Check in was not smooth. Code didn’t work, they did tell us how to access a key instead. We were told we could park in the back alley. The “gate” was dangerous! Not able to use due to not being on the rollers. Almost fell and crushed my daughter when attempting to open it. Barely touched it and it was immediately obvious there was not any support for the large wooden gate. Not enough room out front to park our two cars, even though we were told we could park two vehicles in front of property. The walls were dirty, floors very flimsy and signs of rot including the window seals. Grout in bathroom around tub was peeling, cracked and stained. There was dirt in the sheets of one of the bedrooms and bugs, worms, crawling on walls in bathroom upstairs….not much positive to say. Overpriced for what we had to endure.

Overall good experience! The house had a charcoal grill, lots of dishes, utensils, and pans for cooking. Lots of space for the 9 adults and 2 kids that we had. The beds were comfortable and we had towels. Very close walk to the beach too!The living room area only holds 5-6 people on couches, everyone else had to sit on the floor or on the wood dining room chairs that aren’t very comfortable. The living room tv didn’t work. The first day in the house was pretty warm. The large room downstairs stayed warm the whole time. The other rooms did get cool. The fridge was very warm the first day as well and some food got spoiled but it cooled down overnight. There were some complaints about the shared bathroom downstairs, saying the shower was difficult to get cool and that the water was extremely hot. For the price and location, it wasn’t bad. Would have been 5 stars if the fridge worked better and the house wasn’t so warm at first. Nice host!
