We had a great stay at Gaytonia! I am born and raised in Long Beach so trust me when I say, the location is phenomenal and the building is iconic! The owners have done a lot of work to modernize the historic building. That said, keep in mind that this is an old structure. This means a true lift (instead of the modern elevator), awesome decor including suits of armor, and beautiful architecture. But also thin walls, non-insulated windows, and an old radiator. The radiator was noisy and would wake us up in the middle of the night. If you’re staying here during the winter months, I would be mindful of this and maybe bring some ear plugs. You can’t expect to have authentic historic charm without a few outdated items! But again, the apartment itself feels and looks very modernized. Other than the intermittent sleep, we had a great stay. The hosts were attentive, communicative, and accommodating. The apartment was very spacious and well-designed. I’m positive that if I had reached out regarding the radiator, they would have helped find an alternative solution. Thank you again for your hospitality!
