We knew this unit was on the upper level but we got weary of climbing the three flights of stairs.
Upon arrival the unit had an odor to it. So I washed all the bathroom rugs; sponge-mopped all the tile floors with PineSol and used Murphy Soap on the rest. Then I scrubbed down and cleaned all the countertops in the kitchen/bathrooms and scrubbed the two toilets etc…I also used Fabreeze on the one, hallway rug and the fabric, swivel chairs.
I am VERY picky about cleanliness and this unit was lacking in that department. When our daughter came for a visit, she noticed the pillows had an odor (guest room) so I ended up buying two, new pillows; case covers and pillow covers.
Having just stayed two weeks at a unit in Evian down the road, I was disappointed with this Shelter Cove condo. Evian was so well-appointed with new pots/pans; many new appliances to use for cooking in; a great, clean grill for cooking out; etc..
This Shelter Cove condo was old and tired-in great need of a major reno. There were many stains in the carpet in the front room; the outside porch needed cleaning and the seat cushions on the porch chairs were dirty. The tile floor in the kitchen was chipped and old and I shudder to think what I’d find if I pulled out the refrig. The microwave looked new and worked well.
The chairs around the dining room table were made of rattan and some were seriously wobbly enough that we were afraid they might collapse. The two swivel chairs were comfortable. The covered garage was a joke. It was much shorter in length and narrower in width than all of the other garages. Once parked, it was nearly impossible for anyone to get in OR out of the car on either side. Regardless of the myriad of issues we encountered with the unit, the management was easy to reach; extremely helpful and accommodating!
