Negatives -
1. The tenants/owners downstairs were rude and unfriendly to our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 children (ages 6,4). The first night, they came up to ask us to be quiet (we were there a full 4 hours before they complained). The second night, they used a broom stick to knock-on the ceiling to tell us to be quiet. My children did not run around more or were louder than normal children. The remainder of our stay, we kept running into them with their rude glares.
2. Amtrak train comes by quickly but often.
3. Unit is right by the pool. Guaranteed pool and BBQ noise from 9am to 10pm daily. No central air conditioning so the windows were always open and could hear the the constant noises.
4. Noise from the CAT machinery maintenance garage.
5. WIFI will only allow 3 devices on it and it is as slow as dial-up.
6. Windows might be a safety hazard for smaller children. Since the windows have to be open to keep the unit cool, there is a real possibility for children to push out on the screen/window and fall out. The windows sit pretty low and is easy for kids to lean on when they look out to the pool area.
7. Faint urine smell from floor rugs.
8. This is a non-smoking property but people still smoke and it smells like it comes from the unit below.
With all of that said, it does not out weigh the positives of this unit.
1. Location - steps to the beach, steps to the harbor. Great place to rent boats, paddle boats to go exploring. Traffic will be dramatically more busy on the weekend.
2. Nice stain-less steel appliances - refrigerator, stove, dish washer.
3. Fully stocked kitchen to cook: pot, frying pans, etc. Clean new sponge is provided. However, a much needed item is a rice cooker.
4. New, clean white towels provided.
5. Shower head has a powerful sprout.
6. Close to Legoland, shopping.
7. Parking space for this unit (however, very tight squeeze).
