The neighborhood and its neighbors were more than pleasant and respectful. All the surrounding businesses were very friendly and welcoming. Our only problem was the condition of the unit we were staying in. The smell of mildew was nearly unbearable even with air freshner. It was raining every day that we were there. The roof was leaking in two different areas, one above the kitchen area where we plugged in our electronics and one more severe leak above the bath tub. The tub did not drain well even after removing someone else's hair from the strainer. The bathroom sink did not drain. Making hand washing and teeth brushing unpleasant. The only other problem was the public washing machine/ dryer area. It was very dirty and outside. It didn't look very usable other than for rags or work clothes. I wouldn't wash or dry anything nice there. We would definitely stay in Ocean Beach again and would even stay with Doug again. Just not the same unit.
