Rafael's condo was very appealing and we loved sitting out on the balcony enjoying the sound and view of the ocean. Beds were really comfortable. Beach towels and chairs were appreciated. Pool was lovely and popular. The check-in was a little uncomfortable because the building managers don't want to have to look at you in their lobby or something so you get diverted through a side door like a workers' entrance. I guess it's a a compromise, and it all worked out fine but I would have liked to expect it. If you can time it right, the Hollywood trolley runs very close and costs $1. There is a 7-11 only a block away which has the very basics. There is a big closet off the bedroom which has tons of storage space and also is well-lit and mirrored for getting ready for the day. I did a ton of research was overall very happy with this choice.
