Zach is a friendly hospitable host. His communication skills are top-notch. You won't wonder about a thing when you make a reservation to stay at his place. The house is so quaint...built in 1904. Don't miss that! :-) The thing that surprised us was the location...we felt totally safe (you never know in Long Beach). While the house was rather chilly for our liking there were plenty of warm blankets and we were comfortable.
