    Clean place. Host was great and made check-in very easy. Love the fresh flowers (nice touch). Super convenient to the beach. Nice to have parking on site. Loaded with beach gear to use- Loved this (wagon, chairs, coolers, towels etc.). Bathroom door- needs help severely! Great spot!! Shared Laundry downstairs is super sketchy (nice to have) but super dangerous- my friend cut her back on some rusty electrical stuff upon entering.

    This was a great little place for my daughters and I to stay over spring break.It was comfortable, very clean. Host was responsive and was flexible about check in and check out time. The real standout feature about this place is the location. One short block to the beach access and a few minutes to walk into town where all of the restaurants and shops are. There were lots of spring breakers while we were there and even on some of the rowdier nights, we heard very little noise from inside this tucked away unit and never enough to interfere with sleep.We definitely recommend!
