The hosts were great - I got a timely response for every ping I sent. They were super helpful in coordinating a mid stay clean up for me. The location is amazing - just three blocks from the beach! For those looking for a spacious stay near the beach, this is a no brainer. The place is a little old though, so some luxuries you might take for granted aren't available here. There's no central heat for cold nights, the walls are indeed thin so you'll hear your neighbors, and the bathroom could use a touch up. Good value if you're looking for a beach stay but understand what you're getting if you're looking for luxury.
