As a whole it wasn't a bad stay. Ella was quick to communicate and everything was smooth. The door push lock feature quit working and someone was sent right away to bring me a key to use. The place was clean and well kept. that being said there are things to consider when staying here. Most notably you best hope the people in the unit next to you are quite as all that separates you from them is a locked door between the units. If i'd known that in advance i'd have passed on the stay. No one was loud or disruptive but you could hear everything they did regardless. The patio is a shared patio. Though provided with a small electric cook top to plug in, coffee pot, few cooking supplies and more , there is no where to set things besides the floor and a small dresser thing that is doubled as dish storage. You will also be doing this dishes in the bathroom sink. The bathroom lacks anywhere to put soap etc while in the shower besides the floor. Also worth noting there are multi units I am assuming Ella owns and not all the photos here are specific to this unit. Not the same bathroom and the photo with 2 beds is not this room. That being said from glimpses of other units when doors were open the other rooms look WAY better, couches tables and more space. If you are hoping for a great family stay dont get excited about the near by boardwalk as its all bars and adult night life. I have also never consistently smelt so much weed than hollywood beach, never dealt with it at Ellas place, but the area in general was constant. Now, My review may sound harsh or negative but I just wanted to be transparent. Ella is a great host and the place is okay, but far better suited for 1-2 people who just need a place to come back and sleep at night without amenities.
