Jun 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Condo 651 We loved the condo but it was smaller then we thought it would be and the master bedroom did not get as cold as the rest of the condo. This was a problem for me cause I like a cold room at night. Thankfully they provide fans in the condo so I was able to set up two fans in our room to keep me cool. I loved that we could walk to the beach instead of having to drive and that there were plenty of food and stores within walking distance. The condo was clean and homey. It was a quiet complex. The only thing I didn’t like besides my room not getting cold was the elevator kept breaking down. This is def a problem that needs to be addressed. I have asthma and walking up six flights of stairs was really hard for me. ##### Maranda W. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### christopher n. Apr 1, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay with only one issue. Great time and view. Most of the furniture was great except the master bed. It curved to the middle. Would recommend getting a new bed for that room. Everything else was perfect! ##### christopher n. Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Stacy I. Oct 11, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beach was beautiful We really enjoyed our stay. Just didn't understand why such a small TV in master bedroom. Other than that WONDERFUL!!! That was why for the 4 star. Really love watching TV in bed!! ##### Stacy I. Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mary j. Aug 2, 2018 #### Very pretty and clean! Let vecthe view from the balcony! It was comfortable and roomy. The kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were surprisingly comfortable! Loved the cushionedbalcont chairs. The hot water wasn’t working when we got there but a handy neighbor found the breaker had tripped and got that going. Had one instance where the key wouldn’t open the front door but finally worked- maybe that needs looking at-I was almost in panic mode since we were returning from the beach with no car keys and no phone. Otherwise, easy to rent, comfortable and very nice. ##### Mary j. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tracie S. May 22, 2018 #### Wasn’t the worst but needs some up keep We did enjoy our stay. Room was very clean. It does need some up keep and repair. The door knob was aweful. It was lose and extremely hard to lock and unlock. Both toilets stayed stopped up. We finally got one to flush properly so we were limited to one toilet. There are a couple electrical outlets that would not work. Would we stay here again?? Probably so. Thank you for having us! ##### Tracie S. Stayed 4 nights in May 2018 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 4/10 Poor #### Sharon J., Crossville, TN Aug 3, 2017 #### Need better services No over fans in the rooms. Elevator didn't work half of the time an when it did, it bounced. No office or cleaning people on site. Had to check in 3 miles away. The room was clean when we arrived thank God. ##### Sharon J. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Silver Reef Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Silver-Reef-Casino-Resort.h16231932.Hotel-Information) > > [Shooting Star Casino & Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Thief-River-Falls-Hotels-Shooting-Star-Casino-Hotel.h28874246.Hotel-Information) > > [Canad Inns Destination Center Grand Forks](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Canad-Inns-Destination-Center-Grand-Forks.h1713856.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Desert-Springs-Resort-Spa.h17123.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Waikoloa Village](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Hilton-Waikoloa-Village.h19640.Hotel-Information) > > [Angel Of The Winds Casino Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Angel-Of-The-Winds-Casino-Resort.h9689970.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott's Shadow Ridge I-The Villages](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Marriotts-Shadow-Ridge.h853695.Hotel-Information) > > [Semiahmoo Resort Golf & Spa, Trademark Collection by Wyndham](https://www.expedia.ca/Bellingham-Hotels-Semiahmoo-Resort-Golf-Spa.h13986.Hotel-Information) > > [Bavarian Inn of Frankenmuth](https://www.expedia.ca/Saginaw-Hotels-Bavarian-Inn-Of-Frankenmuth.h9809515.Hotel-Information) > > [Seneca Allegany Resort & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Salamanca-Hotels-Seneca-Allegany-Resort-Casino.h2238839.Hotel-Information) > > [Isla Bella Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Marathon-Hotels-Isla-Bella-Beach-Resort-Spa.h24101706.Hotel-Information) > > [C'mon Inn Hotel & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Grand-Forks-Hotels-Cmon-Inn-Hotel-Suites.h1510580.Hotel-Information) > > [Great Wolf Lodge Sandusky OH](https://www.expedia.ca/Sandusky-Hotels-Great-Wolf-Lodge-Sandusky-OH.h1183594.Hotel-Information) > > [Darien Lake Lodge on the Lake](https://www.expedia.ca/Corfu-Hotels-Darien-Lake-Lodge-On-The-Lake.h13279584.Hotel-Information) > > [La Quinta Resort & Club, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-La-Quinta-Resort-Club.h10916.Hotel-Information) > > [The Brook at Turning Stone Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Utica-Hotels-Turning-Stone-Resort-And-Casino.h1684407.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Jasper](https://www.expedia.ca/Jasper-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Jasper.h1760121.Hotel-Information) > > [The Trail in Adams - Berkshires’ Art Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Adams-Hotels-Topia-Inn-An-Organic-Oasis.h12259511.Hotel-Information) > > [The Breakers Palm Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Beach-Hotels-The-Breakers-Palm-Beach.h8479.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Mobile](https://www.expedia.ca/Mobile-Hotels-Fairfield-Inn-Suites-By-Marriott-Mobile.h41871.Hotel-Information) > > [Six Flags Great Escape Lodge & Indoor Waterpark](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-George-Hotels-Six-Flags-Lodge-Indoor-Waterpark.h1385446.Hotel-Information) > > [Riviera Resort Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Margaritaville-Resort-Palm-Springs.h26011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Kings’ Land Waikoloa](https://www.expedia.ca/Waikoloa-Hotels-Kings-Land-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h2303745.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Orchid](https://www.expedia.ca/Kamuela-Hotels-Fairmont-Orchid.h25190.Hotel-Information) > > [Tulalip Resort Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Everett-Hotels-Tulalip-Resort-Casino.h2161524.Hotel-Information) > > [TownePlace Suites By Marriott Mobile](https://www.expedia.ca/Mobile-Hotels-TownePlace-Suites-By-Marriott-Mobile.h427522.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Desert Willow Villas, Palm Desert](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-The-Westin-Desert-Willow-Villas.h3304313.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Vacation Club at Desert Oasis](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-Welk-Resorts-Palm-Springs.h1140793.Hotel-Information) > > [Akwesasne Mohawk Casino Resort and Players Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hogansburg-Hotels-Akwesasne-Mohawk-Casino-Resort.h6009138.Hotel-Information) > > [Harrah’s Laughlin - A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.ca/Laughlin-Hotels-Harrahs-Laughlin-Hotel-Casino.h43310.Hotel-Information)
