Right on the Bay

There are many positives about this unit. Parking was good and the location facing the bay was very nice. You can see ships come and go all day. There are ceiling fans in every room and the kitchen is nicely stocked. The downside is the neighborhood. I wouldn’t have felt too safe walking around. No restaurants or grocery stores are walkable that we saw. Another downside is the furniture (except the beds) is not really comfortable. There are only 3 spots at the dining table and 3 lounging spots. All that said, I would rent it again as it worked for the two of us.
