Overall, the experience was fine, but missed the mark for our group of two couples. Katrina was very responsive and that was appreciated. The location was right in the center of Old Town and in normal times would be a nice draw.
My major gripe was the proximity of the house to the freeway next door. The noise never ends and doesn’t make the pool area very enjoyable for adults. Plus, there are frequent train horns, planes and choppers all vying for your eardrums, as well. There are 2 or 3 cameras facing the pool and a neighbor’s upstairs window all eyeing you at all times around the pool so that definitely took out any seclusion to the experience. Even if the cameras aren’t actively monitored it felt invasive of our privacy.
No chaise lounges or any pool furniture to sunbathe.
Also, the unit is not a “house.” It’s connected to two other units in a complex and I found that misleading because I had specifically searched for an entire “house” on airBNB.
All the beds, bedding, cabinetry and furniture is ikea or similar, which is fine, but the photos make the unit look nicer than it is, in our opinion. Everything seemed a bit cheap.
WiFi was absolutely atrocious - reminiscent of staying in Mexico 10 years ago. Very, very slow. Couldn’t even get my work done there.
I could see this being a decent fit for a family that needs the 3 beds/baths and won’t care about traffic noise, etc. but it missed our expectations of a higher-end getaway. We were happy to move on to a nice resort hotel.
