Great Girls Weekend
Great location. We were able to walk everywhere, which we love to do. Comfortable and enough bathrooms for 7 women. However, the shower pressure was extremely low, was difficult to rinse off soap and the bathroom amenities could be improved such as better soaps and tissues. The Wifi did not work well. This did not stop us from having an amazing time. The property manager was extremely responsive and very nice. We all truly enjoyed ourselves here.

Not well maintained, but great location
Room for improvement: We got in at 11pm and needed to use the restroom. So our first impression, was going to open door to bathroom and finding a dirty floor (hair still on it) with a dead cockroach or palmetto bug laying on its back, so we assume had been dead at least a day or two before our arrival. The living room has a Sputnik light where it holds 10+ light bulbs, yet only one bulb actually worked. One of the downstairs king bedrooms, had an adult toy hanging on the back of the door which we assume was left behind from previous renter. But that then tells us, door wasn’t shut for cleaners to clean behind if they didn’t see it themselves. We alerted property host, with no reply. Downstairs beds were very comfortable and air felt great. Downstairs rooms had sound machines provided (which was needed bc of it being close to Main Street). Those who stayed downstairs slept great. Upstairs receives basically no air, so slept hot. And the two who slept upstairs didn’t sleep well any of the nights there. One of 2 bathrooms upstairs, also had dirty floor. Overhead lighting sucked upstairs, so you definitely had to use the lamps to see around the room. I discovered the last morning that one of the rooms upstairs bedspread had what looked to be a dried up/very hardened snot loogie on it. If they improved cleanliness & air circulation upstairs we would consider staying here again.
Positive: location was great!! We enjoyed walking to Bad Bunny for coffee each morning.
