This unit is in serious need of updates. The front door mat is worn with age, oven door blocks a kitchen drawer, ice maker doesn't work, and a toilet handle is loose (reported but not repaired). Storage space is inadequate. Cabinets are completely full of items of little or no use to people on vacation for a week or even a month -- food processor, blender, hand mixer, waffle maker (still in box) crock pot, and various odds and ends - dishes, cups, and plastic glasses, etc. - that look like remnants from a rummage sale. Bedding and bed pillows are stored in the bedroom dressers and closets where visitor clothing should go. All this was communicated to the owner who replied that the unit is for sale, and they are not interested in committing money to improve it, content to let new owners deal with the problems. The unit is on the second floor so renters must be willing and able to haul belongings up and down the stairs. The building itself is well maintained and in better shape than it was a few years ago when fruit from date palms (now removed) littered the patio attracting rats. Patio is now a pleasant place to spend an afternoon enjoying the sun. Parking is and always will be a problem, 13 units, 9 parking spots, first come, first served. Overflow parking on the pay-as-you-go street. Main reason to stay here is location - short walk to beach and restaurants. The price is steep. Worth it? Maybe. Depends on unit, not this one. This condo rates a 2. Location bumps it a 3.
