The unit was spacious and had great light. We were able to reach the hosting team very easily. They were very efficientWe thought the balcony had ocean view when we booked (our mistake probably) but it was overlooking the street above. But then we could see the ocean from the kitchen window. Just top much noise early in the morning due to the garbage trucks etc. The amenities in the unit were great as well. Overall we were very happy to have stayed here.
