The property listed a queen size bed which would work for my child and I. It was at most a full size bed. When you walk up to the place the hall was so dark need cell flash light to put code in for the key. The place reeked of urine it was so strong. Advertised old 1950 building and the furniture matched theme with tape holding cushion to chair. There was what looked like exposed wiring in the kitchen, good thing we didnt bring the dogs. The bedroom had a rug that was a tripping hazard almost crashing my skull into the TV.
Good things right off the beach, offered beach chair. Other than the smell, place looked clean.
Overall we would recommend this place. Its a cute vintage studio. Its tough to find a place that allows our three big dogs so this was a wonderful find. In the summer this would be a perfect little beach getaway.
I do wish I had known this was an upstairs studio. Its only a consideration because our smallest big dog tends to go up and down like a wrecking ball and we'd rather not disturb others.
Also, we didn't know how to work the old heater & had to message the host. Otherwise our stay was very enjoyable.
Perfect for access to the Beach and a place to lay your head at night. Made recommendations and they said they were going to implement them. I would also recommend a book for visitors to write in and where they are from. Also a list of things to do restaurants, entertainment and boardwalk information.
Thanks,

The location is why I booked but the place is absolutely filthy.
The air conditioner is plugged in to an extension cord! There is only one plug in available and itâs used!
Paint is peeling off the walls!
The stairs are steep and dark.
Lastly he made his cleaner enter my unit without my knowledge and my dogs barked at her so heâs saying my dogs are a problem. Ridiculous.
Worst stay Iâve experienced. I am an owner who rents via VRBO, this is not how to manage successfully.
A simple no-frills compact studio apartment with everything I needed for my short vacation. A few steps in one direction to a nice beach, and a few steps in the other direction to a nice brewery. Great communication with the manager.
The description of this unit is accurate. Itâs very small and very dated but perfect for sleeping and spending most of your time at the beach. You canât see the beach but it is only a 1 minute walk. This is a 2nd floor unit so prepare for that. If youâre looking for modern this isnât the place for you. If youâre looking for quaint and quiet itâs perfect. The beach is AWESOME at this location. Not crowded at all.
Old building no fan in the restroom! You canât see yours self on the mirror ,the door is very old and unsafe, smells really bad ! The tenant was really nice with us!
The pic are not accurate. The building was very run down. No door leading up to the apartment,The floors were sticky mold on mirror, old rusty stove for heat. There was no room to park. Spoke with owner before booking. Asked if it was ocean front, she said yes ocean side. You couldnt see ocean at all. It was a very sketchy neighbor hood. Didnt end up staying and wasted my money. O wouldnt give refund. Beware of this host, not honest and very misleading When you read description they try to justify the other comments ...
This is a family endeavor. George, Kathleen and George Jr. are all working hard to provide a fantastic vacation value. We love our little Beach Side Studio Apartment and hope you will too.
This is the perfect place to stay as you visit historic Norfolk. The naval base is just minutes away as is the zoo. The Chesapeake Bay beaches are just a short 30 second walk away. Many fine restaurants are close as well as night spots!
