Wendell's place is a gorgeous, modern loft in Long Beach! Check-in was relatively easy, even though we got in very late (or very early) after visiting with family. Wendell was a great host: he was accommodating, communication was a breeze, and there was even a tray in our room with an assortment of packaged toiletries (like a hotel!). The room was very clean and it's private entrance was a huge plus. We didn't feel like we were inconveniencing Wendell when we were going in and out. The bed was very comfortable and I didn't even realize it was an air bed until the next day! The bathroom is shared, with an entrance from the hall and one from the master bedroom, but it was never a bathroom-use conflict issue. The next morning, Wendell offered us coffee or tea and showed us out when we left.

The only issues I had here were with the bathroom. Though it was extremely clean and very spacious (there's a double vanity where one side is completely clear and dedicated to guests), I really hope he fixes the seal on the shower door, because it floods the ENTIRE bathroom when you take a shower. He was aware of this but didn't let us know ahead of time and I ended up panicking the next morning, sopping up water and changing out floor mats for 10 minutes before I got dressed. Afterwards, when I told him, he said, "Yeah, that happens sometimes, the door doesn't seal properly, sorry". Also, the shower drain was clogged, so the water ended up pooling around my ankles (but that wasn't the cause of the flooding). If those two things get remedied, your stay will be perfect.
