This is a good size apartment in an older building, located close to the beach, and well equipped for a family or two. Bathrooms are remodeled, which is a plus. We took three stars off because we were let down by the owner’s attitude toward dealing with us renters.

In particular, we realized after checking-in that there was no regular water in the kitchen and one bathroom due to a pre-existing plumbing leak issue. Having just one bathroom and no kitchen sink to use for a family with toddlers and infant was a big inconvenience. We reported this issue to the owner’s manager as soon as we realized and later to Airbnb. After multiple follow-ups, the plumbing was fixed on second day evening.

However, the owner started falsely accusing us of breaking their plumbing once we reported the issue to Airbnb and sent us a bill for reimbursement. Although after reviewing all the facts that we presented, Airbnb made the decision in our favor. Owner also sent a notification that their noise detector detecting loud noise, probably due to a crying infant. The Airbnb listing did not specify about such devices being installed on the property, which is a privacy concern (there was a paper notice on the interior door).
