Add about 30 years of age, wear and tear to the photographs and you're getting close to the truth. (If you use the extremely convenient included parking space, try not to look too much at the lower level of the building as you pass through; it will truly show the building's condition.)
The paint on the walls of the unit was bubbling, peeling and discolored in many places. A few shelves and bars in the refrigerator were broken. The bathroom was perhaps the biggest disappointment, particularly when compared to photographs. The toilet seat lid was cracked, the dials for the shower and sink discolored, and the ceiling panels completely missing. Do not expect to find any of the beach chairs or umbrellas past reviewers mentioned, as when we arrived they were rusted and/or broken.
As other reviewers have commented, it is an extremely loud area, even if you are used to living in the heart of a city.
The location is, however, convenient, and the view is delightful. The couch was comfortable enough for lounging, and the beds were fine. Guaranteed parking is also a big plus. We did not have much communication with the host, but that we did have was fine.
