Perfect spot for my wife and me to get away from the heat in the desert and spend 3-days at the Long Beach Grand Prix. Communication was excellent with the Host and we really enjoyed the location. We easily parked on the street and although we did no cooking, the kitchen looked very nice. My wife noted that it was really nice having coffee and other small amenities that our hosts left for we guests. Five Stars!

Good place for a couple. Unit is ground floor of a 2-storey rear building. With buildings in front and to sides, not a lot of sunshine, but courtyards in front has more. Very clean. Eclectic array of decorations without feeling cluttered.

Thank you for the 5 star review. Many of my guests choose not to take the insurance option. This is not required and totally up to a guest. When any particular question comes up, I refer to the VRBO policies.
