We had a pleasant stay overlooking a local park, and enjoyed the view of the ocean from a distance. It was a pleasant walk to beaches, shops, etc. We were above a busy street and needed to close the patio doors to block out the noise, especially in the evening and overnight. We appreciated being allowed to put our luggage in the room early, giving us more time to enjoy the first day. The apartment had a comfortable bed and the basics. It was reasonably clean. We were able to do minimal cooking with the one cooking element and a very small fridge. The beach towels were a welcome touch. The pool was often not useable because of the impact of the wind. The BBQ was quite rusted and guests had to provide charcoal, which was not mentioned in the description. Laundry room was clean and machines simple to use. It would be nice to have a booklet or binder in the apartment containing important information such as: wifi connection, operation of coffee machine, BBQ, television, local restaurants,
