In summary, this condo is showing it’s wear and neglect and the owner has issues with being truthful. On 11/8/22, 10 days before our arrival, the owner knew the washer & dryer were broken and needed replaced. Because of his wheeling and dealing to get the cheapest solution he didn’t get it done and it fact at this point it won’t be replaced until mid December. Very disappointing for us and cost us many hours doing laundry elsewhere. But what was even more concerning is that he didn’t feel the need to let us know ahead of time so that we could better plan and then he instructed us to trespass on another property near by to do our laundry in their laundry mat. This place has very clear signs posted for “No Trespassing” and “Only for use of their guests”. He also said he didn’t know why we were making a big deal about having to use a laundry mat, the people that rent his other unit that doesn’t have a washer & dryer don’t complain. Really? I would think not. Rules and common decency apparently don’t apply to this guy.
In regards to the unit, here are the facts. It starts at a filthy front door and an old rusted appliance sitting in the hallway in front of our unit for the entire 11 day stay. Then open the door to see a damaged and very poorly repaired door frame with yellow staining. In the unit here are just some examples of the issues you will find 1) a large unsightly hole in the bathroom wall, 2) cracked gaps in the paint and caulking around the shower which I’m sure makes it impossible to clean properly, 3) both bathroom sink drain plugs do not work, 4) ripped and unsightly carpet on the balcony, 5) rusting, collapsing art on the balcony, 6) very loud jets passing only a couple of hundred feet overhead from 6 AM until midnight as the end of the airport is only a couple hundred yards away, 7) strange taped up notes from the owner throughout the unit, as example, one that says “Keep the couch cover on the couch, it is brand new” and so you get to sit on a cheap wrinkled corduroy type cover in a unit you have spent good money for.
I wish I could post pictures of all of this.
On the good side; the location is good, other than the airport being so close, the mattress in the master bedroom is comfortable, there is some under cover parking on a first come first serve basis.
Net, now that we better know this owner I’m sure he will post a disclaimer to my post, but trust me, be wary of this owner and property.
