8/10
Location was a 20 minute walk from downtown St. Augustine and a 10 minute walk to restaurants/venues with live music, which was great. Price was very fair for the condition/size/location of the condo. Inclusion of kayaks and bikes and lovely pool area were reasons we chose this rental. Condo was clean (except for grill, which seemed long-neglected). View from balcony and patio were disappointing--lots of chainlink fencing--not as pictured in listing.I don't want to run through the laundry list of issues for which we had to communicate with the manager (most inconvenient: leaking kayak which per neighbor "filled up with water when the last guest tried to use it," bike locks were missing, MBR tub clogged, construction materials and workers all around the pool area and in the designated parking space). Communication with owner--yes, he was very responsive--but the bottom line is that there were too many issues that would have not happened if the owner was local or if he employed a property manager to inspect the property between bookings. Example: The owner told us the day we were to arrive that he "just found out" about the unusable kayak and asked us to purchase another (he did reimburse us and gave us 100 for our trouble) and also asked us to dispose of the damaged kayak because he does not live in the area or have anyone to handle these issues. Lesson learned: ask before booking if owner/manager is local.
