Overall, it was a good stay.
1) It is a great location - there were not many places to accommodate our group of 5 in OB. It is very convenient being so close to the beach (especially the dog beach which is our favorite!) and many restaurants and breweries (highly recommend Mike Tacos Club and Mike Hess Brewery).
2) Linda was very accommodating as she graciously allowed us to store some luggage in the garage prior to check-in and departure.
3) Having access to a grill, laundry, and outdoor space was a major plus.
4) Although the parking space is small, it was helpful to have as street parking can be limited.
5) Great shower and bathroom. Plenty of toilet paper and bath supplies.
6) It was a quiet neighborhood and although the houses are very close together, we had no issues with loud or rude neighbors.
There were a few things that could be improved upon that would have made our experience even more enjoyable.
1) As there is no air conditioning - we had most of the windows/doors open when we were there to cool the place off. Many windows and all the doors were missing screens. It's a safe neighborhood, but it was a little unsettling sitting there with the front door wide open. Especially when the stray neighborhood cat would wander in from time to time, lol. And there were several flies that found their way inside. It would get pretty stuffy when we would be out during the day with everything closed up.
2) The furniture could use an upgrade. Two of the three beds were quite uncomfortable and squeaky. The bed in the back room (with the half bath) was very comfortable though. As others have mentioned, the glass dining table is not secure and if you would put pressure on one side of the table, the other side would lift up. The kitchen was missing some cabinet doors and 2/4 of the stove burners did not light. Also - the TV was not plugged in when we arrived. We connected everything and were only able to get a few random channels. Of note, there is no Roku/streaming availability. It was nice having the patio - but the furniture could use an upgrade.
Overall, I would give the stay a B-, but the place could use a little extra TLC to make it A+
