Lovely apartment, the area seemed to be on the border of a gentrified area. Great restaurants nearby, but a lot of homeless people in the area that often times were right next to or across from the property. Emma's property was very secure with locked fences, doors, security cameras and sensor lights. I LOVED that feature. Inside was very clean - lots of supplies there were helpful. We stayed for 5 nights and could have used more toilet paper than was provided (1.5 rolls). Very accessible to ubers and getting anywhere from LA to Carson (we were there for an event) with ease.
She requires you to pay for wifi, which I think should be included in the rental like it is for many hotels and other airbnbs.
Communication was not the greatest. She is accessible via phone for texting, but doesn't respond to everything or will text you back when she has a question or need, leaving yours unanswered.
As advertised- Netflix was available with the Roku as part of the rental. It worked the first evening and after that a message regarding a payment for it popped up. There was no reply the first evening. Then I checked and asked if she could reconnect the next morning. She said it was fixed, when I returned home it didn't appear to be working still so I contacted her again. We discussed that a code was needed - she gave me two, both unfortunately didn't work, but after I told her they were invalid she stopped replying and only texted me next to see when we were checking out. This was the only thing that worked on the television so the roku was useless as all other things were not subscribed to.
If you do want clean, secure, and in long beach definitely a great spot. I just am unsure on communication, had a larger problem occurred. Overall it was great- many other reviews stated communication was good so maybe just a fluke for us.
