This stay was for our anniversary and on paper this place seemed perfect: Large and near the beach. In practice, it was pretty much just "average."
First, we struggled to crack the code to get inside as the "lock" was a touch old, but more importantly, the code was WAY too long to type in before a problem glitched it. We did get in and the space had two rooms, a kitchen, a sitting area, and of course, a restroom. Also, the beach was very much within walking distance, so for those attributes, I could put up with the complex entrance.
Even though I should have taken notes on the location, it is a drab space between two Lincoln City hotter spots. Being between means we had no real aesthetic touches...just a busy highway and lots of vacation rentals surrounding us. So I started having a bit of a negative vibe, as did my wife.
While the basics were covered well, there were no "touches" that made this place memorable. The interior wasn't awful, but it just had a dated look. At this point, we just didn't feel like we were on a vacation date...more like a business stay that we had to endure.
What really made my view turn to the negative was outside the windows: Super-bright lights wove through the blinds and made it appear as though daybreak were near. That made it really hard to sleep and made us both edgy by morning (Hint: That unit definitely needs blackout curtains!).
Overall, for the money, you get a good deal, but if you want a touch of romance, look elsewhere.
