Did not meet expectations
Booked this property for 6 weeks, Jan. 29-March 12. Positives are...responsive host, good location, and extra added items were appreciated ie coffee, toiletries, general kitchen needs (ie dish soap etc) and the meditation garden overlooking the town and ocean is lovely.
But know, this is an apartment on the ground floor of a home, which feels more like a basement as there is very little natural lighting that comes through due to the structure of the home. Any sufficient lighting will come from overhead ceiling lights and lamps. The space functions basically as a studio as there are no separate rooms (excl the bathroom and closet). Know that you can also hear the foot steps and some times talking of the family above living on the second level of the home. The window mounted heating/cooling unit rattles when turned, seems quite old. The description of the property and photos are misleading. To clarify, any renovation on this property seems to have been done many years ago as appliances and general condition is not new. The carpet is in great need of replacement (stained and dirty). I imagine this contributes to the unpleasant odor in the apartment. The main living /tv area is next to the only large window which is feet from the garage where people use the garage key pad to enter the home. This happens multiple times a day, so to me, it did not feel private. In the photos, the bed is shown next to the aforementioned window, it is not however set up like that in reality. The bed is in the area shown in the photos as the living area (with couch). Hearing the waves crash from your bed is not a possibility as mentioned in the description. Also, the patio shown in the photos is actually at the front door of the main house lived in by the family. This would put you sitting at their front door, which is used frequently by people coming and going, deliveries etc.
