My husband and I are regulars to OB. We were familiar with this location, so we were excited to spend a very last minute weekend here during NYE. I have read several other reviews about the noise-yes it can be noisy but that’s expected with this location being right outside of the beach. It’s also next door to a popular restaurant so the noise of delivery trucks and trash trucks are to be expected. But it wasn’t anything too bad, for us at least. We met some really cool neighbors that live in the complex next door so they made us feel very safe about leaving our car parked out front. The only negative I would say is the pictures show a front patio, we stayed in #3 which had a patio but faced the back alley and parking lot. Otherwise it was a great weekend!
