Great location and very quiet. We didn't have any problems with street parking. We recommend bringing some additional padding for the sofa bed and roll away mattresses. We appreciated having both so our kids didn't have to share. Will stay here again in the future!

We loved that the location was so close to the beach and the waterfront area. It is close to so many activities. It was a nice place for my daughters and I to stay. A very cute and quaint condo. Check in and out was very easy. Loved our stay.
