No housekeeping during stay. If you need something you go ro front desk to ask for it. We paid for 2 adjoining rooms with a ocean view. If i stood on the bed I could see it over the trees. My room was at 1 end and the other room was at the opposite end of the building. Check out is at 11am. My husband ran part of our luggage out around 9am and the card was already turned off. Good thing we didn't go to breakfast before getting our belongings out because we would have been locked out of our room.

The staff was not eager to help at check in. It took a while to get extra towels and when we received them I watched her drag them on the ground as she tried to fold them and walk. The vending machine took my money, which is the only means of convenience they have for drinks. They refused to compensate me for over five dollars. Besides general access to the beach and general parking I dont believe this hotel is worth the stay price.

The Oceanview property was surprisingly better than even the photos depicted. Room was clean and large, beds comfortable, plenty of towels and soaps etc. The ownership outdid the standard fare of most places that only provide minimum amenities. Here, they offered extra amenities. We have visited Long Beach for several years, and I must admit this is the best hotel we have stayed in all those times. God willing, we will stay here every trip in the future.

It was a bargain hotel in a good location. Nothing fancy, but good for the price for a couple of nights. NO BREAKFAST, just Keurig coffee and a muffin. But there are a couple of breakfast places within walking distance - better than standard hotel breakfasts. Room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. For as many people as I saw in the morning, it was very quiet. I thought I was there by myself.

Our room was clean and felt like it was updated in the recent past. It was hard to get to sleep as we heard what sounded like a helicopter nearby and could only get rid of the noise by wearing earplugs. My wife could feel the bed shaking lightly from whatever was causing it. We let the person at the front desk know about it on the second day, but it was never fixed. The overall stay was fine, the shower was great and the bed was good. AC worked well. I would stay here again if they fixed the helicopter noise.

For breakfast there were only few small little pastry, and one kind of fruit and coffee, Staff was good. The person answering at the front desk was also doing some cleaning. Very near the beach.. walking distance..and downtown too..It's a nice hotel but needs more outside cleaning so it looks better when guests first arrive. But in general , yes ,we did enjoy spending the night there.

This place doesn't really offer a breakfast menu.They did have some coffee.And some doughnuts & cookies available, Room was clean, parking was close to my room. The room I booked was on the lower level, so I didn't directly happen.Ocean view which was fine. The kids like the place, and that's all that really matters to me. Is that they had a good time? It's not too far of a walking distance to the beach itself. You can also drive down.But we chose to walk. I got this place at a pretty good rate. I would probably stay here again. Overall satisfied

We had a great stay here on the weekend of July 4th, ocean view and lots of people watching going out the beach, right from our room in our two recliner chairs. It was a quick walk out to the festivities and we could see the fireworks from our room once we decided to go back. We saw a deer right out our window grazing. The hotel was very walkable to stores, restaurants and shops. The room was clean and updated, the owner was super nice.

This hotel was wonderful. Our view of the ocean from the 3rd floor was fantastic. The room was clean. The location is perfect with easy access to the beach and walkable to restaurants and shops. The only drawback was that we did not have hot water in the morning and when we called the front desk, we were told that everyone in the hotel must be taking a shower at the same time and to wait 30 min. Two hours later we still didn’t have hot water in the shower and we didn’t get to shower before we checked out at 11. I would stay there again in the hopes that they fix their hot water system.

Lots of parking available. I loved our ADA room, even though I didn't ask for it specifically, because I had surgery three weeks ago. And the extra bars in the bathroom and how big the room is was a big surprise plus! Our room wasn't ready at 4, it was a busy day, but the closeness of the shops, bars, restaurants, beach and bathrooms is a huge plus if you have to kill some time! I only wish the room had a portable fan in it and more pillows. I brought my own due to post surgery issues and am so glad I did! This is our favorite place to stay in Longbeach, we highly recommend it and this cute little beach town.

Love the giant monstera plant in the office area. My room was a single bed, clean, massively oversized for a single person. Everything was clean and functional. The best perk?

Do not recommend! Stayed for 5 days in room 206. Dirty room with furniture not dusted and mold in the shower. There are smashed bugs on the ceiling above the shower and what looks like blood stains on the front door that could be easily wiped off. Very dirty hotel. Housekeepers did not come by to make our room or replenish toiletries or towels our whole stay. The only time they came by was to ensure we were checking out on time on our last day - and they did that twice. Worst of all, our toilet clogged from regular use and when I went to let the front desk know, the bum at the front desk tried handing me a plunger. Not sure how this hotel has such high reviews on this website. Beware.

The property is called “Ocean View Inn at the Arch.” I booked an “ocean view” room and requested the top floor through Expedia (which offered a better price than booking directly through the hotel website). Unfortunately, the room was on the second floor and, at best, had only a partial view rather than a true ocean view. There is also a 5½- to 6-minute walk from the hotel parking area before you actually reach the sand, and tall trees and shrubs in front of the property further obstruct the view.
When I asked about the top-floor request—which I had made at the time of booking—I was informed by the hotel manager that it is against hotel policy to place guests who book through third-party sites in the “good rooms.”

GREAT location without a doubt! 3 floors with an elevator. VERY close to the beach.
However, the office closes at 8 pm so if one is going to arrive after that, better notify
them ahead of time.
Also, there basically is NO breakfast. There is a Keurig coffee maker and 1/4 size mini muffins with nowhere to sit.
Unfortunatly the hot water coming out of the shower/tub combo was trickling out, cold water had great pressure.
Sink had great hot/cold water pressure.
Other than the \"breakfast\" and hot water pressure, the place would of been 5/5 star.
BIG room with Fridge, generic coffee maker with pods, microwave.
They had 2 very comfy recliner chairs to watch TV in with a seperate swivel office chair next to a table.
