Pleasant but smelled like smoke

The property building needs major cosmetic work. But the room it’s self was nice and pleasant except for the fact it smelled like smoke. I did notify property owner, she was very fast with responses. She told us to make sure filter was on, upon trying to turn filter on it was not working. The filter needed to be replaced and there were no extra, so for 5 days we had the unpleasant smell of smoke in the room.

Would NEVER stay there again....even if you paid

Although the check in process was fairly easy, getting in the door waa not. The door has a code (which we were given) however no instruction on how to use the key pad to open or lock it. We did figure it out. We arrived on Thurs evening after a descent ride i wanted to take a shower and the water was cold so i let it run for about 10 minutes and tried again. Nope still cold. Gave up. Got up Friday morning and tried again. Nope still wouldnt get hot. I contacted the owner and she stated to me that the water temp is 95 and that is sufficient. It was 60 outside and she said because it comes from the roof it would only get to 95. Thats less than body temp. I told her that was unacceptable. She said she couldnt get anyone until later that evening. Again not acceptable. I understand it was the day after a holiday however as a homeowner that rents the.property out it is her responsibility to have it checked out. Explained to her we would cut our loss for the one night we stayed and we would be leaving to pleaae refund us. She said "no". We were not going to wait since we could not a shower. We didn't come on vacation to spend time in a room to wait until it could/couldnt be fixed. So we ended up having to get a hotel room which is not an additional expense we expected. I understand things come up and sometimes it may take a little bit to get fixed. HOWEVER, when you are on vacation you don't to waste your time.

We enjoyed our stay for the most part.

It was ok...I would call it a hotel before I called it a condo, we were disappointed as far as that, also there was one set of bathroom towels, and we actually had to wash them before we used them ( they stunk to put it lightly) so I'd recommend an extra set and also an extra blanket in the living quarters. We were told there was construction, however we wasnt told there wasnt an exit to the beach or that the pool would be closed... other than those few minor things it was a good stay.
