big thank you to ekwegh for the lovely place! it's small and comfortable - great for one or two people. my bf and i stayed for about three weeks and had no issues with the place itself! the kitchen, dishwasher, washer/dryer was so helpful for a longer stay! the area can be a little scary, so be careful when you're out on the street - especially at night, you're completely safe in the building though. that being said, the place is walking distance to all the good spots that long beach has to offer - the pike, shoreline village, the aquarium, alamitos beach; vons and starbucks is also conveniently close - not even a 5 min walk! the place is also fully stocked with everything you need, from all the basic cooking appliances to laundry stuff and toiletries! and if you needed something or something was running low - ekwegh was only a text away and she'd instacart me the items! super easy to communicate with her which made our stay a breeze! the only issue my bf and i had was the parking - not a lot of free street parking available - such a busy area, we illegally parked most nights and we endured 2 parking fines. ekwegh did mention that there isn't a lot of parking so we weren't shocked at first - there is paid street parking that's only open for a certain amount of time but come on ahaha we would rather get the free street parking. if you don't have a car then it's no issue for you. overall, the place is super cute and well stocked, located in a great area that's close to tourist attractions but parking and some sketchy people can be an issue - but do not let that stop you from staying in this place. i would recommend it and we would definitely stay again if we are ever in long beach. the place was so HOMEY that after a few days, my bf and i started calling the place "home". we could of said let's go back to the AIRBNB, i forgot something at the AIRBNB but instead we said let's go back HOME and i forgot something at HOME. thank you again ekwegh :))
