Let me just first start with a little disclaimer.
Reading some of the previous reviews, i can see a lot of people have had an issue with the parking.
As a Long Beach native, let me just say that finding parking in the downtown district has always been and will always be difficult, due to the fact that the city is purposely gearing towards public transit and transportation to be the main source of travel. That being said, finding a parking space during business hours is never difficult. So find a spot between 8am-4pm, and either Uber or rent a scooter to get to your destination from there.
As far as the property goes. Given that all the buildings in the downtown area were all built over a century ago, they did an amazing job of making this place feel retrofitted and modern, with the really well done decor and especially comfortable amenities. The mattress was extremely comfortable and the kitchen made you feel like you were right at home in your own dining set up.
The communication with the owners was literally like they were sitting and waiting on call and were incredibly responsive and accommodating.
And the location was by far worth the money in itself. Beach access brings you right on to the bluffs where you can rent bicycles, or scooters and ride the path all the way downtown or just grab a blanket and towels and enjoy the water.
This was overall one of the better experiences I’ve had at an Airbnb and would 100% recommend. Hopefully we can book this location on our next visit!
