**Disappointing Experience – Misleading Description**
I had high hopes for this home based on its description, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to expectations. The listing mentioned that it was close enough to walk to the beach, but the reality is quite different. The walk to the beach is over 25 minutes long, and it involves passing through a not-so-great neighborhood and alongside major roadways. The area also had a noticeable homeless presence, which made the walk uncomfortable.
Another significant issue was the parking situation. The listing advertised a parking permit, but there was no on-street parking available. Upon check-in, I was informed that I'd need to pay for meter parking, which was an unexpected and a frustrating surprise. To make matters worse, there was a driveway on the property that remained unused for the first part of our stay, yet we were told we couldn’t park in it.
The unit itself was uncomfortably hot, and the neighborhood didn’t feel safe enough to keep the windows open, making it difficult to cool down the space. Additionally, the home wasn’t as clean as I would have hoped; there were dirty dishes left in the kitchen, which made the place feel unkempt.
Overall, the experience was disappointing, and I wouldn’t recommend this studio hto a friend. It didn’t match the description and had several issues that made the stay less enjoyable.
