This place is perfect if you want to be within walking distance to so many different things. Most important for me was proximity to the beach -- about a 15 min walk. The beach is beautiful and wasn't crowded. You're also about a 20min walk to Retro Row (I think that's what it's called) which is full of fun locally owned retro + boutique shops + locally owned restaurants. You can walk the other direction and find yourself in the heart of downtown Long Beach which offers more locally owned businesses + restaurants.
The apartment itself is perfect for a getaway. The king size bed is comfortable and I found all the things I needed to cook when I preferred to not eat out. Oh and you do have your own parking spot which I quickly learned was a super bonus. It was perfect in all the ways I needed and would definitely stay here again!
