Lisa is a generous soul and welcomed me and my sister for our one night stay. It was a dream to stay right across from the beach. She has an amazing patio. There was another AirBNBer staying at the same time; he was very kind and unobtrusive. Lisa recommended a great Indian restaurant within walking distance that had great vegan options. :) There is a dog in the house in case anyone is very allergic to dogs, but he did not come into our space. The Long Beach Marathon was taking place the weekend we stayed. We arrived around 7 pm and ended up parking about 10 blocks away. However, if the marathon had not been going on (happens once a year), I'm sure parking would have been fine. It was pleasant to walk around anyways -- I actually loved that we were a ways away because it gave us a chance to explore the neighborhood. All of the houses are so unique and beautiful... It was a serendipitous stay. Thank you, Lisa!
