This was my first time renting a room on Airbnb. I have only rented entire homes mostly because I like my own space. I was very hesitant to book a shared space but don't be!! Gena is an amazing host. The location couldn't get any better. Close to the beach, second street (Belmont Shores), and downtown long beach. The value for her place is amazing. The room has tons of space and its own private bathroom. Her home is fully stocked with breakfast, snacks and coffee. Freddie her little dog is so friendly, quite and just so adorable. I will definitely book with Gena again the next time I'm back in Long Beach.
