The good - convenient and SUPER close to dog beach if that’s where you want to be. The unit is very cute and fairly well-appointed little unit for a short stay.
The so so - the flight path to San Diego airport is overhead and I found it noisy. Bring ear plugs to mute sound if you are a light sleeper. There was also a fair amount of “street noise” in the neighborhood which woke me early AM.
Dog beach is not great for people cleaning up after their dogs as it turns out. I ended up driving to Del Mar dog beach after stepping in poop barefoot when I went to OB the first time.
The AC unit is in one room - the bedroom - and living room and kitchen depend on it. I found the unit to be slightly inadequate for me but I happened to be in town during a heat wave.
The neighborhood was slightly unsavory and I had to park my car over a few streets at night. There are homeless people in the nearby area and it was a bit unnerving although my car never was damaged while I was visiting.
I would not book again given that I would opt for a different dog beach but I wouldn’t discourage others from staying here as the pros outweigh the so so’s…and Kyle and his wife were VERY responsive and sweet to me. Wonderful couple.
