We enjoyed our short visit at Yumi and Bill’s “Little Japan” room. The room was clean, spacious and filled with Japanese décor (Note: We loved our time in Japan, so we intentionally chose this particular room). Their cozy home is located in a quiet neighborhood and within walking distance to a small beach/park area. An added bonus is the rooftop area of their home, which has a cool view of Terminal Island.

This small town (San Pedro) has a mix of large, well-known restaurant chains (e.g. McDonalds, KFC, Subway) and local eateries. Its located in close proximity to Long Beach and a 30-minute drive to LAX, but doesn’t have the hustle-and-bustle.

Bill and Yumi extended such warm hospitality during the visit. They provided all of the essentials for a comfortable stay and great conversation. We recommend this to other AirBnB guests traveling to the southern Los Angeles area, but want some isolation from the big city.
