Pros:
- good location, not far from the beach
- more space than in a hotel room with more seating options and privacy
- some cute decorations
- kitchen and bathroom have been upgraded and look nice
- host was quick to respond
Cons
- the windows are made of glass slates that don't close fully and provide little to no noise insulation, so you end up hearing everything that happens on the street. We had a creature (a zombie?) learning to pronounce the "A" sound for an hour or so during one night and the downstairs shop getting deliveries around 6 am both mornings that sounded like someone was throwing 100 lb kettlebells against a concrete wall.
- the on-street parking is only free between 9 pm and 9 am (the listing doesn't mention that); it's limited to 2 hours during the day
- the bathroom vanity was clogged and didn't drain
