We loved staying at Hilary's studio apartment. We traveled with our 20 month old daughter and dog. Everything is clean and comfortable and all the necessities are there. The location is amazing, just a block from the beach. We walked everywhere during our stay and only jumped in the car twice to go a few short miles to the aquarium and Trader Joe's. Lots of good restaurants and shopping, an awesome dog beach, farmers markets, parks and playgrounds all within a mile's walk. The neighborhood and apartment building felt very private and safe for city living. We slept with all the windows open as everyone else seems to do too. We would most definitely look to book this place again when we come back to Long Beach.
