Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness, communication
Great location, so-so house
Pros: I mean, it is right on the beach. And a good part of the beach, too. And walking-distance to the pier. The host was flexible with us about how many guests--we had 24, they were listed as up to 20. Easy pet policy--our well-behaved dog was with us and there was no extra fee. We did kennel him when we weren't at the house, but only as a precaution on our end. The host didn't even ask. There are lots of bathrooms, and enough beds for 17 people (assuming double-occupancy for most of them). Plenty of parking. Two big balconies.
Cons: The house is not well-cared for. One of the showers wasn't working. The downstairs bathroom sink had no hot water. Mildew growing on the bathroom ceilings. The faucet of one tub had to be shoved back in each time you turned the shower on to keep it from falling out. The basement and attic should be cleaned up or locked off to prevent kids injuring themselves. 3 of the adults in our group decided to sleep on the couches/buy air mattresses because their beds were so bad (all were bad, actually). No furniture on the balconies. The kitchen had very little silverware, bowls, glasses (but plenty of plates). But the biggest issue: the house was not clean enough. Spiderwebs in many corners. The floors, especially, needed a deep cleaning to remove possibly years of grime. The windows need to be washed. There was trash in the yard, including broken toys and used napkins. Finally, host was mostly unresponsive to anything--including inquiries about checkin
