Someone tried to break in our room on Sunday night of our stay . If we hadn’t had the chain across , he would have ended up our room. What is the purpose of the key pad? Also they were down to one working elevator on Memorial Day . There is 15 floors with probably over 1500 people staying there. There were people screaming and yelling all hours of the night . The shower had mold in it .

Not to happy
Had made the Summit my go to for vacation until this trip. Hap to pay for parking pass, visitors had trouble by guard letting they have a day pass and room was not totally clean. Floors were NASTY, The unopened toilet paper was wet. Unsure if I will stay at The Summit. I come to PCB 2 times a year due to having grandchildren living there.

The fact that the property was right off the ocean was the best part. We had a beautiful view of the ocean from the condo. It was also really close to everything you need. Lots of entertainment, shopping and 15 minutes to St. Andrews park and the pier. Was very disappointed with the cleanliness. The floors were dirty, the bathroom facilities were old and missing grout in the shower, the appliances are out of date also. The elevator rarely worked and taking 10 flights of stairs wasn't fun. They say there's a gym, but when we were there in May 2021 we were told there was a fire in Nov 2020 and they weren't even starting renovations.

Our property was very outdated with old dirty furniture. The elevators were horrible . They very seldom worked and we had to walk to the 10 th floor several times. The kitchen was very nice but there wasn’t many kitchen utensils available. We would not stay there again and it was crazy overpriced!

Elevator Problems
The condo was clean and comfortable.The lady that checked us in forgot to give us the code to get in the room, but the Maintenance guy was very nice to us and let us in our room and contacted the lady to get her to text us the code. The only other problem was that the elevators on our side of the building weren't working. This caused a lot of traffic at the ones that were working, and they were noisy and didn't inspire a lot of confidence in me.
