We told the owner that we would be staying in the unit with the six of us (my husband and me, our two grown children and two younger children), and our daughter and son-in-law with their six-week old baby would be joining us for the day times. We would have really appreciated it if we had been made aware that this would be a quite crowded situation and that maybe this wouldn't be the ideal place for us. The photo here must have been taken with a special lens.

Pros: The unit is modern, large bath sheets, queen bed was comfy, washer and dryer in unit was nice, showers are very fancy, lighted make-up mirror is nice, view from the balcony is peaceful. Water pressure is excellent (almost too good - don't open taps in bathrooms all the way!)

Cons: Unit overall was not very clean. Door knobs felt sticky and I washed both bathroom floors the first evening because I wiped up some water that had splashed on the floor and the tissue I used came away filthy. We had only been in there for an hour or two. There was no way that that floor had been washed. It grossed me out to think I was walking on a floor possibly splashed with urine from a previous renter. I also washed down the hallway wall because there was food or something sloshed on the wall. Drawers and cupboards in the kitchen were dirty. The stove top (glass top) had been wiped but had baked on food that could have been easily cleaned with a razor blade and a bit of stovetop cleaner in a couple minutes with little effort. It was like no one cared to do a decent job on the place. I have never paid that kind of money for a condo (and we've stayed at lots over the years) and had to live in dirt like that.

The kitchen is ill equipped to make dinner in. Not one decent knife for chopping, no decent sized salad bowl, no ceramic dishes for the oven. No hand mixer. No salad spinner. No blender. There were 4 frying pans, however (?!?). There was only a tiny bit of pepper in the pepper shaker, aluminum foil was in the laundry, and there was no saran wrap.

BBQ was filthy, balcony furniture was run down. There was a coffee spill left by a previous renter, again no one had even tried to clean it up.

It's really too bad. I don't like to write such a negative review. A little effort, (give the place a good cleaning and hire some people to clean who care and stock the kitchen with better meal making equipment, etc.) and this place could be really great. I hope that happens.
