I was immediately texted after booking with a “free upgrade” to a larger condo, this should have been a red flag. The space we were “upgraded” to did not have a functioning tub, so I asked to move. We were moved to a different condo, still not my original reservation: the space we moved in to also did not have a functioning tub, the cold water knob is literally coming out of the tile and the knob just spins but water does not come on, the heat does not work, there are no extra blankets in the rooms, and the bathroom window does not close. This is not a rentable space. Do not stay here with your family. It was clean but you can not shower and you can not sleep without blankets. I called the host and she explained the shower was from hurricane damage. I asked about the cold temperature and she informed me that the air was warm enough. I asked about blankets and she said there are extra in the closets (there are none). I asked about the bathroom window, and again, she said it is hurricane damage. I asked why she felt this space was rentable and her explanation was “there is another rental down the street for $400 a night. This isn’t the Ritz Carlton.” I explained that the Ritz Carlton is only great if you can shower and sleep there, you know, with blankets. I asked her to consider a refund and she told me I should have complained upon check-in, which was approximately 11pm.

Alma the maid is wonderful. She keeps it spotless and the cleanliness and location are perfect. Bed is comfy and room is clean! Really clean..I always wear slippers in hotel rooms because the floors are never clean enough, but in this room you can have bare feet! The cons.. there are no bikes and no beach chairs. No coffee in room available even though a coffee maker. Microwave and fridge worked. But coffee is necessary. I would def stay again because of location cleanliness.

Upon arrival we found the bathroom floor so wet we had to dry it with one of the clean towels to prevent slipping. There were multiple flying bugs due the moisture in room. The TV would not turn on nor the air conditioner. Upon texting the property manager received a snippy response about tv and they managed to get air working. When we returned later the air was out again. Several texts back and forth I was told they were working on the matter. Never had air return and slept uncomfortable the remainder of the night.

Location is excellent. Typical "beach" property that needs updating. The bed was a large, comfortable king size. The circuit breaker for the heater tripped off.

The location of this property is perfect to go to St. Armand’s and Lifo Beach. The owner is not easy to contact and response is not perfect. We booked this place knowing it had wifi so we could work and we were never able to connect! Owner said they would stop by but was never fixed.

I booked this room because it was close to the beach and it was advertised as clean and affordable. When I arrived it was dirty. There were ants infesting the entire place and no one on site to help. I was offered another room which was just as bad- these rooms are worth $50-60 per night.

This property was in a flood. You can see the flood water lines on the walls. I was just in a flood 2 months ago. It still smells like the flood in here. The tv only has 1 channel, the fridge is going to fall out of the wooden cabinet that is badly damaged from water, and the bathroom sink doesn't drain. This should have not been rented out until the drywall was ripped out. I have plenty of photos to back up my statements.

Overall the property is well maintained, the only small issue was that the small TV in the living room had a remote control that needed new batteries. But besides that, the property met my expectations and I did enjoy a good night sleep on the second floor.

Some things could use sprucing up, especially the outdoor sitting area. The furniture was kind of beat, but the bed was very comfortable. The staff was very friendly. Location was great, on a quiet street, close to the beach, shopping and dining. Great price! I'd stay again.
