A well maintained grand dame
Ok. I will attempt to separate fact from opinion here as I had a personal hiccup with management and you decide. I’ll say in advance, it was minor but annoying.
First the property. It’s lovely, period. A bit older, but well maintained. The kitchen was one of the best laid out and appointed with accessories. The beds were comfortable and bathrooms all functional. Plenty of linen. It’s a quiet property close to the beach.
So here’s my beef. I was recovering from an illness an and leaving a hotel with 1 pm check out. There was no one at the property immediately prior to us, so it was ready. I asked to check in a few hours early and management was fine with it at 25$: hour. Ok. We paid it. Then came multiple text and email to take out the trash bins, then bring them back. Hmm, why did I pay a management fee and cleaning fee again?
We had one friend who slept over two nights and three different couples who came at different times for dinner and left. I was reminded there’s a limit to 8 people on the property ( I’ve stayed in Encinitas and leucadia for years, never told there was a limit to people ON a property). We never had more than four.
As I said annoying but not critical. The managers, if asking a tenant to do work, should have comped a few hours and been all the bigger for it.
