Excellent Customer Care by Owner

This place is very nice, easy to access the beach and had excellent correspondence with the owner, she always replied right away, was kind, and gave great and clear instructions. It felt very homey due to all the amenities like smart TV with Netflix and YouTube, fully functional kitchen, and spacious closets. Lots of great restaurants at short walking distance. We loved it.

Good location

The location was great. A short walk from the convention centre. Look shops are even closer. The apartment block is dated. We met a few residents during our stay and they were very friendly. The beds were comfy and there was plenty of living space. Check in and check out was very, very quick. Sonja was very active in communication. A well managed property.

Super convenient location

At first I was cautious, I've been to Long Beach a few times and am familiar with this area, and its not bad. The building is secure so I felt completely safe here. The interior of the building is in need of paining, but when you enter the unit? Its SO cute and well decorated! I absolutely loved it. We stayed over a weekend and Saturday night was a little noisy with sirens and such, but its a city so it wasn't unusual for me (I'm from Vegas lol) Only one block away from Vons, close to restaurants, shops and about 10 minute walk time to the Pike. Super location! Communication with the host was excellent! absolutely NO complaints here. Will definitely stay again on my next tript.

NOT GOOD/FALSELY ADVERTISED! We reserved this apartment based on the photos provided, which ONLY show the inside of the unit. The ad asserts that the apartment is in a prime Long Beach area just 2 blocks away from the beach and nice restaurants. The pin provided is inconsistent with where the apartment is physically located! One would assume that the center of the graphic portrayed shows that we would’ve been within safe walking distance of nice restaurants and the beach. The ACTUAL location of the apartment is several blocks further AWAY from the beach and in an area of the city where high drug activity seems to be the norm 24/7. Also witnessed several individuals that appeared to be passed out on the sidewalks. There were ZERO photos that showed the outside of the building!! Had we seen the street view, we would NOT have reserved this location. I called the owner within 5 minutes of arriving at the apartment and let her know that we, a family of 4, were not comfortable staying in this location due to unsafe conditions of the neighborhood. I also told her that we felt misled by the advertisement for the reasons noted above. We ended up staying ONE night out of 3 we paid for (less than 12 hours). Our perspective is that the owner was NOT transparent about the location! Which seemed to be deliberate given the lack of details in her ad. Good luck finding a parking spot near the building! Try walking through that area on your next family vacation. No thanks. Save your money.

Great Location!

We were staying for a long four day weekend of Volleyball at the Convention Center. We enjoyed the apartment for 3 adults and 2 kids. The location is great! We were able to walk to the beach, boardwalk, restaurants and the Convention Center. It was quieter than I expected (only real noise was sirens here and there.) The neighborhood had amazing restaurants within walking distance and we enjoyed the food very much. There is also a convenience store just 1 block away. Parking was an issue and though there IS street parking...it is hard to find close to the apartment to load and unload the car. We parked at the Convention Center which felt safer than street parking. We were able to leave the car there the whole trip saving $$. There are quite a few unsavory type characters sleeping on the streets and hanging around the neighborhood but we went out as a group and we did not have any problems.

Convention Center

We were in town for a week long conference at the LB convention center. For us, we found the property to be well located, easy to access access, good neighbors in the building and reasonably clean. This is an older historic building, but everything worked. The management/owner was very responsive when we had questions. All in all a great stay.

WARNING!!!! Don’t rent this property!!

All I can say is scam!! The property owner started harassing me during our stay accusing me of having extra guests which we did not. She let me know she had been watching us come in and out of her property ( creepy) and knows we have extra guests. I explained before we checked in that we had extra guests and they would be staying at a near by hotel. We were still charged for extra guests even tho they did not stay at this property. I have reported her to the state of California and opened a claim with VRBO. I have never experienced a property owner like this. She is only out to scam people for extra money. Save yourself a major headache and book a different property.

Response from VrboOwner on 23 Feb, 2022
Unfortunately this happened a lot when people try to sneak in guests. Yes, we do have cameras outside the property and we clearly can see who check and out. On our listing profile, house rules and check in instructions we clearly state that ONLY REGISTERED GUESTS CAN STAY AT THE PROPERTY AT ANY TIME. Unregistered guests will be charged $49 per person per day! It’s became so normal for people to feel entitled to brake house rules and walk away with it, but not at this property. We have all documented and would gladly show anyone who needs to see it. And on the side note, Carie and her additional guests harassed our neighbors. They think it’s ok just to bring people in the unit, no big deal, they are center of the universe, completely disrespecting residents in our building. So if you are another Carie, PLEASE DON'T BOOK THIS PROPERTY! WE DON'T NEED DISRESPECTFUL PEOPLE!

Felt like it had not been properly cleaned.

Felt like it had not been properly cleaned especially with COVID 19. Objects underneath couch and the blankets on bed felt dirty. Also a camera on the door where it can see in the apartment when you open it which is invasion of privacy.

Kali was very young guest who came to party at our property. She brought 8 guests total but registered 2. We do have cameras in the building and outside our apartment, that is listed on our profile as well. Trying to sneak in people without paying for it is not something that we allow and she was unhappy about it. But clearly they were super young and nobody wanted to host them as they are problematic. They also smoked weed at our property so this review is not honest at all.

Good location- all needs met.

We enjoyed the location of our stay, the property was clean and owner communicative. We had a circuit go out and I appreciated an instant call back to help us solve the issue. It is a noisy part of the city and the air conditioner did have some clicking noise when it turned off and on so that disrupted sleep but overall the property had what we needed for our stay. Parking can be hit or miss so that added a bit of stress as well.

Perfect Getaway

This place is the most perfect location. Walking distance to anything you could need. Once we parked our car, we did not have to drive anywhere until we checked out. The apartment was so cute. We rode scooters all over the place. The beach is within eye shot of the apartment. Just perfect. We would highly recommend this home!

Unfortinately this was not an honest review, Luliia was upset about additional pet fee that she had to cover and as a result she decided to complain just about everything to avoid this charge. Writing this review was her way trying to hurt our rating.

Very Good Communication; Place Could Use a Deep Clean; Interesting Neighborhood

First, let me say that the communication was very good. Areas of Improvement: Place needs a deep clean (especially during Covid-19). KITCHEN: There was food and older condiments left for us to use (no thanks), the microwave was very dirty inside. LIVING ROOM: dusty floor; dirty sock and container under the sofa. MASTER BATH: Very low pressure water for the shower. MASTER BED: the linens smelled used, there were stains on the pillows and mattress. NEIGHBORHOOD: Unfortunately, the homeless population /activity makes walking around the area feel unsafe. On a positive note: The host was very responsive to test messages.

Could use more amenities like more towels, a blender, beach towels,etc. This would make it feel like a home away from home. Great response from owners when we needed them. Thank you
