I choose AirBnB stays because I value supporting alternative, self-determining economies and I love feeling "at home" when I travel. I didn't give this place five stars because I have a feeling that this is a corporate owned spot...I asked for clarification but didn't receive an answer. The place lacks the kind of personal touches and individualized vibe that I am used to with AirBnBs. There was not a way to recycle (which is the kind of thing that all the other AirBnB's that I've stayed in have found a way to prioritize) and once you enter the gated walk way there appear to be 12 units that are all part of this stay system. All that said...Popi was very responsive (except when I asked if she owns the place or manages it for a company). I LOVE the location...we felt very at home and safe in the neighborhood and everything that we came to Long Beach to experience was extremely close. Parking was a bit of a challenge, but we always found a great spaces within a reasonable amount of time. The place was really very nice inside and was very quiet during our stay. I am going to do some checking to see if AirBnB is shifting it's focus.
