The apartment looks as advertised. However, nowhere in the reviews did it mention that you can hear every noise from the stairwell. The stairwell is tile, meaning every step echoed, and we could hear every word of conversation. All of the apartment doors had a weird locking mechanism, such that in order to close it, you had to slam the door multiple times. Throughout the first night, we were scared awake by doors slamming at least 4 or 5 times. There was also construction going o next door, so if you weren't being scared by slamming doors or listening to a strangers' loud conversation, you were instead listening to hammers. It was so bad we spent 2 out of 3 nights in a hotel down the street. The location on the beach was great, everything else was not. We'll be attempting to get a refund though I doubt it will happen.
