The unit was very cute and the location was ideal - right across the street from the beach. Although small, it was just the right size for two people. It was clean, the bed very comfortable, and the hosts extremely accommodating, Although there is no AC in the unit, when I asked for a fan because of how warm it was, Scott brought one over immediately and it worked just fine to cool things off.
However there are two issues that anyone considering renting this property should be aware of. The first one is the parking situation. Although the listing states that there is plenty street parking and nearby free parking lots, that is not the case at all. There was never any parking available on the street in front of the property and we were very rarely able to find a spot anywhere close on Mission Blvd. And the two "nearby" free parking lots are a good 8 minute walk away, way too far, especially late at night in the dark. This should really be made more clear in the listing because we wasted way too much time driving around, and if we had known how difficult it would be to park, we would have likely chosen a different listing. The second issue was the shower. While it was very clean and included soap, shampoo and conditioner, the shower head is very low. I am only 5'4" and it almost hit the top of my head. So you can imagine what a tough time my 6'4" husband had. This was not a deal breaker, but again, something that potential renters should be aware of.
