Great for a short stay

I thought the condo was perfect for a weekend, the location is nice and the small ocean view is a good selling point. The check in is easy and there is a coffee shop on bottom floor and places to eat in walking distance. I would definitely rent again.

Good location

Great location, studio condo and view. No complaints with the property manager, very easy process. The building however was less than ideal with faulty exterior doors (not connected to the condo), boil advisory during our stay and random fire alarms. To be fair there was road construction going on, so not sure if it impacted any of those issues.
