We stayed first weekend in October and really enjoyed our stay. The location was absolutely perfect! We went to Long Beach (Alamitos) the first day and it was literally only 5 minutes away! We enjoyed the welcome book placed on the table that was full of great tips for food places and things to do around the city. We also really enjoyed all the small touches in the house. Glasses, bathroom items, extra blankets, and items to use at the beach! We did have our own beach tent, but the extra umbrella provided with the stay was helpful for our little one. The house does not have central air, but there are 2 A/C units provided in the home. You can move and adjust them as you see fit. We also opened the windows and front door to get a nice breeze from outside and we were absolutely fine. One of the biggest plus of our stay was this home comes with designated parking! Oh man! It was such a lifesaver when we would be gone all day and be able to just come back at night and immediately park. If you get a chance, you can walk to bars, restaurants, and coffee shops which are literally like a block over. We had no issues with noise or neighbors, and our host were exceptional in communication! We really appreciated the quick responses and their hospitality. In fact, an iPhone was left behind and our wonderful host contacted us right away about returning it. If you’re going to be in the Long Beach area and are looking for a place to stay, this is definitely it. We will FOR SURE be staying here again when we return.
