The location is perfect, the pool is lovely. The onsite staff are pleasant and the unit appeared to be really clean. Having said that, The unit leaves a lot to be desired to comfortably accomodate guests.
We booked for four adults. The seating in the living space technically seats four however the chairs are so worn through that the rush seats are below the frame thus making them unusable. The sofa is old but as long as you don't use the sleeper, it is serviceable. The sleeper is horrible.
The bed in the master is on wheels and the headboard is not attached. At two in the morning, rolling over felt like Mr. Toad's wild ride so I tried to sleep on the pull out. I sent pictures of the horrible bite marks that I woke up with, to the management. They texted that someone would get back to me. No one did.
My son appreciated that his bed was against two walls, that minimized his bed traveling however, my other kid did woke up every morning with the headboard leaning over her pillow. I do not understand why a management company would not have properly assembled beds much less a master bed on wheels on tile. This is not a suite designed for discreet romance.
I returned mid day to the apartment to find unannounced men on the balcony. I was a bit freaked out since my daughter was napping in the apartment at the time. I communicated with the management that I needed to know when workers were going to be in the apartment. They assured me that they would, until the next day when another unannounced worker came by to fix a water issue ( I know it was a water issue because the retiree below us let me know all about the issues with the condenser dripping onto her deck, apparently this is a long term issue causing rot to her unit, I assured her that we did not know the owners thus, could not do anything). Generally speaking, the workers were all pretty nice guys who did their best to keep out of the way. Had we known they were coming, we would have planned accordingly. Unfortunately, cutting and installing new gutters on the deck while hubs was trying to get through a webex call with a team of executives proved to be problematic for my husbands work day.
The pool is nicely maintained. It gets a bit crowded and several of the retirees had fairly loud conversations about the crowds getting worse because the HOA only allows 26 weeks of rental per year but owners are ignoring the rules and crowding the pool.
The park behind the Truman Annex is beautiful, the unit is perfectly located and the grounds are a pleasure to walk through. Several other management companies are present in the complex including Compass. I would not recommend a property managed by Vacassa due to poor customer service but I would recommend this gated community. There were a few other irritants but I feel like a week of bad sleep just emphasized what should be non issues so just know, bring a few dishwasher pods if you are here for any length of time. They only give you two and you don't want to leave unwashed dishes anywhere in Florida. If you come in at night, parking is not in front of the unit door. If you are a light sleeper you may want to bring earplugs, one of the neighbors listens to their television pretty loud. If the ironing board falls on you, slide it under the bed, it fits fine just don't leave it close to the bed's wheels -no one wants that extra noise.
