While there’s no restaurant on-site, the in-room kitchens and free grocery delivery service make it easy to prep your own late-night snacks. Plus, there are plenty of walkable dining spots and takeout options nearby.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself doesn’t host live music, you’re just a short ride from Long Beach’s thriving nightlife—think rooftop bars, local breweries, and late-night lounges. When you’re ready to wind down, the hotel’s quiet, residential vibe is a welcome break from the noise.

What People Say

Guests rave about the spacious, apartment-style rooms and the friendly, helpful staff. Many mention the convenience of having a full kitchen and the comfort of the beds. The free breakfast is often highlighted as a major plus, especially for those recovering from a night out.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the decor feels a bit dated in places, and the location isn’t walkable to downtown venues—so you’ll need a car or rideshare. But for many, the peace and space more than make up for it.

The Bottom Line

A smart, spacious choice for music lovers who want the comforts of home with easy access to Long Beach’s concert scene.
