Dear guest,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the excellent location, but we are truly sorry to hear the condo did not meet your expectations. This condo is listed and advertised as economical with minimal upgrades, but we appreciate your comments regarding storage, hangers, towel hooks, and the TV placement—these details are very helpful, and we will be reviewing them for potential improvements.
We are sorry we won’t have the chance to host you again, but we do appreciate you taking the time to let us know how we can do better for future guests.

Basic Condo stay
The condo needed more essential items. Cooking utensils were super cheap or didn’t have what was needed to cook with. There were nats flying up from the kitchen sink.
The lock was hard to work. The door had to be pull to while trying to unlock the door.
We have stayed at this condo complex plenty of times and all of the other condos was way better then this one.
