We had a great time at Nina's. It's close to everything, but not too close to the crowds. We loved the decor and lounged frequently on the massive living room sofa, under the ceiling fan.
The street traffic was a bit noisy at night, but with the bedroom windows closed, you could barely hear a thing. The bedroom also has a nice, quiet, powerful fan to keep you cool.
And yes, a quick stroll down the block and you've got your feet in the sand and sea!
Thanks, Nina!
