Pros:
- great location: 1 block from the beach, close to restaurants and shops. Great location to watch New Year’s Eve fireworks
- Has everything (except the items below)
Cons:
- toilet in master bedroom smells like sewage
- smelly pillow
- no shampoo or body wash on arrival. Had to ask host many times to convince host to send it same day instead of next day, even though we notified them as soon as we arrived (~4pm)!
- no laundry detergent: reported at check-in but had to remind host again a few times and didn’t get it until 3rd day
- no daily bread basket as described in listing. Pointed out to host a few times but they still didn’t deliver one the whole time, despite promising to do so
- The only mitigating factor is that we stayed there around New Year’s Eve. However, businesses around the apartment seemed to be operating as usual until late on New Year’s Eve
- communication: generally responsive and was able to address main issues eventually, but took way too much effort each time
