Cute and Good Location

This unit was super cute and just enough for what we needed for our stay. The host was great about responding to us with the issue we had with parking spots and working out those details. The parking is tight; if you have a full-sized pickup truck, it's a squeeze to get into there and back into the stall. The floor was definitely not clean. We are a no-shoes-in-the-house family, and I ended up throwing away my white socks because they turned black from walking around within 15 minutes. We just made sure we wore shoes while in there. The tub did not have a visible way to keep the water in, the stopper did not hold water. The fixtures were black and were becoming worn off, so they were not as nice as the picture. We were satisfied with the place as we were there for a wrestling tournament and did not spend much time there aside from sleeping and showering. I would book this location again and just come prepared. The beach across the road is easily accessible and very clean.
