I'm only writing this review because I wish there was one containing this information before I booked my stay.
I stayed here for 30 days but I did not feel at home and I should have left early. This is NOT a quiet residential neighborhood. Guests cannot comfortably sleep at ALL. The bed is not comfortable, I bought my own pillow while I was there because the pillows were so bad. There are airplanes that take off every few minutes, so close that they shade the sun for a second when they go by. I sleep with earplugs in and they were still so LOUD. If you're watching TV, you'd have to hit pause because you won't be able to hear.
The airplanes were bad, but you're also surrounded by 3 other AirBnB's with people constantly coming and going. You might have all night partiers staying at one of them and then have a screaming, crying child outside your bedroom window the next morning from another. One of the first nights I arrived, I woke up in the middle of the night and genuinely thought an intruder had entered the house because when people open and close the gates (that need fixing) it reverberates and seriously sounds like it's inside the house. I've never been more scared in my life.
People are constantly coming in and out of this gate because this setup has 4 nearly identical AirBnB's all on top of each other so there is NO privacy whatsoever. Can you see the ocean from the front window, yes, but if you open the blinds everyone can see your every move. I didn't even enjoy the ocean because of this.
You're not supposed to smoke on these properties but I had to cover the AC unit because cigarette smoke would blow in through it. The weed smell just comes with the territory in Ocean Beach.
I also have to mention that the backyard of this unit, compared to the others, was very unkept. It needs to be redone and they REALLY need pest control. I bought my own ant traps and spray because there were so many ants and spiders inside. Spider webs were all over the backyard so it was no surprise that there were spiders in the house.
This place would be fine for a night maybe, if you were just passing through like many of the travelers around me in the other AirBnB's were. There was constant turnover so if you are looking for a "quiet residential neighborhood" as the description says this is, look elsewhere.
It's important to note that it's not just this house, Ocean Beach is a LOUD place. There are people around constantly, a lot of unhoused sleeping on the sidewalks, and it's in the direct flight path so there are low flying airplanes constantly taking off. That is just how Ocean Beach is. I would recommend staying in Mission Beach if this does not appeal to you.
