When we arrived the keypad wouldn't work. We had to drive around until we had cell reception to call the managers. Fortunately it wasn't pouring rain. When we entered we were hit with the smell. When we saw the condition of the rental we immediately drove to Netarts and bought Clorox wipes to wipe down every counter surface. We washed and sanitized all dishes and silverware we thought we'd be using and left them in the dishwasher to stay clean.
The carpet is cheap, worn and stained
For watching TV, there's a filthy cheap futon to sit on. After seeing that we completely avoided the downstairs.
What look like paw prints are on the sliding glass door with the broken lock.
Heater in master bedroom is not working.
The washing machine would only fill with 2 or 3 inches of water.
There are lights that don't work.
Lamp in master bedroom is falling apart.
Cheapest of cheap fixtures, furniture, beds, appliances and towels. This stuff looked like it was purchased from Goodwill.
Dingy and old refrigerator
Dirty windows and most of them were unlocked.
TV console looks like it hasn't been dusted in ages.
Enough laundry and dishwasher soap for only 4 loads
Drawers and cupboards have no liners and are stained.
Kitchen floor was half swept and sticky next to microwave.
Living room only has a 3 person sofa to sit on. The TV room has a filthy futon and 2 cheap chairs.
We found a card that said it had been inspected after cleaning and we laughed. "Inspected for what, dirty film on the windows!" This place is not worth what we paid for 2 nights. And, it takes a lot of gall to charge for a cleaning fee when the job is done half-assed. We have used Homeaway several times and have had amazing places to stay that cost less. This was the only one that has ever disappointed us. We will never rent anything that Ocean Beach Vacations manages again. If you're not a frequent traveler, have a large group with kids or have low standards, then you won't mind this place. I'm giving it 2 stars because it was quiet and the wifi worked okay in the living room. We stayed away from this place as much as we could. It didn't ruin our vacation but we did not enjoy the 2 nights we spent here.
