For a budget place, this place was fine. The kitchen seemed brand new, which was nice. Bathroom was clean and the place Is decorated nicely. There are a few stains on the carpet and walls - making the stay feel a little less vacation-like but the price was right for us so we let it go. There is only one ceiling fan, and it is in the kitchen and only works When the kitchen light is on - not convenient at night. The standing fan in the bedroom didn’t work night one, but the host quickly Replaced it with a brand new one the next day, which was absolutely necessary, because unlike the post says, the bedroom does not cool Down on its own at all with the window open. Zero breeze there. But the front room/kitchen cooled down in minutes at night with window and front door open. Also, the wall heater in the hallway had the pilot Light on and it gave off heat. I asked about turning it off a few times and my request was never acknowledged. I let it go since the new fan worked enough, but it was still Irritating knowing there was a mini heater heating the place. I have to say we got lucky with parking every time, but it seemed like We always got the last spot on the street.
In the bathroom, we saw a handful of ants come and go out of a few cracks in the shower. Wasn’t a big deal, but again killed the vacation vibes to think about having to deal with it if it became an issue. Consequently we were paranoid about leaving food in trash incase. So just extra work for us which, again, you don’t want on a vacation.
At the end of the day, it was the cheapest place we could find and that comes with some sacrifices. My less picky husband was happy with it outside of the heat issue.
The biggest miss in the advertising here is that from the kitchen window you can see the ocean. And it’s not just a sliver. It’s far away but we loved looking out and seeing the socean. They really should sell that more.
