Unfortunately we weren't at Al's place for very long! Our two nights there were good, and everything was how it's described. It's in a great location. Within walking distance of a playground, and restaurants. The beach is just a block or so away.
It's pretty bare bones as far as amenities, but that's also as described. Anything other than salt and pepper, you'll need to bring. Also bring your own shampoo and conditioner.
It's great to have a parking spot in the garage, but be aware that it's pretty small. We had a mini van and it was really too big for the spot. Fortunately parking in front was easy enough this time of year.
