Spacious & Clean Design Home near Downtown

  We had a great stay. This was my first time back in OB since I left almost 30 years ago. It was like memory lane. OB is... read more its own special place....from crazy people to college students to tourists....very eclectic place. The pad was perfect for me, my wife and 10 year old kid. Beds were comfy, everything worked....its old but cute. We did Sea World, Wild Animal Park, USS Midway, Old Town and Birch Aquarium....OB is so close to everything. I'm a foody so I normally cook on stays like this....I did cook an elaborate Easter Meal and the place had all I needed. Other than that...way too many great local spots to walk to every day for dinner. We had our Golden Retriever with us who lived the good life on this trip....every day we took multiple walks to Dog beach, which is 2 blocks away. We also both worked a couple of days and the Internet was good enough for this. Internet went down one day and we got it fixed with the help of Scott. We had a great relaxing stay.

  It was a great little place. It is located in a very touristic neighborhood. A lot of noise on a Saturday night. Sunday was a lot more quiet. Overall a... read more good place to stay.

  This place seemed like a nice place to stay. Would've really enjoyed it had we stayed the full time we had planned on. We showed up during a heat wave... read more and walked into a house that was 92 degrees inside. We followed the directions that were given to us by the host and closed all the windows and such for the AC unit. The temperature proceeded to go up to 97 degrees at times. The unit was working but it wasn't enough for the size of the place and for how hot it was. We stayed for the first day and left. I'm sure with normal weather it would've been fine in there. We rented to have a place to hang out but with the forecast, it seemed like that wasn't going to happen through the week. I contacted the hosts about the situation but they really didn't help. After we had left, I received a message from the host 3 days later answering one of my messages from days prior. Curious, I called support. Airbnb support had said they cancelled the time we left, they didn't until 3 days later when I contacted them. They never let the host know. I got $20 back from Airbnb support and nothing from the hosts. One of the worst experiences I've had travelling. I understand that there was a heat wave. I get that that there's only so much people can do but it wasn't worth staying in that heat.
