My room was huge, but comfy and clean. I loved that there were bedside lamps and not the cold overhead can lights. The room was warm, so it took a while to cool down. The bed was comfy but the side chairs needed to be cleaned. Otherwise, it was a nice over overnight stay.
It was clean and very close to our events and restaurants.

Its the cheapest place you can find in the area and dont expect too much. Its old and in some areas it smelled bad. For a night or 2 it is fine but not more than that. There is a very basic breakfast included and it was a nice touch. Check in and out was a breeze.

Room was comfortable. Convenient location to the cruise port.
Perfect for my stay for a convention! The staff was responsive and helpful, and when I encountered an error with my booking (my fault), they were incredibly understanding and proactive. The rooms were clean and comfortable. An excellent value for a room in a stellar location!
Affordable, good location. Not glamorous but decent

The staff was very friendly. It is in a great location. This is an older property and has obviously had some updating but still feels older. It was clean and maintained. The parking situation is poor at best. Few parking stalls and is first come, first served. So don’t leave for dinner, you might need to park in neighborhood. I liked the bed, wife said it was to firm. I will stay there again.
Parking on site, clean room, near beach and downtown, breakfast is seriously lacking, manger doesn’t replenish fresh fruit or juice once consumed by other guests, adjoining kitchen showed more fruit and juice ready to be served but manger only replaces bread and croissants. More breakfast options would be nice, and the replacement of foods once taken by other guests would be nice .

Convenience of location. Close to Downtown Long Beach, restaurants and shopping!
We put my son up for the weekend there, so I wasn't the one using the room. It was fine great location in downtown Long Beach, near to the beach and groceries.
I didn't like arriving with people smoking joints in the parking lot in their cars. I appreciate the no smoking policy, however. Would be nice to have a designated area outside, away from view--just wishful thinking.

I would not even bother saying they have a continental breakfast. Broken ice machine. Not enough parking for guests. Few homeless roaming the area, would not recommend walking alone. Rooms were cool and clean, no fridge or microwave in the rooms. I stay at the one in Bishop and the difference is night and day.
