Could Have Been Better

We recently stayed at this VRBO with another couple for 2 weeks. The experience did not meet our expectations.The property lacked written instructions for various amenities, which would have been helpful, especially with the TV and thermostat.Closet and drawer space was very limited, making it difficult to store clothes for a longer stay. We ended up keeping our clothes in our suitcases. Finally, there were some cleanliness issues that were concerning. Specifically, the bedroom fans were covered with a layer of dust, the bathroom fan needed to be cleaned, the floor of the bathroom tub was peeling, and several areas needed to be painted.

Ok

The inside was very clean and nice except there was very little hot water so it made it hard to shower. We tried to sleep in the master bedroom but the wood was completely rotted out and cold air was blowing in all night, also we didn't feel very safe because so many of the windows were rotten. We were forced to sleep on the hard twin beds.

Amazing place just minutes from everything

Our stay was amazing. Clean, comfortable, and excellent communication with the hosts. Its an old house but nicely updated and super well thought through. We only needed to get essentials and everything else was provided. Probably had 50 towels lol and all appliances were new. The tub did have trouble not being scorching hot if it ran too long, but its florida. We just worked with it! Couldn't have asked for a better beach trip!
