The house is located close to the beach, but unfortunately, it is also very close to a major road, which creates significant traffic noise. The noise made it difficult to enjoy the outdoor deck and relax peacefully.The cleanliness of the house was also disappointing. There was a substantial amount of dust underneath the beds and couches, suggesting that these areas had not been properly cleaned for some time. The first level, which fortunately we did not need to use, was damp and had a noticeable moldy smell. I would not want to sleep in this conditions The house is also not particularly suitable for families with young children or for older guests.While the host was responsive to messages, the communication felt overly intrusive. The host wanted to arrange repairs during our stay, which interrupted our ability to rest and enjoy our vacation.Finally, the handling of the beach badges was particularly frustrating. The badges were returned to the owner’s real estate agent, and this was confirmed. Despite that confirmation, the host is still proceeding with additional charges related to the badges in excessive amount to boot Overall, while the proximity to the beach is a positive, the noise, cleanliness issues, damp/moldy conditions, interruptions during the stay, and continued charges after the beach badges were returned significantly affected our experience. Definitely is off my return to list location .
