This a beautiful little apartment, overlooking the ocean about a block back from a beach / park area. The adjacent park has has quite a bit of activity on weekends. Try the local diners a block away, or do your own cooking like I did.
You can explore the tidal pools with a walk down by the rocks just across the street, or enjoy the beach. It's about 20 minutes to downtown Long Beach (shopping, restaurants and modern downtown), but beware of the construction and pay attention to your maps.
Parking is limited, so be prepared for competition for limited street parking on weekends. Weekdays are better.
Lovely place. Check it out. :-)
