Glen Cove Home: Walk to Boardwalk + Dining!

Reviews

• 5/5

  The apartment is impeccably clean, so comfortable and spacious. I was staying for an event in the next town and everything we needed was within a six minute drive but still felt away from busy roads and it was very quiet. Check in was the easiest ever. Highly recommend this property.

• Clean and convenient

  4/5

  The duplex was as pictured. It had so much space, which was wonderful for our family of four. The check-in was seamless and the place had obviously been professionally cleaned, which I appreciated.

  As other reviewers have mentioned, the instructions say there are two steps leading to the door, but they don’t mention a whole flight of stairs you have to ascend when you open the door in order to get to the apartment. It wasn’t a problem for us, but they should update the listing so people are aware. It could be a problem for some.

  Also. The master bedroom is in serious need of new pillows and a new set of sheets. The pillows are flat and the sheets all ball-y and uncomfortable. I almost stopped at a store to buy some myself. I should have messaged the host to see if they had another set we could use but we got busy with other activities and I forgot about it…. Until it was time to sleep again and I had to slither into the rough sheets again. Just a $50 upgrade would have elevated the master bed experience completely.

  Overall, we were very happy and would stay here again.

  One other note. I was nervous that being on the top floor would be hot (we were staying during a heat wave) but the AC worked perfectly and we were very comfortable. :)

  Thanks!

  Manager's Response:

  From the owner: "I’m glad you were satisfied with the stay. We rely on our cleaning staff to let us know the status of things. They have never mentioned anything about the pillows, but we’ll take care of that as soon as possible."

• Nice Place to Stay

  5/5

  We enjoyed staying at this property. We were five adults staying at this property during our stay. There was enough room of all of us to be comfortable. The property was clean, has a nice location, and was quiet. Check in was very easy and it was not a problem that we arrived late at night. We were impressed with this property and we would consider staying there again.The only thing I would make sure future guests are aware of is that this is the second story of a house, so you need to climb a flight of stairs to enter the property. This was not a problem for us, but we did see other reviews where this was an issue. If the stairs are not an issue for you, I would highly recommend this property.

• Nice Stay for what we needed

  4/5

  There are PROS and CONS to every rental. I have listed them below.PROS: location was good for what we needed, 3 (very plain, no frills) bedrooms, kitchen was equipped, clean except for a few random black ants, they had plenty of good paper towels and toilet paper, there were extra bath towels, and the area was very quiet which was nice.CONS: The pillows sucked, the beds are full/double size(not queens), There are 10 steep stairs to get up to the apartment, there is only 1 TV in the living room and the sound did not work, there were not enough garbage bags for 4 people for 5 days.We would stay here again, but would bring our own pillows and garbage bags.

• Great space and location with a few things missing

  4/5

  Overall, the unit was spacious and very clean. The location was great. Close to town and our relatives. It was nice having a full kitchen to prep a few meals. There a few things that the owners could provide that would have made the stay more comfortable. Most importantly, a toaster should be pretty much standard in a rental that has a full kitchen. A couple other items that would have been nice small spoons (teaspoons), serving utensils, a couple extra place settings (dishes and utensil), and a fan.
