Great location and welcoming setting
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo is in a great location for Gulf Shores. The view from the 6th floor was lovely. It was clean and easy check in and check out. It could use an update on bedroom mattresses, however. The provided bathroom towels were very thin and threadbare. The provided "bar" of soap was very small and lasted one day. We had no elevator problems and appreciated the security guards presence. Overall, we had a nice stay but the condo could use a bit of TLC. It was perfect for our three night stay.

Size of building was great. Not crowded Excellent location and security present at all times. The condo was clean but mattreses and towels definitely need to be updated. We booked this condo because it was available for a three night rental. The "bar" of provided soap was the size of a half dollar. Towels are threadbare and thin. I wouldn't use them as rags. Be sure to bring a good towel and bar of soap!

Liar liar pants on fire
The property was not what I expected. I called to assure there was a washer and dryer in the condo that we booked. I was told there is a laundry facility which cost 4 bucks to do a load wash/dry. The shams on my bed were dirty with someone else’s snot. We spent lots of time running and enjoying the beach. Also, we did not have enough towels for 6 people. Some of the plugs and lamps did not work. The best part of the place was a security guard named Dan. He was very helpful to recommend Daupin island, Mikee’s seafood, and Gulf Island Grill. Both places had excellent food. 655 was right by the elevator so you heard all the noise of everyone else coming and going.

Great view & location
It should’ve provided quality toiletries. Great location. Easy check in & check out process. It will be great to have blinders in the living room. Also, not dryer & washer machines inside the unit. That wasn’t clear enough when we booked.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our week long stay! Great location, stores and restaurants within walkable distance and you can’t beat being right on the ocean. Super easy checkin, was cleaned well upon arrival. Futon mattress was a bit thin and the mattress in the master room was a bit too soft in the middle, but we would definitely stay again! It’s what we expected of a budget friendly beach vacation.

Our End of summer family vacation
There was NO overflow parking, I got a citation twice, in less than 24 hours apart which I think is absolutely crazy because there was plenty of parking available and I had spoke with security more than once. If you are going to tell us to park in overflow parking then you need it available. Dishwasher didn’t work, dryer didn’t work. Every time we boiled water smoke alarm went off. Convenience was great.

Condo
Overall it was ok for an older condo. The bathrooms could use grab bars in the shower. The tub floor was slippery. Putting in the washer and dryer was a great convenience, but made it hard to get into the condo.
