I would highly recommend Andre’s beach pad in Ocean Beach if you are looking to stay in the area. The location can’t be beat if you want to enjoy everything that Ocean Beach has to offer. The beach is at the end of the block, and there are 3 great restaurants, a coffee shop, and a brew pub a half a block from the front door. Then there are dozens of other restaurants and shops within the next 4 to 5 blocks.
That may sound like the place is on a busy and noisy street but it is really not. It is sort of located in a sweet spot one street over from one of busier streets in Ocean Beach. So even though the place is close to the everything the noise level is no louder than your average city neighborhood street.
It has a very comfortable patio that feels surprisingly private since it a is few feet above street level. And the unit is very nicely furnished and decorated. It has a very cool shower and nice size kitchen too.
And the great thing about staying in Ocean Beach is that if you have a car you can get from the beach to most of downtown and the city neighborhoods of San Diego in about 20 minutes.
