We had a wonderful week with our whole family (including our elderly pup)! The rental is the 3rd and 4th floors of an older house, with a huge, partially covered porch on the second floor (from which you enter unit, into a small foyer/landing, before climbing stairs to bedroom areas on 3rd floor.)
We walked a lot, enjoying the beach, boardwalk, downtown, and even a trek over the 9th St bridge! Loved the convenience and neighborhood.
We found the unit to be in good order and pretty clean. It's an old house converted into several units, with fresh paint, comfortable beds and sofas/futons, and newer covers/pillows throughout. The longer-term renters on 1st and 2nd floors were friendly and helpful. We were able to use the washer/dryer easily. Our older dog struggled with the steps a bit (there are many, and they are painted wood, so a bit slippery for his old guy paws), but we just leashed him at the top and helped him navigate slowly and cautiously! There are breaks between floors and the humans were easily able to manage, lol. The outside shower and hose
were not working, but we loved the unit and will return. Grateful to be able to bring our pup along! Reminded me of college days, with the funky, converted old house. :)
A supplies/packing note (as of 7/24): no dishwasher; small microwave; few forks (but plenty of other kitchenware/pots/utensils); kitchen towels provided; some hand soap, dish soap, and bath products provided; salt/pepper there, and we left some spices.
