House has modern looking exterior and great location. There was always street parking in front of the house when we were there. Although you do have to move your car for street cleaning on Fridays. It is within walking distance to many restaurants, shops, and convenience stores. It is right across from the canals and a couple minutes walk to the beach. There are bikes and kayaks for rental right outside.
The kitchen and common areas were clean, except for some crumbs on the couch. Also our beds were not made and the bathroom was not cleaned prior to our arrival. One of the bed sheets had a child's hand print on it. The bath rug in the restroom was filthy. We tried contacting the hostess via phone call, text, airbnb messaging for 2 hours without response. When she finally responded, she apologized profusely and said she was in a meeting but would send someone over ASAP to clean. She even refunded us one night's stay because it took another 2 hours for the cleaning to be completed. Luckily, we were able to occupy ourselves with shops and restaurants nearby. Even after the cleaning, dirty bath rug was still there, so we had to put a beach towel over it . The bed sheets were replaced, but the comforters did not smell like they were just freshly laundered. There were "clean" towels that were old, discolored, and stained. She did have the housekeeper bring over some better looking towels the next morning.
We appreciate the hostess's response and offering/fulfilling refund. Self check-in and self check-out was really easy. We loved the location. We would just have appreciated it if the place were cleaned prior to our arrival. We would also appreciate new towels and bath rugs.
