This condo and the entire condo complex has certainly seen better days. the elevator does not go all the way down to the ground floor so to get our stuff up to what we thought was a first floor condo, my mom and I had to borrow and old rusty shopping cart hanging out by the front of the building, pile our stuff in it, and roll it up a winding ramp. The condo inside was clean but we were not prepared for my mom to have to sleep in a bunkbed as that is not what is pictured in the listing. Several of the lights had no bulbs or were burned out and our coffee maker stopped working after the first day. The property manager was responsive and did get a a new coffee maker that same day. Access to the beach was very handy and the area itself is a nice part of North Topsail with less crowded and clean beaches. This condo could really use a face lift, inside and out, including updated tiling, new grout, new shower, new mattresses, etc. The little balcony was charming and was a great place to sit out and listen to the waves and see the ocean. I would probably spend a little more money next time and stay somewhere that was more updated and less shabby, but again, the property was clean and the beach access was ideal.
