This was a great little apartment for the price. Great location just a couple of blocks from the beach. Very clean, lots of windows, well stocked kitchen, beds very comfortable. Everything was in perfect working order and as advertised. Hostess was very responsive during the booking process and checking in on us during our stay. She provided very clear instructions and suggestions. We stayed in a second floor unit which gave us a view of the beach and the ocean breeze provided all the ac we needed. Dog friendly and also within just a few blocks from the dog beach. We had everything we needed. Highly recommend!!

Excellent property and location at OB. Far enough from the main strip to be peaceful, close enough to be convenient. Host was incredible and very responsive.

The apartment itself is great! Very clean, spacious and more than enough as far as amenities are concerned. We were very comfortable and impressed! Communication with the owner and prop manager was great as well, both were very responsive, helpful, and polite. The only downfall is the parking is horrible, but that can be typical for a beach town.

Perfect place

This property was in perfect condition and the property manager was very responsive. Everything seemed to be brand new/freshly renovated. From the kitchen appliances and utensils to the furniture and flooring and even the boogie boards in the closet, everything appeared new and exceptionally clean. Great location - minutes to the beach. We arrived on Memorial Day which made street parking difficult that day, but had no problems parking close the rest of the stay. Large washer and dryer in courtyard was great. Really the only critique would be that the cleaning crew left towels in one of the washers and one of the dryers for a couple days. My kids have voted this their favorite property in OB and we have been coming now for about 5 years.

Enjoyable stay!

Just spent five nights at this lovely place with my family, which includes two tweens. A few of the things to highlight: - the place was very clean, comfortable and extremely well stocked (not only the coffee/tea and a few basics in the kitchen, but the bathroom had a number of toiletry items you don't even get in a hotel) - the owner was not only very responsive (when I did have questions, I received an answer via text immediately), but also very proactive (but not intrusive). Always texting me if going to be unavailable and providing an alternative contact. Sending me ideas of attractions and restaurants. - the location is fantastic: Two blocks from the beach, a short walk from the street with groceries and restaurants, and short drives to everywhere else. And if you like dogs, like I do, this location is particularly amazing. Dogs everywhere! Three small things for people to consider: - the area itself is quite noisy. Just lots of people, cars, etc. So if you want complete quiet, you might want something less urban. We didn't mind it, but I can imagine it might be noticeable. - if you have a car, it is only street parking, which at busy times (weekends) can require circling a bit, or parking several blocks away. We always found a spot, and the weather is so amazing, we didn't mind it, but just be aware. - the overview said there was a washer/dryer, and one reviewer also mentioned it. However, there isn't a washer/dryer anymore. There is a laundromat a couple blocks away. The owner said they'd check the overview. Overall - a great place to stay if you are visiting San Diego and like being near a beach.
