Great for 1-2 people. It was a great location! Walking distance to so many great places, including the beach! Room was clean, easily manageable and convenient. Would stay here again.

Thank you for your kind review. We're glad the location worked well for you and that you found the space clean and convenient. We’d be happy to welcome you back anytime!
The place was clean and in the best location to walk to the beach, restaurants, and anywhere else. The place is smaller than I’m used to you but was good for 2 people. We enjoyed our stay.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback and delighted to know you enjoyed the property along with the nearby attractions.
I had a wonderful time with my husband. The location was convenient, as it was close to local restaurants, bars, and venues featuring live music. The accommodations provided all the amenities we needed for our stay. It was also a bonus that parking was included and that the property was situated near the beach and those aforementioned attractions.

The place is okay. For how cheap it is I should’ve known it wasn’t going to be very nice. The place was not clean when we checked in, the floors were dirty, there was a massive brown stain on the couch, and toothpaste around the bathroom sink. I had reached out and someone offered to come reclean the place which was the bare minimum. The pull out couch was disgusting. Food crumbs, rust, and who knows what else. We had to go get an air mattress, it also does NOT comfortably fit 4 people. The place is way smaller than it shows in pictures. Also everything is damp from the AC unit, and there’s no kitchen. Just a small fridge and a microwave

Met our needs
Overall, the property worked for our needs. Pictures make you think it’s bigger than it really is. Would not recommend sleeping 4 in this property, as the mattress on the pull out couch is not in good shape and would provide a bad night of sleep. Couch also had sand still on it from prior guests and sand still on the floor.
The room was ready in time. Had lots of sand still on the floor, but understand that’s a tuff one. There was a broken shelf that I had to doc with a note to the cleaner because I called and got no one and left a message and never heard back. Wire and sat box hanging down under TV in den. Didn’t want you to think that was us. No outlet to tell you about it. The ac in the place i is in the bedroom. Can not cool den. Very uncomfortable at night due to stuffy conditions. Other than that the stay was great. I would stay again.

More headaches than a vacation
This property is right across the street from public beach so everyone uses the property for parking. The bed in the condo is supposed to be a queen but it’s a full size (I measured). Had to email them to get into our condo only to get a code that wouldn’t work so then we had to call and get a different code. It was a hassle after another hassle. We will not return to this property and would not recommend it.
