The apartment was well located and had charming decor details, and some fun items to use at the beach, which was all nice. It was as it was described.
With that however, there were a few things to note as a traveler:
1. The walls are very thin and you can hear everything from the room at the head of your bed. This was especially difficult when partiers carried on from 2am-4:30am (who share an adjoining balcony) and all the management could do was advise me to "call the police next time" or "check with security" (that isn't in the lobby at that time)
2. There are 2 small trash bins (1 gallon?) and a bag in each. After that you need to buy your own trash bags somewhere near by.
3. The parking is a bust. Under the building, a private company runs a 12 stall mini lot that cannot fit tall vehicles and without fail (during our entire 12 day stay) was full. Which means, you could pay $25 for the daily rate, leave to get groceries, come back, and have no space.
3. You cannot load or unload closer than a block away (in the back)
4. There are excessive laminated "RULES" throughout the building. Its a bit intimidating. They even state that you cannot hang dry your clothes on the balcony.
5. The television is extremely slow. Like 15 seconds to turn on and load apps, and at least a 3 second delay to each tap.
6. The air conditioning is literally falling apart. The front of it is taped on.
7. The bed springs squeak with every move.
I know that some of these items are out of the control of the owner, but still as a traveler worth being aware of.
After the service fees, cleaning fees, and taxes, we could have stayed in at least 2 nearby hotels (we checked the prices when we got there) where some of these issues would have never arisen.
