We have stayed here before and knew what to expect in terms of needing to provide basically everything for our stay, and I mean EVERYTHING, such as toilet paper, kitchen sponge, paper towel, etc. The layout of the unit along with the two bathrooms and kitchen are great; however, the owners clearly don’t put in the care necessary to keep the unit from feeling run down and sad. They have added new “used” furniture and decore, which in theory would be a good thing. Unfortunately, almost all of the additions don’t make sense. For example, in the upstairs loft bedroom a sofa was added that blocks the closet. I was unable to open the only closet until I shimmed the sofa a couple of feet. They also rearranged the vanity in the bathroom and the new dresser in its place made no sense and blocked a much needed outlet. In the downstairs bedroom the additional furniture has ended up overcrowding the room and has made it extremely difficult to walk and get to the closet. On the upside, there was a new sofa in the living room which made family time much better than it had been in past years. Also, there is a nice sitting area outside, but an umbrella would make it even better.
Parking at this accommodation is always a problem. However, the location is pretty good. There is a mini golf course, some nice food establishments, Kohrs ice cream, Fudge Kitchen, and the beach is only one block away. The only downside about the location is that it is a bit of a distance from Washington Square.
