The location is good because it takes about 15 minutes to walk to the nearest beach and it’s a very easy walk. The neighbourhood can feel a little unsafe but nothing happened at all; just something to keep in mind if travelling alone. I could hear people outside my door (going into their own place or walking past my door) which was a little scary but again, nothing happened. It’s just something to keep in mind if you’re alone; it can make normal things like that a little bit scarier. There’s a 7/11 right downstairs and the little cafe opens in the morning downstairs; they’re nice and have quite a few pastry + drink options, which is nice, because a lot of other places weren’t open in the morning! Very convenient.
Also, if you’re like me and just staying for a long layover and you have to pick up your bags from the airport (the airline wouldn’t allow me to check them in to my next flight because I was flying the next calendar day, even though it was less than 24 hours) it’s much cheaper to store your bags at the Airbnb hotel ($5/per bag/per day) than the airport ($15+/per bag/per day). Not sure if it’s allowed for Airbnb guests to use that service because I just kept mine in my room, but if you’re going to be out of the room a lot and prefer to have more security, that could be an option to look into.
