Pros:
Our stay at Chad's was very peaceful and cozy (: We had a small problem during check-in and the host was very understanding and refunded our stay for that day. The place is clean with a simple set- up w entertainment and stuff for cooking, and is perfect for a couple looking for a relaxing space in a quiet residential neighborhood. The beach is not too far and was close enough for us to walk to, and you can see the Long Beach port from there. (It's pretty to me). We also left an item and the host was very kind and arranged for us to pick it up.
Cons:
Parking. That's it. There's only street parking and for some reason the neighborhood is EXTREMELY overcrowded with cars to the point where even the red spaces and spaces with fire hydrants are filled with and some cars are even partially blocking driveways. Every time we came back to park, we would spend at least 10-20 minutes or more circling the radius of the house trying to find a space, and end up walking a distance from the car to the house. Towards the end we just started parking in the red bc those were the only spaces available.
Everything here is perfect just be aware of the parking situation. Host is kind and reachable and will respond quick to your issues.
