PROS: The room was clean, stocked with everything you would need (linens, beach towels/mat, chairs, kitchen supplies, iron, etc.), and centrally located. It was a close walk to the beach and right next door to the international marketplace. The balcony had ocean views and you could catch the corner of the sunset.
NEUTRAL: The bed wasn't the most comfortable and the linens felt old.
CONS: Checking in and communicating with Jess left much to be desired. Our check-in time was 3pm, and when we arrived just before 4pm the parking spot was occupied. I called her and she told us it was probably the cleaning lady. She said we could drop our bags off, offered $15, and suggested to grab a drink at the international market place after we pressed the issue. She never apologized for the inconvenience, and instead blamed it on a previous tenant leaving too much sand in a different unit. No attempt was made to reach out to us and let us know the room would be ready late. If we'd known, we would have planned our day differently. The room was ready at 4:45.

There were multiple notes instructing how we were allowed to use the bathroom towels, to keep all sand out of the apartment, take the trash out daily, etc. One of the best parts of Airbnb is feeling like you're in a home instead of a hotel--with that comes respecting it as if it IS your home. The notes and "rules" left us feeling like we were in trouble right when we got there. The room and location were great, but know it's operated like a vacation rental not an airbnb.
