Overall the place matches the description pretty well. The place was decently clean. It is very close to the beach and at the south end of mission beach making it a bit more secluded which is nice. It’s about a 15 min walk to Belmont park which is also very convenient. There is designated parking, but the spaces are tight. You really have to rely on the person parking next to you to also park well so that you can get out of your vehicle. We also appreciated the AC and portable fan to help circulate air. The info binder had a lot of great info regarding places to eat and visit.
All that being said, there were just a few things missing from the Airbnb that we felt would have made our trip a bit more enjoyable.
1. Kitchen supplies. The supplies were very limited. For example, we only had 3 forks and there were no cookie/baking sheets. You will want to stock up on trash bags, water bottles, and ice during your stay. Seasonings are just salt and pepper so keep that in mind too.
2. A smart tv would have been nice. Most of the airbnbs we have stayed at have smart tvs allowing the guests to watch Netflix, Hulu, etc using their own accounts.
3. There is what we suspect to be black mold growing on the ceiling above the shower.
4. Some of the outlets don’t work and the light switch for the kitchen didn’t work either. It might be that the light is burnt out.
5. We found the mattress to be pretty hard. A mattress topper would help a lot.
6. More bath towels. A few more bath towels would have been appreciated as well. We were only given 3. There is a community laundry machine though.
