Great place for a couple! Access to 2nd street was very easy, with just about anything you need is there. We found the bed very comfortable. John was great responding to any questions we had. Parking was a challenge, we got parking on the street but had a little walk after finding it. The Belmont Shores area is very popular. The beach is a short walking distance away and is beautiful. We were in apartment 4, and found it to be pretty quiet. You can really enjoy Long Beach with a comfortable stay at John's place.
