Location was amazing!!!!! Dishwasher bottom drawer had issues, some outlets didn't work, light switches hanging off and worst was the upstairs main shower. Impossible to find the right temperature as the knob just flops around. Just an older place that needs some love. We would probably still come back just due to the location on the beach, though.
