OB is a great place to stay! We were half a block to the beach, a few blocks to Pizza Port (30+ beers and sours on tap), Hodad’s awesome burgers, OBSurf Lounge and Voltaire beach house (weekend bottomless guava mimosas!) for breakfast, Hugo’s Cocina, Kaiserhof Biergarten... so many things to love! June gloom is a thing though. Wish we had a smaller car so we could’ve used the dedicated parking space in back. Parking on the street was a challenge, but I got my steps in. Airplane noise was loud when door was open, but not bad with it closed.
