While the location in between the ocean and bay side was lovely, I was not pleased overall with some of the features of this air bnb. It got such wonderful reviews so I had high hopes. First, the bedroom window, which is an arms length away from the adjacent building/neighboring porch, did not lock. This is definitely a safety issue and as two young women traveling alone I felt very uncomfortable with. The smoke alarm was broken. The pilot light on the stove and oven was out so we had to manually start the two with a small lighter-another potential safety hazard. The instructions for the TV did not make any sense and were not accurate. It was like trying to get into Fort Knox to work the Roku. The ceiling fans and lights were only operated by remotes but the batteries were dead. The seal on the toilet would not stick so I had to put my hand down in the back of the toilet to hold tight the seal so it would flush. The bed and pillows were very hard and uncomfortable, maybe an updated comforter and pillows would be nice for the guests?
The bikes were a nice addition and patty allowed us to check in earlier since our flight got in so early which was great. There is a small convenience store a few steps away we were able to make late night munchie runs to. Also a coffee shop next door with lovely açaí bowls!
It is a small vintage apartment that was bare bones but had all the necessities. Can’t beat the location but a few minor tweaks and I think Patty would really have a winner.
Also, many people mentioned in the reviews about getting a $30 gift card to a local restaurant. I know it was not promised in the description but enough people commented on it so it was actually one of the reasons we picked this spot. Was disappointed when we were not left one.
