Cozy and cute stay close to the beach

Overall, I'd enjoyed my stay here. Pros: The apartment was clean, comfortable and had all the necessities to get through. It was close to the beach and had a nice front sitting area with a view of the water. Cons: There wasn't much initial communication with the property owner. I had to reach out upon arrival to ask how to access the property (i.e. key placement and lockbox code), where to park, and receive WIFI information. None of that information was provided in advance. There was also no warning that the apartment was located up a steep and narrow staircase. This is necessary information for those with mobility issues and should have been referenced in the listing. Also, the access to the beach was blocked as it was under construction. The street in front and the view were blocked. I understand that the owner can't help public construction but someone looking for a beach vacation would feel cheated if that is blocked during their stay.
