"I liked that it was close to where I had to be every morning. It was clean and spacious. The only thing that I was not very happy about was that I was woken up every night throughout the night to noise from the upstairs. Heavy footsteps and banging"

"This is a great spot! It is so surprising what is fit into a smaller space. The airfryer and induction element along with the toaster oven would allow you to cook a full roast chicken dinner with all the fixings. Lovely spot. Comfortable king bed. You can use the patio overlooking the ocean. Very quiet neighborhood. A small oceanside park foour minutes walk. Do check out the Rusty Rake for an exceptional dinner. Thanks Brad."
