Summary: The location of the room is amazing as it directly faces the ocean and they provide wholesome breakfast which is a nice touch! But there are some logistical issues with the property: 1. the 4 car parking space is the most uncomfortable lot I have ever encountered. It’s like someone drew the parking lot on a paper and forgot to take into consideration the ground reality. 2. The room doesn’t have any AC which could become an issue during hotter days. 3. There are a lot (a lot) of stairs to get to the rooms, so not accessible friendly at all! 4. If you’re staying in one of the farther rooms, there is no WiFi signal in those rooms, despite the property claiming it offers WiFi. 5. This property is part of larger Rentals and the only form of communication is via text but you never know with whom you’re chatting. They’re pretty responsive but it just felt weird! Overall the staff is friendly, service is good but wouldn’t really recommend staying here if you have other options.
