Can walk to the beach and to shops and restaurants, but the neighborhood is very noisy and the walls of the house are very thin, so you can hear everything. The house is on the corner and one of the cross streets (adjacent to 2/3 bedrooms) is very busy, at all hours of the day and night. There is also a stop sign at the intersection and so you just get the constant noise of cars accelerating. Because Ocean Beach is also in the flight path of the airport, you also get noise from the planes, which starts at ~6:15 am and lasts until 10:30-11pm.
The house is cute, but old and not very well maintained. The en suite shower was essentially unusable because it sprayed water all over the bathroom. The central heater did not work, portable space heaters were provided as an alternative. The fridge died during our stay (but was replaced within a couple days). And during our last day in the house, all of the outlets in the living room stopped working and we weren't able to get them turned back on
