Communication between the property manager and I, prior to our arrival in Traverse City, was excellent. Once we arrived, I texted him here and there about suggestions for local restaurants and sites. I received prompt, friendly, and informative texts in return. My husband, 17-year-old daughter, and I were very impressed with the fresh condo and the view of Traverse Bay from our two balconies! Having separate bedrooms and bathrooms was nice as well. We washed our clothes in the in-home washer and dried them as well. The kitchen was very large and clean. The location was very easy to get in and out of and so close to town.
I was aware of what was asked of us as far as cleaning: strip the beds, hang wet towels, etc. It was funny though, when further instructions were added the day before leaving, such as turning on the dishwasher, putting the sheets in the washer and starting the cycle, and rounding up garbage and taking it down to the dumpster. We didnât mind, but had to chuckle. The only drawback would be the guest above us who stomped across their floor (our ceiling) continually from about 6 pm to 11:30 pm then again starting at 6 am. What could they have possibly been doing? It sounded like Shrek was up there! Hopefully they were only temporary guests and that doesnât happen regularly!
