Christmas Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time visiting Friday Harbor for Christmas! The rental/property were just perfect for what we had planned. The location is close to town and the ferry, making this a great place for those walking on, while the oversized parking lot makes it great for driving in as well. We would 100% book with SJPM again and again!

Too overpriced for sub-par room

This was an upstairs studio/attic room called the Miner's Room, and, frankly, it looked like a low class place underground workers would go to for a short sleep before hitting the mines again. Examples: - The windows were small, didn't open far enough to cool in a hot summer (no a/c). - The kitchenette was 1970s style with formica and vinyl everywhere. Fridge and microwave were itry bitty. - Furniture was decrepit. Table was falling apart, armoir could only hold clothes if they went in the wrong way, drawers wouldn't slide right / fell off. These weren't antique, they were low class thrift store quality. - Throw rug over the vinyl floor was threadbare and very dirty. Bedclothess looked 20 years old - tattered and faded color. - Bathroom was smallest we've ever had, maybe under 20 sq ft? Motel 6 would've been a big step up. Hot water heater and cleaner stuff were behind the thinnest of curtains was not very clean. - TV was a joke. My computer monitor at home was a much better quality.

Family gathering

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Warm sleeping especially in the “extra” area. We did not have a car, so this spot was perfect for walking to the Jolly Trolly, shopping and restaurants.
