This is a very nice condo in a great location with lots of light through the big windows (including gorgeous sunrises and sunsets), wonderful views of the bay with the Queen Mary in sight, a comfortable bed, and a fully functional and good sized kitchen and bathroom.
Great studio close to the convention center. I was worried about not having a/c, but I just opened the windows and the multiple fans were plenty to keep the studio cool. Room looks exactly as pictured. Great view of the queen mary from the roof.
I had a great time staying at this Ocean getaway. The apartment was just as pictured- modern/ updated and clean with a great view! Linda was an amazing host, very welcoming, helpful and quick to respond.
We had a wedding to attend near by. Used the time check some of the sights. We thought it was a one bedroom but it was a studio. Very cute and comfortable.
This studio has been thoughtfully appointed and renovated with style - whilst still embracing the retro vibe. Our host communicated throughout the booking process and again in the days leading up to our stay. She was prompt and helpful, and even accommodated an extended checkout. We would certainly recommend both her as a host & also her well-located pied-a-terre.
Checkin was fairly easy. And great to have parking included. Very nice to have a kitchen along with coffee maker, coffee, creamer & tea. The only seating is two metal bar stools and two chairs. WiFi is not strong. Luckily we have unlimited data so we used that, but couldn't stream to TV. The building is old but the unit is updated. We were there when it was cold and rainy. The windows don't seal well. We Could hear sirens on emergency vehicles throughout the night. When it stormed the windows rattled and it sounded like they would blow out. There's also a window in the shower that doesn't seal well so constant draft. It was cold in the unit. The bedding was worn.
Absolutely loved living in an 100+ historical condominium. The condo was beautifully updated while maintaining the 1920's charm. Walking distance to key attractions shoreline village, Pikes. and many more. Spectacular views of the ocean, downtown LBC with Queen Mary in the background. Our host provided all the amenities needs to enjoy a real home like experience. I highly recommended and hope to visit again sooner than laterđ
Everything was as advertized, only thing to keep in mind is that the rental is on the 9th floor facing east and has no A/C. So for the hours the sun shines directly into it, you might as well be outside.
Pros
- Prime location for many attractions
- Remodeled place with good utilities
- Kitchen is good
Cons
- No AC
- Noisy environment at night - heard lots of noises on road that is audible, as the glass doors are thin
- Lift is bit old, i saw the maintenance date was outdated
