our experience started off not so great, as the lockbox code was wrong and we waited outside for a couple of hours while trying to contact the host. host was unresponsive. eventually we contacted airbnb to cancel and get a refund, which we did, and the host reached out shortly after. she explained her situation which we were pretty understanding of, and she let us stay there anyway, after we had received our refund. we were very thankful for this, as we were only in town for 2 nights and had a limited time to do what we had to do in long beach. it would have been a nightmare to attempt to find a new place to stay at 4:30 pm. it was an inconvenience but luckily the host was nice enough to let us stay.
side notes about the space itself: the shower is very small, and there is no full-length mirror. the unit is on the end which is nice so no one is walking by the door to get by. the neighbors and people in the complex are very nice and friendly!
