Chris was a wonderful host. Very thoughtful and responsive anytime I had a question and encouraged me to make myself at home. Also flexible/agreeable despite many changes to the timing of my trip.
The place was even lovelier than the photos. Very comfortable bed -- I slept great! Also had a lovely relaxing soak in the tub.
I recommend a lovely walk along the shore by the marina, the nearby Thai restaurant, and visiting the Museum of Latin American Art which is free admission on Sunday (walk or a quick bus ride).
I'd gladly stay with Chris again if I come back to Long Beach.
