Very disappointed

We arrived on Friday to find the toilet, wifi, and tv's weren't working. I notified the property management team a few times via their text communication that was recommended then was told to call a 800 number. I asked for someone to call me regarding the issues and several hours later on Saturday finally received a call. They decided to send over maintenance later Saturday night without notifying me then left a note saying they couldn't enter because we weren't there. So I had to reach out again and told them how disappointed I was and so they asked for a good time on Sunday night to stop by. Since we were leaving on Monday am I said it was too late. The place wasn't in the best condition with mold in the bathroom and poor beds along with wifi, tv, and a broken toilet but the most disappointing part was the lack of customer service from the property management team.

Great place!

We had originally booked a different rental for our trip to Corolla, but had major issues when we first arrived leaving us with nowhere to stay! Thank goodness we found this place and it was available the next day! Such a nice, roomy, clean space perfect for our family! It was a short drive to the beach and had plenty of restaurants/shops close by! 100% recommend!
