Cliff communicated promptly before and during our stay. The house was spotless - no dust, and it all felt very clean. He provided us with everything we needed - shampoo, towels, etc. His house and neighborhood were very quiet, which was nice, and the airplanes weren't a bother at all. The neighborhood is very walkable - to get to downtown OB, coffee shops, restaurants, the beach, etc. We came to SD for a "getaway" and Cliff's place really contributed to us having an awesome vacation!
