Pros:
-Safety - the area is very quiet with friendly neighbors that make you feel at ease, even at night
-Very affordable - Best deal in the area
-TV was nice to have and unit layout was very simple
-Location is good- walking distance to the beach, park, and a number of places to eat
-While we didn't take advantage of the outdoor patio space, it was a nice perk
-Check-in and check-out were extremely straightforward
Cons:
-Floor wasn't clean- sand and dirt upon arrival
-Stiff/uncushioned futon couch and no ottoman or rug as pictured
-We are New Yorkers and even for us the walls are WAY too thin:
1. Could hear conversations clearly even with door and windows closed
2. Nightly there would be chairs, tables, other furniture being dragged around in unit
above
3. Friday night - loud music on repeat in unit above, people having a party till 3am
- Old, saggy bed that did not have any support
- Upon removing the bed sheets and pillow cases from the bed as requested by host, noticed there were yellow stains on the pillows
- Fan on bedroom ceiling needs to be fixed or replaced because it made a constant screechy sound when on; even ear plugs did not block out the noise
- Bathroom sink would clog up after 5 seconds of low water flow
- While the host was upfront about parking, there is nothing ever available on the street adjacent to the unit. We had to park about 6-7 minutes away every time, and also had to be mindful of when to move the car due to parking restrictions
This unit would be fine for a 1 or 2 night stay, but wouldn't recommend booking for longer than that until the above issues are resolved.
