We loved Marina's place. It's so cozy and nice that we felt at home right away. It's very well located, very close to Long Beach's 2nd Street with all it's stores, bars and nice cafes. All in walking distance. But you could even use the bikes that Marina offers for free. And yet it is an absolutely quiet and safe neighborhood. Marina was a great host and always available when we had a question. Check-in and -out was easy. We definitely will stay there again when we come back to Long Beach.
