Reviewer Comments:
I have been visiting Seaside with my family since 1990. This particular stay was a birthday gift from my husband. This is a nice house but has many issues that need addressing. Upon our arrival, we noticed the living room rug was filthy (thank goodness no small children were with us) and the chairs were stained. The upstairs bathroom ceiling had black mold growing on the ceiling and there was a wet, musty smell. While I appreciated the 2 AC window units in the upstairs bedroom to keep cool, the tape around them was peeling off, leaving gaps between the units and windows, and the vents in the ceiling were dripping with condensation, one of them directly onto the bed. The only screened porch, also upstairs, had no furniture to sit on except a hammock that was lying on the could not be hung because the hook was out of the wall. There were 3 brooms, but no dust pan and no vacuum...even though we removed shoes before entering the house each day, there was still a good bit of sand that accumulated on the floors. I had to take the smaller rugs outside to shake them out and then sweep as much as I could out of the doors. There were only 4 washcloths (for a 3 bedroom house) and no sharp knives (not dull...nonexistent) or scissors to cut tags off items we purchased. The upstairs hairdryer that I only used once, shot out sparks and burned the pajama top I was wearing at the time. I could go on about the state of a lot of the wood outside the house, but that thankfully did not directly affect our stay. For the price we paid to stay in this house, however, we not only deserved basic amenities, but we also deserved a house that was in good, clean condition. I unfortunately would not recommend this house to anyone unless there are some major changes. Owning a rental house requires upkeep and this one just isn't getting the attention it needs. I have never had this situation with any other house in Seaside. Very disappointing.
