Review Score:   8
Summary: Good: 1) Good location, walkable distance to beach 2) Beach is wide and nice, not many people, pets allowed, parking is available by hour if needed 3) Nice cozy backyard 4) Spaceous basement To improve: 1) Garage had wood poles after re-constuction. I had to move them around which was heavy to be able to park both cars, it was too narrow and I could not open the doors 2) Air conditioner was pre-set to a certain range that you can't change. It didn't work for me. I have never seen such restrictions 3) Doors are missing inner manual lock. Not sure how often codes are changed and who know them, felt unsafe in this area without manual inside door locks. 4) Hot tab outside had sand on the bottom, didn't feel like using, not sure if it was cleaned 5) I think I saw 2 house cameras on main floor and basement even though in manual it was said that cameras are only used to monitor outside
