About this apartment rental
Similk Inlet, Beach view, charming 180 SF Old-meets-new, glam-garage-studio. It's a cozy, comfortable space with original shiplap, vaulted ceilings, open beams and a beautiful ambiance from the vintage fixtures. A few 8 legged sea creatures add a touch of whimsy throughout! So Peaceful, with several reports of the best sleep one could have. Listen to the wind through the rafters, birds outside, including owls and frogs in the springtime. Breathe in our wonderful PNW salt air. Star gaze on the patio on a warm summers night. Enjoy a glass of wine from the Adirondacks while watching the tide roll in. Take a 2 minute stroll down to the beach. Bring your Kayaks, Paddle boards, biking & hiking gear!

POSITIVES: location, good bed, filtered water, quiet at night, fab toilet, towelsNEGATIVES: stepping out of bed onto cracked concrete floor..yuck, steepness of driveway is not good for seniors, no towel racks (your octopus hooks are cute but you've got a whole wall you could use for racks or shelves), nowhere comfortable to sit...can't read in bed, chairs are not comfy, need 1 more place for luggage...like to the left of the sliding door as you walk in, and no TV....really no TV? SOMEHOW i missed that in the listing. Also, shampoo was nasty smelling.

Everything was wonderful at the guesthouse, from the spotless room to the amazing location overlooking the beach! We enjoyed the snacks and the room was comfortable and nicely decorated! The location was very convenient, and we loved the Italian restaurant nearby. We would definitely stay again!

The property was excellent. Our host was great. Just what we needed. We did have a problem with VRBO and their "policy" of charging and collecting the damage deposit. VRBO does not want me to include dates or amounts in this review, so I won't. Our final payment was due **/**/**** and at that time my credit card was charged a ****.** damage deposit. OK I understand. When we checked out on **/**/**** we found out that VRBO's "policy" is to hold damage deposits for two weeks. Even though there was no damage. We finally received our refund on **/**/****. Wow bad business VRBO!!! Once again, I want to reiterate that the host and property are top notch. A great place to stay if you don't mind VRBO's "policies".

It got very warm inside, even with air conditioning on. I was unable to get the keybox to work properly when I left. I left note, on table with key, didn't hear back about it.Super steep gravely driveway hard to navigate at night, put up markers. ok weekend stay.
