The location is definitely the best feature of this property! The beds were comfortable; the decor was cheerful and comfortable; and the owners were very nice - although we were a bit taken aback when one entered the unit shortly after our arrival without a mask and without maintaining distance.
WiFi only works in half the apartment and is spotty in the other half. The modem and router seem to be located off site, but the signal is not reliable enough for remote working or virtual learning.
The apartment was mostly clean when we arrived although ceiling fans and baseboards clearly had not been touched in a while and we found an unwashed, crusty broiler pan in the oven.
The bathroom and kitchen need renovating; appliances are old, rusty, and quirky; paint is peeling; and some floor tiles are broken. The stove doesn’t cook evenly, and the freezer door pops open every time the fridge door is open or closed. The kitchen lacks some basics, ie cutting board, baking sheet, vegetable peeler. The bathroom sink runs non-stop with a steady trickle, and water pressure in the shower is low.
Sadly, we were unable to fully enjoy the best feature - the porch and its amazing views -- because a hurricane the previous week had damaged one of the columns and it was no longer strapped to the porch so the corner closest to the ocean and the lake was unsafe.
