean and great view of the harbor. Much more comfortable than any hotel stay.

A great downtown Melbourne gem...
We've actually stayed in this building before at another time and the properties are all charming and comfortable. Always easy to check-in and get on with your our visits to the area. Very short walking distance to the downtown area where's there good restaurants and pubs, including a couple faves we hit every time we're there. Kraig and Shelley were excellent and attentive hosts and we'll definitely bookmark for future visits.

The trains run all night long. Besides the traffic noise, the only thing louder than the train is the units HVAC fan.

We greeted by the smell of urine in the parking. My white socks were brown after walking around the unit for an hour unpacking. We went out on the balcony to relax and enjoy the view. The beautiful view was there, until turned you head 3 degrees right where there were 6 lanes of highway, with, with heavy traffic and the noise of a highway to go along with it. Then, a freight train game through town blasting its horn less than 600 yards from the Unit. The freight train came through town about every 2 ½ hours all day and all night. Then every morning, before 6 am, garbage trucks emptying dumpsters in the area. The pool was behind another very tall condo building, but that did not block the noise. The small park, which was really just a grass strip with 2 benches, between the Condo units and the marina, open between 7 am and 7 pm, unless we had a permit. However, the Homeless guy spent several hours in the park after 7pm, ranting in conversations with himself and laughing hysterically, all of which we could here from the unit 3 stories above and overlooking the park. Downtown Melbourne is a 5-minute walk away" It takes longer than that to simply cross Route 1 without getting killed in the process. There is no need to try exploring to the left or right of that light along Route 1. To the left a drive through liquor, and several colorful characters, seemingly on drugs, but that’s none of my business. To the right you will find Wawa convenience store. I could go on...

Very nice property with nice view of marina and park. Easy access and check-in, and parking with elevator a plus. Plenty of linens and kitchen utensils with pots and pans. Internet and TV worked perfectly. Oly suggestions if to supply placemats to keep table clean, and blinds for front windows for privacy. Other than that, it was a nice comfortable stay.

Beautifully decorated condo, clean, comfortable. Beautiful view of harbor & Intercoastal. Only drawback was the roar of traffic on nearby US 1 tho closed doors blocked the noise. Enjoyed being in walking distance of Old Town Melbourne.
