About this property
Comfy, homey studio with private entrance and snack-prep area
Make this comfy studio your private retreat, or your home base for discovering Long Beach and Lakewood. This spacious room features one queen bed, a sofa and coffee table, a cheery kitchen table for eating, working, or playing, a convenient snack-prep area (with microwave, minifridge, coffeemaker, coffee grinder, tea kettle, toaster, dishes, and sink, but no stove), and a bathroom with a spacious, walk-in shower. With amenities like AC, heating, WiFi, and washer and dryer, guests can work, play or relax. Surround yourself with natural fibers, wood, tile and stone - we do our best to minimize the use of plastic. This is our one and only Vrbo, we are not corporate. Solo travelers and couples come for a visit in the Long Beach/Lakewood area and keep coming back. We're a 10-15 minute neighborhood stroll from an authentic Italian restaurant, and a Chinese seafood restaurant, pizza, pho, cupcakes, nail salon, liquor, and more. A great place to call your home away from home, we're sure you'll enjoy your stay.
We are a quick hop from Long Beach City College, Long Beach Airport, the Boeing Company, Mercedes-Benz Vehicle Preparation Center, the Rinks-Lakewood Ice, El Dorado East Regional Park, and great food at Vino e Cucina, LV Seafood (Chinese), and the Village Cafe. We are 5.1 miles from California State University Long Beach, 13.3 miles from the Port of Long Beach, and 16.5 miles from Disneyland.

About the host
Hosted by Patricia L Chen

We've lived in Long Beach for over 40 years. Kenny divides his time between the dogs and his orchard. Patricia works full-time. We take long walks in the neighborhood or at the beach to try to walk off the food we love so much. We enjoy hosting and getting to meet so many different interesting people, but we follow your lead and respect your privacy if you are not inclined to chat.
Why they chose this property
We bought the house in 2000. We like it because the lot is good-sized. The street has no sidewalks, so it looks greener than many other places. It's a quiet, safe neighborhood, and every house was designed and built individually; no two are alike.
What makes this property unique
Our unit is a studio with its own private door. The walls and ceiling in the main area are covered with pine boards, so it has a rustic feel. The floor in the main area and laundry area are tile, and the floor in the bathroom is stone. There is no carpet anywhere. The snack preparation area has a microwave oven, dorm-sized mini-fridge, toaster, coffee maker and grinder, and tea kettle. There is a sink, but no stove. The laundry is directly off the room, very convenient. The room is at the back of our house, locked off, on the other side of the laundry room, with its own entrance. It's really spacious, with a sofa and coffee table tucked into one corner, and a cute, round kitchen table by the window. It's really a great place to hang out.
