We had a wonderful stay, and I would definitely come back if I return to Long Beach. That said, two things to be aware of in case this will drive you crazy:
- The parking situation is tricky. It will probably work out just fine, But the lot is tiny and hard to maneuver, and fills up anyway
- The WiFi was not good, so we couldn't watch anything

But for the great price and location totally worth it to me.

We had a wonderful stay. So close to the beach and walkable to other places. Our room was clean and quiet. Absolutely loved the soft bed, the best night sleep EVER! Only one issue with the shower head, it was clogged hard water and sprayed everywhere and water leaked out of the shower. The staff was user friendly and were helpful with parking. We will be staying again.

So let’s start off with the fact that we were displaced due to the Garden Grove Chemical spill. We thought that this would be temporary and chose to go on a mini vacay to Belmont shores. Although the photos on Expedia was slightly deceiving, we had a pleasant stay. My husband loved the place, I was thinking we should have splurged and gotten a King size room instead of the Queen, but this place was expensive and not knowing exactly how long we would be displaced, I did t want to “splurge” too much.

The staff was super nice, friendly and helpful. The place was recently renovated, so everything was in good condition. The room was clean and the bed was comfy. There was a lot of natural light. The location was great since it’s in walking distance to some restaurants (which has good food) and the pier. There was even a nearby Vons, 7-11, AM-PM and liquor store. All within walking distance. Parking is a little tricky since they have a small park lot with room for maybe….4 or 5 cars (I don’t recall.) There’s plenty of street parking, but depending on where you park there’s a time limit.

There are no amenities here except for a small mini fridge that you can place drinks. No ice machine, pool, etc.

Overall it was a pleasant stay. We would have tried to stay for one more night since we couldn’t go home yet, but to spend close to $300 for another night was a little out of our budget.

The facility on the outside is not exactly in the nicest of or the newest, but the inside of the hotel is very, very clean and updated. My only complaint was they didn’t have a small coffee maker or waters in the fridge and I was charged $20 an hour for being led into the room three hours early after getting off my ship at 8:30 in the morning, they did allow us to store our luggage and go walk around .

This booking was from Tuesday to Saturday everything that happened was on the first day the area was not busy at all and this whole situation could have been easily resolved by Expedia and the hotel.

The air conditioning does not go below 66 and stays on for exactly 3 minutes so the room becomes humid and unbearable this is unnecessary to control the temperature this strictly because the temperature is inconsistent and uncomfortable. The area around the hotel has people walking around with ski masks looking through cars and drug addicts l walking up to the doors of the hotel trying to get in without any security to stop them or a gate to separate the street from the property. I have never left a hotel for feeling unsafe before and left this hotel the first night due to people coming to the door and trying to get in. Even after all the concerns and pleading with Expedia to transfer me to a different hotel or give me a refund, both Expedia and the hotel refused to honor a refund because I didn’t speak to someone at the front desk when there was no one available to speak to!!!! What is Expedia for if they do not do anything to resolve issues that arise and hotels refuse to provide any assistance. Horrible experience don’t stay here and don’t use Expedia it’s gotten so bad.

The site indicates parking, but they were doing renovations, so the small lot was unavailable due to storing new furniture there. The bathroom door was noisy and they didn’t fix it ( pocket door), the WIFI was terrible and half the time the live TV didn’t work, because we had to park on the streets, our car was covered in Parrott poop, so we had to pay for a car wash and lastly, a couple upstairs above us fought and screamed the entire evening and through the night. When I called the desk they said they would do something and they did talk to the people, but they didn’t stop and no further action was taken. We were not able to sleep all night. I asked for the night to be credited and they would only offer $50 off and with more insistence, they went up to $75. People shouldn’t have to be subjected to all the issues we had and they never even warned us ahead of time that parking wouldn’t be available after day two and the owner lied and said it would clear up in a day or two and as of the 5th day, the lot was still littered with furniture boxes. It’s a very noisy place with no regard for guests, so I will never stay there again. The location is good, so if noise and inconvenience don’t matter to you, at least you’re near the beach.

This place would honestly get a better review if it wasn’t for the parking situation. The parking lot is so small it’s hard to park when there is more than 2 cars in the parking lot. You have to maneuver at 16 point turn. Otherwise, the service is phenomenal, the owner/front desk manager is great. He is very helpful, he will come out and help you park if needed. The room was small which wouldn’t normally be a problem but for me personally I had a toddler and it was cramped in the room with one bed. It is perfect walking distance from the beach, but no views from the hotel due to another condominium across the alley way. I’m not sure if the area was actually kinda sketchy or if the alley made it feel that way but for a single traveler with a toddler it felt a little uneasy at night. There’s no breakfast as far as I could tell, but there’s a Jack in the Box right next to it. The shower and bathroom were nice, and it was decently clean. The AC worked really well. I wanted to give it a better review for what it was, very affordable and great if you are there for the beach (as we were). If they upgraded the parking we would definitely come back.

This property is an average motel/hotel in an ok area. It is close to the ocean and a few blocks away from a nice group or restaurants. The property has been refreshed recently, but the furniture is broken, chipped, and the place feels run down. There was an unhoused person sleeping both in front and behind the hotel when I arrived. My air conditioner didn't work in my room, so they switched me to a new room. The room was clean, but the bedding had holes in it. The staff called me about parking even though I didn't have it and didn't ask for a car. They also called multiple times to confirm the time I was checking in. It was a very affordable hotel and functioned for my needs, but I wouldn't recommend it or choose to stay there again.

The room had modern updates, and no carpet which is nice, but the online photos are definitely enhanced (for both inside and outside). The room had some wear and tear and you can tell the building is older. The bed and pillows were not very comfortable but for one night it was okay. The building from the outside and the neighborhood were interesting but you are one block from the beach. Not sure I would stay in this area again. Staff was very friendly. My impression online was cute botique hotel, but in reality it was an older and very small motel with some modern updates in the rooms.
