This unit was very pretty and the view was incredible. We did experience ants on the kitchen counter and they got inside our snacks and food that was there. We had to run the two portable AC units constantly in order for them to cool the place and they barely did the job. I recommend you check the AC unit venting to the outside. A cooler would be a really nice addition for use on excursions or the beach. Full-size washer and dryer was nice but only one load worth of laundry soap was provided.
