This is a superb location if you are coming to Long Beach. The beach is one block down and the great shopping district of 2nd St is one block up. The Queen Mary and shoreline village, the aquarium is a few bus stops along. Everything you want is in the neighbourhood. The house is just awesome, it became home, immediately. There are lots of interesting things on the wall, travel books, DVDs and pictures of Paulines travels so as a fellow traveller you'll feel even more at home. Then there's the double bed.....this is like sleeping on a cloud of happiness, we have never ever slept so well on vacation, better than at home. We'll happily move in for good, this is now our second home XX Thank you Pauline.
