We booked this place when it was newly listed with no reviews. After reading some of the reviews we were definitely nervous. We should not have been! We had a great time, the place was very clean. It is a self serve place, it says so and we brought toilet paper and air freshener for the smell that everyone talked about.
The location is beyond perfect, amazing for a family, felt so safe, and the view is stunning. The beach and many restaurants are steps away which was perfect. So much to do in the area!
The apartment was very clean, there was a smell, but seriously nothing that affected us! We came in a cooler time (28-31 during the day but cooler nights) so it may have been more unbearable for heat and smell during the summer months.
There was also wifi which was a nice surprise as it says it isn’t included in the ad.
Very responsive host, eager to help with any issues you may have. Check in and out was so easy with a lock box.
One thing, which did not affect our rating was that you cannot park on the street Thursday nights because of a Friday morning market. Just something to keep in mind.
Hope this helps anyone looking at this place!
