Family week

My son (18), myself and my parents stayed for a week. The place was exactly as advertised and very clean. We used the community pool, which was well maintained. 4 stars because garbage disposal (smell)and hot tub (chlorine so strong it burned throats) both had issues but maintenance was wonderful and responded promptly so we could fully enjoy the property. Location was wonderful. Would recommend having a sofa bed couch. Two people sharing second bedroom is tight.

Not up to par

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was big enough and had a well stocked kitchen and good washer and dryer. The floors in the downstairs were not clean and the porch was really dirty. We would have swept it bit we couldn’t find a broom. Our biggest complaint is that the microwave was broken the entire week. They could have brought us a temporary replacement to use, but they didn’t. We were surprised how often we usually use a microwave. It was really inconvenient. Location is great but the condo should have been.cleaner. It’s a lot of money to rent and not be in the best condition. We would not rent it again.

Very nice stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the second time we have stayed at the Truman Annex. The location is central to all of the Fantasy Fest activities. The condo was very well maintained and furnished. The only reason we did not give it a 5 star rating was the advertised hot tub. It barely sat 2 people and even then very snugly. We were a group of 4. The hot tub was the deciding point between this condo and others so the size was disappointing.

Disappointing Stay – Poor Communication & Misleading Listing

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unfortunately, our stay was very disappointing — both the unit and the rental company’s responsiveness. Upon arrival, the lockbox code provided didn’t work. I left voicemails and called the emergency number, but no response. After 45 minutes, I noticed a text from earlier in the day saying they’d given me the wrong code. It worked, but the lack of communication in real time was frustrating. I didn’t get a return call until after I was inside the unit. Then came issues with the parking. The directions were vague and didn’t explain how spaces were labeled. It took another 20–30 minutes of driving around and more calls before someone returned my call and apologized. By then, we had already figured it out. The unit itself did not match the online listing. Extra furniture made the space feel cramped. The master deck had no awning, and I nearly fell stepping out due to an unmarked drop. The lower patio wasn’t as shown online — instead of the nice wicker set with an umbrella, there was a plastic resin patio table and chairs with those rubber straps, no umbrella, and a neglected, messy outdoor space with dead plants and debris. The hot tub looked clean, but the jets spit out debris when turned on, so I didn’t use it. Rain kept us from using the uncovered patios. Inside, things weren’t much better. The showers were extremely tight, even for a petite person like myself. The sheets were stained and had hair on them that wasn’t ours. After our initial experience with poor communication, I didn’t bother calling again. The stairs to the upper floor bedrooms had no handrail for the first several feet and probably not suitable for children or older adults. Positives? The location was perfect — quiet, convenient, and the A/C worked great. But overall, this was the most unpleasant rental we've had. We actually ended up leaving two days early-We paid too much for what we got. I doubt we
