Patty's place is the best value anyone can ask for. The location is one block (1 min walk) to the ocean or bayside of Mission Beach. She allows guests access of bikes, kayaks, and SUP boards! We had a lovely morning kayaking and used the bikes every single day! The apartment is small, but has everything you need, including amenities like: variety of cooking and serving utensils (pots/ pans/ mixing bowls/ graters/ silverware/ glasses, etc), a spice rack, some oils and vinegars (although they may have been leftover from previous guests). If grocery shopping, I would recommend taking a bike to Ralph's grocery store, a pleasant 10 minute bike ride with an ocean view. Bring a back/ duffle bag to carry food home and you'll be all set!
Patty was very flexible with us for check in times and even provided us with a restaurant gift card which we used for dinner on the first night!
If I am ever back, I would definitely stay here again!
If you want a great burrito, I recommend Sara's which is about a ten minute bike ride on Mission and Deal Street.
