Good but overpriced
Pros:

Clean + outside interior

Cons:

The fact that it looked like there was a swimming pool at the location which was in fact not the case as it was more than 2 blocks away
Coffeemachine but no coffeepads; more potential and worth its price if more extra’s were available such as coffeepads / thee bags and cooker
Airconditiong remote was nowhere to be found

Cons:

No me gustó lo que hicieron al llenar mi reserva decía que podía programar la hora de llegada y llamar a la oficina para confirmar mi hora de llegada para que me pudieran tener lista las habitación llegue a las 11 y no había nada listo nada de lo que programe fue así me dijeron que me iban a mandar mensaje al estar listo nunca recibí respuesta me toco ir a la oficina para ver si estaba listo y dijeron q si no es justo que agan eso o pongan la opción de programar la hora de llegada estábamos cansados manejando 13 horas y nada les importó así que si les sale esa opción no se confíen

Everything was great, and we had an enjoyable stay.
Pros:

We had a great stay and enjoyed our time here. Our room was modern, comfortable, and nicely updated. The location near the beach was a big plus, and the pool was exceptionally clean. We also appreciated how easy and hassle-free the check-in and check-out process was.

Cons:

There was sand throughout the unit, especially in the bedrooms, which made it seem like the floors hadn’t been thoroughly cleaned before our arrival.

Had a great time. Location is real reason I stay there. It’s perfect. Staff is always great
Pros:

I’ve stayed here before. The location is perfect with beach access right across the street and it’s central to everything

Cons:

Feel it’s a bit pricey. I was there Friday through Tuesday but check in is at 4 and check out by 10 so for three whole days was over$2100 seems like a lot especially because let’s be honest you’re never in your rooms unless you’re sleeping lol

Pros:

Room was nice,

Cons:

Totally false advertisement. Nothing that the website sells you on is what I got, even their own staff admitted its false, I would actually like a refund , im doing a Google review. This so disappointing, I was a about 5 blocks away, no pool , definitely not beach front, really thinking about talking to an attorney this false advertisement, even when the staff says the same thing.

Excelente
Pros:

Excelente ubicación, tienen varias propiedades en diferentes puntos pero súper cerca de la playa, la persona que estaba en font desk fue súper amable, tienen sillas y toldos que podíamos usar incluso por un rato después del checkout, la única piscina caliente para usar en la noche es la que está frente a front desk. Estuvo muy limpio y confortable, mi familia estuvo muy feliz de hospedarnos allí .

Cons:

El front desk no lo conseguíamos está algo escondido.

Lovely apartment, great location.
Pros:

Proximity to the beach and restaurants

Cons:

Check in was at another property down the road but we weren’t informed of this. We only worked it out as several properties had the same design/coloured signage, different name.
