Liked: Cleanliness
Very clean. Easy check in and out process. Nice quiet neighborhood. The neighborhood beach was closed due to hurricane damage still, but this rental is very close to public beach accesses that are open. You also get a beach gear rental credit with your stay, which is handy for those flying in without beach gear.

Tiny

Not only is this unit much smaller than I expected, but it had no kitchen or even an armchair (just a director's chair and a tiny folding table should you want to eat). Generally speaking these kinds of cottages are hard to keep dry in this climate (as compared with a modern house or a hotel), so the general feeling is one of being cramped and clammy. That's not to say it wasn't decently equipped - and the shower was clean. For bargain hunters only.

Needs more attention to detail

I liked the location and the amenities like bikes and beach access, but the room had some issues. The bed pillows had unpleasant odors when we arrived. This was corrected upon request. The electronic door lock was finicky and on the last day, we were locked out an hour early by management changing the code too soon.
