We had a lovely time staying at Melo. The layout of the apartment is very nice and functional. It is slightly dated, but well maintained and all the appliances, as well as the grill, and AC work like a champ. There is very hot water and the towels, while older, were very soft, and there were plenty of them. The linens were very nice and the beds were comfortable.
It's an easy walk to the beach and the boardwalk.
We felt that the host was available for any questions or concerns we might have had.
And BONUS, you have your own parking lot, a big deal near the beach! Keep in mind that the street the parking lot is on is a one way street and your GPS will tell you the lot is on the right...it's not, it's on the left.
Oh, and to the person who said the neighborhood was "iffy." What a snobby attitude! It may not be the most posh neighborhood, but my 11 year old and I walked around to and from the beach and boardwalk, even at night, and all we met were friendly, helpful neighbors. It's a very quiet area with quite a few senior citizens living there, we never felt unsafe.
Thanks Dalila, we really enjoyed our stay!
