May 28, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Close to the beach, close to the road The house was nice, but we felt some what claustrophobic due to the low ceilings and big fans you had to watch out for. If you are 6 ft, be careful! The location was nice and close to the beach which was lovely, but close to a busy road and you hear traffic all night long. There are no curtains/blinds. The back yard Spicket for the hose is broken so could not wash off Sandy feet. Yard was not taken care of, weeds everywhere. Beds were extremely uncomfortable so did not sleep most nights and left early. ##### David P.
