“CENTRAL loc, nice staff, ugly carpeting, bathroom floor old”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 June 2008
1
person found this review helpful

Walking distance to "everything", Pine St tourist area restaurants, Aquarium, Conv center, Ocean Dr, etc. The FREE LB city shuttle right across the st. Front desk staff and maids super nice. Appreciated the free internet wireless from my room. VONS across the street, OLD and dirty looking, bums hanging out in parking lot which has a guard. It's handy for bottled water, etc. They mentioned the breakfast no longer "upscale" which I didnt see anyway. Went across the st to "The Americana" restaurant, good food/prices. I would stay there again for the location and fair pricing.
Towels are thin/cheap, need better quality. Carpeting needs changed (old drab red) to look like the picture they have in their front window (bright clean green).

“Quite a decent place to stay”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 February 2008

We found the motel to be clean, but not upscale. About like a Motel 6; but I thought it was friendlier and therefore more comfortable.
We were there for the AKC Eukanuba Dog Show and the dogs were welcomed.
The staff and management were very pleasant and went out of their way to be helpful. I felt quite safe in the neighborhood which was quite charming with several restaurants within walking distance. Around the corner, on the same block, there were both a Courtyard Marriot and a Best Western. Free coffee and hot water were available in the lobby at all times, and the selection of breakfast snacks was adequate to our needs.
Besides a microwave and refrigerator in the room, the improvement I would make would be pillows with a little more substance to them.
I would definitely stay there again.

  • Liked — dog friendly, close to Convention center, nice neighborhood

“Bad News Inn of Long Beach”

DIRTY ROOMS- Their walk-in rate was lower than their on-line rate. Save $30 and DON'T BOOK ON-LINE. Save your self respect and stay somewhere else. The County sends their homeless here with reoom vouchers. Even the homeless deserve better.

“Showing its age a bit, but good for the price.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 June 2007

person found this review helpful

Stayed here three nights, hotel is aging, but a good choice for the price. includes juice and muffin cont breakfast.
Downtown Long Beach has deteriorated over the years, but had no problems and felt safe enough.
Lot of great restaurants within walking distance.
Staff was helpful, would stay here again on return visit.

“Eliminate the so-called continental breakfast!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 November 2005
1
person found this review helpful

Here, you get what you pay for! Includes a pool and the Inn at Longbeach looks worse from the outside, but the rooms appear clean. The place could use serious updating and good cleaning. Room averages $55 a night in fall.

And for bloody christ sake, PROVIDE SOME DECENT PILLOWS!

The so-called continental breakfast
Breakfasts, like most hotels offer, always start late!! I like a good cup at 5:30. Hotels are different experiences, and some people fall off their normal sleeping schedule and rise early.

The so-called breakfast!
Here's what I saw (didn't get). Machine coffee - yuck! A cardboard tray that was half-filled with 3-day old tiny muffins on the counter; and a jug of juice! When I came around asking for the breakfast, he threw this half-filled box on the counter. It's obvious that this was a left-over from days ago. They were a real turn-off.

If you can't do better than that, eliminate it!

The VON's (sister store is Safeway) that will tell you something right there, is right across the street and it is just as bad as the hotel breakfast. I walked to 7-11 for a real cup of coffee.

GOT what I paid for!!!
