Kira's place has a great location with a view of the water, a quick walk to beach, restaurants, the pier etc. From the house, it's a quick ride into the city center or Balboa Park. The parking spot was great as parking is almost impossible to find. If you come to OB you come with the understanding that you will be under the airplane fight path from 6:30am to 10pm. Also understand that OB is a hippie locale and surfer hangout then you can take all the local activity in stride. We would book again!
