First the good - The location is hard to beat. If you are looking for a place close to the ocean, in a great neighborhood, this is it. It is a half block away from a view of the sunset over the ocean. There are a ton of places to eat and drink in the neighborhood you can walk to , which is great if you don't have a car. There is a beach you can walk to, which is also great.
The unit itself is plenty of room for 1-2 people and the bed is comfortable. There is a nice shared patio to bbq or relax after sightseeing.
Now for the not so good. Communication was initially good. However, our second day there the fuse in the kitchen was tripped when we used the microwave and coffee maker at the same time. I messaged Doug and he did not respond for two days. When he did respond, it was kind of snappy, which is not ideal. We didn't consider this an after hours emergency and expected him to respond to our multiple messages, as he had previously. I would think if you are having issues with notifications, you could mention that, and have the guest text if there are any issues. We had to throw out the groceries we had bought, since the fridge did not work.
Overall, I think the place is a good value and Ocean Beach is a great place to stay. I would just hope the communication would be a little better.
