Great place! It was easy to get everywhere we wanted! There is great coffee across the street and shopping and the beach right there! The noise level was definitely as described, but we knew to expect this.
Only problem was the AC unit blocked the blinds from closing all the way, leaving half the window uncovered to the busy street. We ended up hanging something over the window so we felt comfortable walking around the unit and going to bed at night.
Overall, I recommend this apartment. It was clean, well decorated, and in a great location. But I would definitely want something to be done for more privacy!
