It was nice...
Pros:

The location was great, except for the road works that was happening in the area made it very noisy and slow to get around. The pool and BBQ area was very nice. Free car parking and parking spot was great!

Cons:

It was dirty, old and shabby inside the apartment. There was still sand in the shower, a lot of sand. There was mold in the shower, the shower head looked like it had never been cleaned or replaced. The couch, which is the first thing you see upon entering was stained and old looking. The kitchen cook top looked rusty and old. The internet was unreliable. The walls where stained and the blinds where stained and miss matched.

Great location, and good value, but could use a tidy up.
Pros:

This property is a fantastic location between beach and restaurants.

Cons:

The apartment needs a deep clean and the property is looking tired in hallways, doors, and the pool. It also doesn't have any basics - not even soap, which I think you should advertise it as a bring everything.
