Let me begin by saying that I am a germaphobe, and am very particular about cleanliness. Having said that, I found the guesthouse spotlessly clean and spacious. The location is perfect and there are a lot of places to visit nearby (parks, restaurants, etc.). The neighborhood is quite and the neighbors are friendly. Speaking about the hosts (Todd and Maya), they are as good as it gets. They will answers all your questions with a smile, help you (they allowed me to check out a little late, provided new sheets and yummy refreshments) and make you feel at home. I loved my stay and will definitely visit them again if I am in Long beach. So.go ahead and book your stay without worrying :)
