Pluses
o Great bathrooms. Strong high-tech shower in one bathroom, wonderful bathtub in the other
o Comfortable queen size mattresses
o Very walkable location to lovely Bluff Park beach
o Place is along a back alley and away from the very busy East Ocean Boulevard, so it is quiet.
o Good air conditioning system
o Nice coffee machine with large supply of coffee pods
o Very large living area with comfortable sofa and armchair, and dining room sitting large enough for six. (The rental is for four adults, but we invited our son who lives in Long Beach for dinner.)
o Well equipped kitchen
o Very large TV
Minuses
o The sideways orientation of the mattress in the larger bedroom traps one occupant along the wall and makes it difficult to get in and out of bed without waking up the other occupant
o One bedroom is very small. No shelf to unpack suitcases in the smaller bedroom. Hardly enough space for two open suitcases on the floor
Those minuses are more than offset by the pluses.
