Wendell was the quintessential AirB&B host. He met me at the garage, directed me in parking my car, and walked me up to the apartment/room. He gave me a tour of the apartment/room and bathroom as well as the rest of the condo. It's a lovely space. Also Wendell added some special touches - provided some food basics, restaurant and store recommendations - and just plain great conversation. He also is very simply a very kind and interesting man. I hope we keep in touch. Finally, the condo is very conveniently located. It was easy to walk down to Ocean Blvd and participate in my conference for a fraction of the cost of the conference hotel. Long Beach has some great restaurants, too. Great stay all in all.
