Carpenter Performing Arts Center Hotels – Long Beach, California

"One of our rooms was remodeled and looked nice. The other room had poor water pressure in the shower, a broken outlet at the sink, and the bathroom fan didn't work.

When I returned for a key that worked, she was rude and said maybe it wasn't the right place for me. The other clerk was apologetic. 2nd room also smelled like smoke. I'll never stay at this hotel again.2015-01-31"

"I was disappointed with the 2-room suite. There was one room with 2 queen beds; the sofa bed was in a much smaller room with no AC or heat venting into it. Once the sofa bed was pulled out, there was nowhere to put luggage. On a positive note, the room was clean and newly updated, and the hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast, too. The driveway and parking were horrible with our oversized van, but OK for a car. I won't stay again.2015-06-14"

The AC worked well, and there was plenty of hot water for showers. Check-in was easy, and the motel clerk was efficient, friendly, and provided a list of local restaurants. Adequate breakfast with excellent coffee. Walk to Loaded Cafe for excellent burgers; you'll have to drive if you want to dine at more upscale restaurants.2018-06-12"

"The hotel was noisy at night. I wasn't pleased with my room location in the back of the building overlooking a large office complex. Small room with a dirty carpet. The mattress was too soft, and the chair was worn and uncomfortable. All the employees were extremely friendly and accommodating. Interesting menu in the on-site restaurant. I got take-out two nights; the food was good, but the packaging didn't keep the food in place. No luggage cart available at checkout time. I didn't think I got my money's worth at this hotel.2015-08-23"
