The location was excellent; the beach, coffee shops, etc are just a couple of blocks away.
However, the house is really old, and it shows. It needs some TLC to bring it up to expectations. For example: the heaters in the bedrooms did not work (which made nights a bit uncomfortable). Small things like a broken dimmer switch for the hallway light, the half-sink in the small bathroom; the uncomfortable bed, were constant irritants.
So while the location is ideal, the house does not seem like great value for the money.
