The condo was very clean, well equiped kitchen, living room furniture was a little dated. All bedrooms are up-staires, and had T.V.'S. And ceiling fans. The only thang that was not mentioned in the ad was that the condo is on the 3rd floor and you had to walk up 6 flight of stairs, there is no elevator, I thought that should have been mentioned,so that was not good gor me with a knee that i had surgery on.

This unit is really in need of a deep clean and air circulation. It smells wet and musty. The fans that work are covered in dust and overall just felt and looked dirty. The kitchen was barely equipped to get by. Lucky for us, there were only three people staying because there were literally only three forks available. No pots to use, only frying pans. We come to PCB twice a year and unfortunately, this is not a place I would stay in again.

The perfect little spot!

This place was perfect for our family of 6. If i had to change anything it would just be newer tv's in the bedrooms so you can sign into your Netflix or other streaming apps. However it has cable and your at the beach so it was fine for us! Thanks nikki for responding immediately when i reached out.

So held off on this a bit. Waited to see something of a better response out of host but got nothing and now reimbursement so here goes : Fleas + Satins on beds + Build up of dirt in a lot of spots + We checked in seemed just a tad run down but planned to tough it out. Pullout bed had stains so kids slept on couch one of them slept on upstairs bed. Next morning he had bites on him we checked for bedbugs and did not see any guesses maybe from somewhere else looked like flea bites. Next day went ok but then second morning more bites. When we got back that afternoon we decided it was best for us to relocate we alerted host and left only half way through stay. No offers to make it right and a message back asking if we had pictures of fleas and saying it was a satin on bed not urine….. Well there you go hope you have better luck then we did.
