After reading the reviews I had basic expectations about the place. The price was the most affordable and with the location and free parking, I felt comfortable reserving with the understanding that this place would not be luxurious but would include the basics.
The issue I had is the roaches in the room. We spent minimal time in the room but when we did we were constantly finding and killing roaches. Under the sink was borax powder for killing roaches so the owners are aware of the issue. We did not bring any food back in the room because of the roach situation. We did our best afterwards to check our luggage and make sure we didn’t take any roaches home with us.
While we were staying there, someone pulled the fire alarm in the middle of the night and everyone had to evacuate. This isn’t the hosts fault but just keep in mind that even though it looks like a hotel, there’s not really staff present to explain what is going on or what happened.
I gave this place one star for location. It is in a great location, it’s a 5 min walk to the beach and it’s near restaurants and stores. If you don’t have a car rental, it’s convenient to be near everything. I also gave this place another star for the free parking. Like another review mentioned, when driving up your car will hit the bottom if you have a lower vehicle, but it was super convenient to have an assigned parking slot. Parking can be very expensive in the area.
