Thank you for the review. This is a standard one bedroom condo that we lived in for two years while building our home on Marco Island. The bathroom has a full walk-in shower with seating and a single bowl vanity sink, suitable for one person at a time, similar to a hotel bathroom, but at much less cost. The condo association recently repaired a roof tile. The ceiling has been given a base coat that is closely matched to the original paint, but not exact. Additional painting will be done when the unit is not occupied. Air conditioning filters are changed on a regular basis, and the closet is vacuumed, but in between there may be some accumulation around the filter. This is normal maintenance. We live here on Marco Island and would be happy to address any issue that you may find while you are here.

Thank you for your review.

This is a full one bedroom condo with a fully functional kitchen, including a dishwasher, refrigerator, microwave etc. The bathroom has a full-size walk-in shower large enough to include built-in seating. There is a vanity with a single bowl. We lived in this condo for two years ourselves while building our home on Marco Island. The condo is larger than adjacent hotel rooms at the Marriot, at a price that is 80% less. Roof tiles were recently replaced by the condominium association due to a roof leak, and the ceiling was given a base coat. The final coat will be given when the unit is not occupied. The association is still finding occasional remnants from Hurricane Irma, such as a loose roof tile. As to "dust everywhere" we have no idea. We live here and check the unit frequently. We ask that everyone notify us "while in the unit" if there is any issue.

Condominium rentals differ from hotel rentals in the following ways:

1. There is no on-site housekeeping staff. Contract cleaners are scheduled in advance, have many units in different locations to clean, and need to begin cleaning when they arrive in order to finish all condos without inconveniencing arriving guests. They are given a window of time to arrive and depart. They may arrive exactly as scheduled, or they may arrive later, as long as they are finished prior to the arrival time of the next guests. No one wants to arrive after a long trip and find a unit that has not been cleaned, so we request that guests depart on time.

2. Condominiums provide initial supplies, such as a roll of bathroom tissue and paper towels. If additional disposable items are in the unit, they were probably left by previous guests.

3. Many condominium complexes do not permit washers and dryers in the units. They instead have a laundry room on each floor. Guests are requested to use a reasonable amount of linens, and are not expected to launder normal amounts of sheets and towels. These guests were here for only 3 days, so it would be normal to leave a basket of linens, which would include a set of bed sheets and towels.
