The beach bungalow was a great spot for a quick walk to the beach, however it left much to be desired in terms of cleanliness, upkeep, and location. I know that the property is older which is fine and some things are to be expected for an older property; however, it was disappointedly not cleaned well before our arrival. The dishes in the cupboard were visibly dirty and the dish rack was dirty and mildewey. The floor also hadn't been properly swept and the the kitchen was dusty/dirty overall. There was some mold in the bathroom window and the shower/tub silicone was old and dirty. Some of the windows would also not open well which made it difficult to air out in the afternoon when the place was super hot inside. Overall, despite the property being older, it needs some overall maintenance and upkeep to make it more desirable. Having done many home renovation projects we could tell the place needs some TLC.
In terms of location, there were constantly people walking down the alley and loitering around the 7/11 right behind the property. It was nice to have the locked gate, however the guests in the neighboring bungalow kept leaving it unlocked. During the night we were woken up by someone screaming and cursing. The bungalow would probably be a fine location for a couple, however we didn't feel comfortable with our young kids here.
