ALMOST BEACH APARTMENT Just Steps from the Beach -Openings Now!

This gentleman was a pleasure to have here. He was polite and considerate, and I would welcome him back.I am glad to know that they enjoyed their stay. It is the guests of this nature that make doing this worthwhile, to have some small part in people being able to create some nice memories. Lynne Budzinski Almost Beach Apartments Anna Maria Island

These were very pleasant people who already knew the area and spent most of their time out on their ebikes. Evenings they would sit out in front enjoying the Florida weather, and I will be glad to see them again, if they come back this way. Lynne Budzinski Almost Beach Apartments

It was great having these women here! Sisters and they enjoyed themselves and were polite, wonderful guests. These are the type of guests that make doing this so rewarding, and I am happy they had a good time and would look forward to seeing them again.

The floors were completely done 2 times with a swiffer ( they are tile) at the end of cleaning. The cupboards and appliances were done with antibiotic spray. As for the air conditioning. When they left, it was 64 degrees in the front bedroom and 67 in the back bedroom. I came in as they left, and checked the temps with a thermometer to know whether there was a problem or not. As far as I can tell, the problem was that these are very simple, plain apartments, and advertised as such. When these guests arrived, I could tell by the facial expressions on one guest that they did not want to be here. I will say the same thing I have said before, do enough research on where you are staying to be comfortable there. Most owners don't want guests who are unhappy. I will also say that my door was just twenty feet away, and had there actually been a problem, they certainly knew I was available. When a guest doesn't bother to try to solve a problem, then the real problem is that they just don't want to be there in the first place.

I can't tell you haw nice it was to have these folks here. They made my day, three days in a row. I was sorry to see them go, and they are most welcome anytime they can come down. These were polite, pleasant, decent people, and I could only wish all my guests were of this caliber. Thank you for coming. Lynne Budzinski Almost Beach Apartments Anna Maria Island

As much as I hate to say it, I have no idea where they got this stuff. There was no food on the table, absolutely, I stood there and went over the house rules with them, put the keys on the table, it was shining when they checked in. No vomit or anything else under the couch. The baseboards will be painted in the fall, as they are every year, and they are swept when guests check out. The toilet was absolutely sparkling. inside and out, cleaned with a top line cleaner, outside done with Spic and Span spray cleaner to kill germs. These were not guests I would want back before I saw this review, this just adds another reason. Very hard on the property and very little communication about these items whatsoever. Maybe just angry people, I don't know. What requests they made, I complied with as quickly as possible, none of those requests made any comment about what is contained in this review.

I am glad things went well for these folks, they were polite, sweet people, and I didn't see them a lot, because they were at the beach. So, if I was able to help them enjoy their time away, then I am glad, and hope they make it back sometime. Lynne Budzinski Almost Beach Apartments Anna Maria Island

This woman checked in in a bad mood, for a two night stay. She got lost, and refused directions when I tried to give them. When they finally arrived,she had an extra guest.I assume she didn't think anyone know, since most places just leave a key out and never meet the guests. I got extra linens for them, offered beach towels ( not kept in the units), she refused them. There are four new beach chairs in the closet, apparently she wasn't listening when I told her where they were. That would explain why she didn't do the check out items that were explained to her. As for dirty floors, these are white tile floors, and are swiftered last thing after cleaning. If people find dirt , they brought it in themselves. There may have been a dead bug, we spray, but they come in with people if the doors are left open, also covered in the house rules. As to cooking utensils, Florida law requires a notice stating that we do not clean eating utensils. Which is why many people use single serve. The stove alarm was going off when I cleaned today, That is because the guests moved the settings on the stove top and left it in the clean/alarm position, I just turned it off. Living room furniture was shampooed in Jan., and the bath towels are about a year old. Don't know what else to say. I was pretty sure from the phone conversation trying to get her here that she was not going to have a good time no matter where she ended up. Sorry it was here.
