I had a long term 6 week stay at Dorothy’s beach studio. The place was clean and had all the amenities mentioned. Dorothy also accommodated my request for some extra items. One thing to mention is that the main door has an inside lock that had me locked out for a bit, it would be nice if that could be removed or if other guests could note not to lock it from inside.
I also had some miscommunication re: long term stay charges(after 30 days Airbnb puts a surcharge on your stay) which the host also wasn’t aware of, and because of her busy schedule it was a little tough communicating. But Dorothy was very kind to refund me what she could and was rather accommodating. Overall, I had a very pleasant stay. The place is safe and Elizabeth keeps the place mint clean. I had some trouble with the stove but that was replaced. The bed is a little too soft for anyone with back problems (I took a few days to adjust). The set up and design however are very homely and soothing.
All in all, it was great, I will give it a 4-4.5/5 rating. Other than the little miscommunication re charges and difficulty getting through to the hosts, there were not much major issues. I will definitely recommend staying here long term and I will gladly book again to stay at the beach studio in my future visit to Long Beach :) thank you for a lovely stay Dorothy & Laura!
