8/10 Good
"The condo was nice and clean and location was great. Our only complaint was that it smelled so strongly of mildew that we could smell it on ourselves after leaving the unit. After only three nights, we got home and had to wash all our clothes because everything in our bags smelled like mildew. Bummer."
