Steven is a great host and his apartment was very comfortable. True to other reviews, he had a refreshing, cold Corona waiting in the fridge and great recommendations for great local restaurants and bars. I will have to agree that great margaritas are to be had at La Palmilla, but so is the best ceviche I have had in years! I don't usually vacation in October, but let me tell you, the weather was perfect for walks, bike rides and sunning on the sand. It was super to not have to pack towels, chairs, coolers or anything but a bathing suit to enjoy the beach, which is only a one minute walk from the front door.

Others have mentioned the small bathroom, but I thought it was fine and completely served every purpose. Steven even thinks to put out soap and hair products if you were to forget. (He even provides laundry soap so you don't have to!) Nice touches.

The only drawback I can think of to mention is that you can hear every footstep from upstairs, but they don't keep late hours, so it was only minimally annoying. His family were out of town for half of the stay, so half of the time it was super quiet. For having a dog and a small child upstairs it was really not bad at all, but it might bother some.
