This could be a great property, as it's in a great location, close to the beaches and shops. However it was pretty tired, and really (and I do mean really) dirty. I would recommend taking all your own mattress covers, blankets, and pillows etc. Thankfully the Real Estate agent did waive the cleaning fee, but it really needs a thorough spring clean. Please note there is no WiFi either. ##### Melinda S.
