I took my Mom, sister and nieces to stay at Maria's property and found it to be just as advertised. Every room has views of the ocean, two with French doors leading to the balcony where one can enjoy people watching in this bustling area. It is directly across from the beach where you can rent chairs and there are many good restaurants in the area. It is really well located near even more shops and restaurants in the harbor area a block away and within 1/2 mile to the historic area and major museums. In short, the location couldn't be better. The beds and seating areas were comfortable and clean. The kitchen and baths seemed updated not too long ago. Maria met us to check us in and communicated very well all along the way. The building and whole area felt very safe. The clothes washing machine was a big plus. I wouldn't call it luxurious, but this property is well maintained and a great value for the money. I highly recommend it and would stay there again in a heartbeat.
