It was a nice enough place to stay with my family. Positives first - It was a short walk to the beach. We walked to the beach every morning and most evenings. It was cold but beautiful. The house was clean and worked out great for our visit, so much better than 2 hotel rooms. It had dishes, pans and silverware. It had hot water on demand (a lovely feature!) and a garage. Now the minuses (mind you, I was too busy playing to take the time to inform the managers, so they may not even know some of this, and it obviously wasn't enough of an inconvenience that I did anything about it while I was there) - The bedroom set up is a little strange. The smaller bedroom with a queen bed has a massive bathroom and the bigger bedroom with the king bed has a very small bathroom. You can tell the back part is an addition. The addition slopes away from the main part and the floor feels, spongy kind of. There are 2 heat thermostats and while the one for the front of the house worked, the one for the back barely did. We had to turn the thermostat for the front of the house way up so that it would heat the back bedroom. Every bed pillow was as flat as a pancake, hard and uncomfortable. I had to use one of the couch's decorative pillows to sleep on. Also, the blinds in the back bedroom are not room darkening, and several of the neighbors left their lights on all night. If you need it dark, I suggest a sleeping mask. The stand up lamp has no on or off switch, so you have to plug it in or unplug it to have it work. The overhead ceiling fan light wouldn't come on, so you had to walk to the end of the bedroom to turn on the bedside lamp. No dressers, just 2 night stands w/2 drawers, and one of them was full of spider webs, so I really didn't want to put my clothes in there. No hangers in the bedroom either, just the fold out bed. The shower head in the small bathroom didn't work properly, so you had a little spray and a lot of water that just kind of ran down the shower hose, regardless of what setting you put in on. The hairdryer blew tepid air (not warm) and the heat setting in the small bathroom just blew cold air on you.
The table bench cushion has no cushion, very uncomfortable, we just kind didn't use that one bench. While those things were a bother, they really didn't dampen our mood too much and the house was cute, served our purpose and we were grateful for the opportunity to stay all together in one place but still have space to get away from each other! :)
