We were in Long Beach in June, 2006 for a wedding traveling from Sacramento. I was so worried because we had recommended it to our friends from Japan. Then, after our bookings, I read one review that was very negative; however, we were relieved when we saw our room.

It overlooked the pool, and the room was large, very clean and wonderfully decorated. I particularly liked the idea of the plantation shutters. The drawbacks were the difficulty finding parking if you got back late at night, the neighborhood is just so-so; however, not as bad as I feared, no elevator, the outside color of paint is not flattering and the young man who was at the desk when we arrived could have used another pair of hands. He was very busy with everyone arriving at the same time, but he did a very good job. We would definitely stay here again.
