The location is fabulous - we were looking for an interesting, walkable neighborhood and this was it. Being able to bring our dogs without ridiculous fees was wonderful. The beach is right there! Joe was a welcoming host.
Improvements could be made in cleanliness, especially the bathroom, kitchen, and yard. (Pick up after your pets, people!) Another reviewer mentioned ants and mold which we also experienced but dealt with using a bleach pen and not leaving edibles out. Also, any food or toiletries provided to guests should be fresh (not expired) and unused.
The host can't control the parking situation, which is tight even on weekdays but somehow we got the last spot on the block every time. We wish you the same good luck!
For us, this met our low-key needs and we made the most of our stay.
