Front bedroom is very warm. The AC is not sufficient to keep it cool like the rest of the rooms.Hall bathroom toilet does not flush well and many times when flushed it spits a little bit of water out.Otherwise the condo was great.It is a bit bizarre that the sunlight window on the roof top looks right into the master bathroom.

The rating is based on master bathroom jacuzzi tub wouldn’t hold water so wasn’t able to enjoy it. The master bedroom doesn’t have blackout curtains/blinds (upper ones didn’t won’t to stay shut) so light poured in and sunrise comes directly in at 6am so no sleeping in on vacation. Due to colder weather being was stuck inside 3 of 4 days this unit unfortunately has basic cable and no smart tv so when nothing is on to watch your bored. I recommend bringing firestick for if have kids or by yourself at least you can watch something even in the peak of summer at night when wanting to relax. The hot tub on roof lights didn’t work and didn’t get about 93 probably cause it was like 35 degrees so didn’t enjoy trying it. Overall unit is beautiful and spacious just has some downfalls. Which if wasn’t for the unexpected temps in the 35s I’d say 4 out of 5 star rating maybe even a 5 star if I overlooked the jacuzzi tub but the blinds definitely need adjusted or fixed or replaced with blackout curtains.
Left top wouldn’t stay shut was able to get middle to finally close when fan was off

Thank you for taking the time to share this detailed feedback. I am glad to hear you found the unit beautiful and spacious, but I am very sorry that several issues affected your stay. Our team is already addressing the jacuzzi tub so it will hold water properly. We are also reviewing the master bedroom blinds to ensure they close as they should. The owner has purchased new smart TVs for the unit and is looking into blackout curtains to make the room more comfortable for future guests. The rooftop hot tub lights and temperature have been reported to building maintenance. Thank you again for sharing what would have made your stay better. We appreciate your honesty and hope to have the chance to welcome you back with a smoother and more relaxing experience.

Great Condo

We visited for Mother's Day and all enjoyed the stay. Everything was as pictured expect one bedroom which turned out to be a bunk room instead but was even better because it provided more sleep space. Everything was clean, staff answered all calls and gave very detailed information before the stay. Will definitely be visiting again!

Great vacation!

We absolutely enjoyed our week in this condo! Clean and beautiful. Rooftop views are perfect, we had a couple issues with the access code not working but quickly taken care of by host! The only suggestion I would have is some updated nonstick cookware. We would definitely revisit this property if it’s an option on our next visit!
