We had to book this at the last minute, when a different host cancelled our reservation on the same day. Ralph and his family were great! My family of five checked in very late after a day at Disneyland. There was plenty of space for our family. There were two full/queen size beds, and a queen size air mattress. Ralph's mother Carmen cooked breakfast for us every morning. It was a quick drive to downtown and the convention center.

The wifi worked great. Ralph installed a new Roku system for us so that the kids could watch tv. The fridge and pantry were fully stocked, and they refilled it throughout our stay. The last night, Carmen brought over some shrimp scampi and fried fish, along with fresh vegetables for me to add to the stir fry I was making.

They replied quickly to the couple of questions we had, and made our stay very comfortable. Carmen cleaned the house every day while we were out. The kitchen was well stocked, and we were even able to make use of the Vitamix to make some green smoothies in the mornings.

The neighborhood was quiet. We went for a couple of walks while we were there, and we felt perfectly at ease. Parking on the street was tight, but luckily there is a private driveway at this rental that we were able to use for the duration of our stay. The family lives in the back of the house, but the front is a self contained 2 bedroom 1 bath with a full kitchen. They gave us our privacy.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this rental to anyone wanting a quiet stay near downtown. If we make it back out to Long Beach, I'd love to stay here again.
