Communication with the host was EXCELLENT--friendly, helpful, and prompt. The guidebook that was provided had all sorts of useful tips and information, was easy to use, and extraordinarily helpful. While the apartment itself did show a bit of wear, it was clean and the location was great. The beach was just around the corner so we could spend the day there but were still able to pop back in the apartment for the bathroom or if we needed something. Plenty of restaurants were within walking distance and a grocery store (open seven days a week) was quite close. The host provided a baby bed and high chair at no extra cost. The pool was clean and nice, although not heated. Our only issue was the traffic noise from the street; it was loud enough to still disturb our daughter's sleep even with the windows shut. Thankfully, after the first night, we all got used to it and were able to sleep. Overall, we had a great stay and the apartment was everything we needed it to be for a short getaway!
