Jan and Dale were great hosts and the apartment was perfect for a small family of three (1 toddler). We are former Long Beach residents who were back in town to visit and found this to be the perfect launching pad in terms of the location and the place itself. The location is a quiet residential area close to the beach and commercial district of Belmont Shores. The apartment is very well-designed, was immaculately clean, and well-stocked with goodies of all kinds -- from a complimentary bottle of wine to fresh fruit and a variety of other snacks. They really go out of their way to make it a comfortable place to stay. I give the place my highest recommendation! We'll be back.
