The view from Beach Cliff was incredible! I would say the location/view made this visit worth it. A few things that bothered us: 1. When we first arrived, the cleaning lady wasn’t wearing a mask while cleaning our apartment, 2. There was a strange smell for the first few days coming from the bathroom, we left the air filter on and that seemed to do the trick but the first few days we were freaked out a bit, 3. Communication was for the most part great. The one time it really mattered (we got a tsunami warning) it took the host a few hours to respond, 4. If you’re a tea drinker, you’ll have to pick up your own tea. We attempted to make hot water in the coffee pot but I’m assuming from the coffee remnants the water was dirty.
If you stay out here, I definitely recommend renting a car as it’s not close to little Italy/gas lamp quarter/ etc.
