I chose “Renaissance Long Beach Hotel,” because of my husband's work. I live on Huntington Beach, and it is a place where I can go to Long Beach in about 20 minutes. Because it is in a relatively safe area of Long Beach in downtown, the access location is very popular and hotel is always sold out, so it was the best time to make a reservation.

Hotel surroundings

I saw the same people on the street near the hotel, and started to say hello after a while. However, they looked a little like homeless people. Still, is a normal and safe town.

The back alley of the hotel was a hub, and it was convenient to ride buses and trains. You can get to downtown Los Angeles easily.

Access

The hotel is close to Long Beach Airport, so many pilots were staying. It is about 30 minutes from Los Angeles International Airport. The town is not dangerous, but it is best not to go to far away from the hotel at night. There were many cool bars and restaurants around the hotel. There are many restaurants that you can do take out. It was convenient because many buses were running.

Summary

It had a very nice stay. Because it was a room on the beach side and on the upper floor, the view was splendid. Also, I went to the gym every day, and it was a surprisingly fulfilling gym. It was also fun to talk to a sweaty pilot at the gym. I am a Marriott’s Titanium, so the club lounge was accessible. It was nice to have appetizers in the evening and dessert late at night. I could walk to the beach, walk to outlet malls, and the restaurant were not troublesome to get to. The atmosphere of the city was very good. It felt very nice to stay at a luxurious hotel.
