First time in Long Beach, and we enjoyed our stay at the Laughing Seagull. The only reason I'm not rating the place 5 stars is due to the fact that we chose the house based on the wonderful spa bathtub to enjoy only to find out that the water heater is not big enough to accommodate filling up the tub. Also, we could not find the remote control for the fireplace, so that was a bit disappointing. Other than that, it is a nice location, quiet, clean, and just a short walk to the beach.
