We have stayed at the LB Residence Inn several times visiting our son who attends Cal State Univ. Long Beach. It is easy to get to the college from the hotel and has easy freeway access, etc. The Res. Inn has comp. Mon-Thurs. beer and munchies - enough to make a meal! The rooms are always clean and very comfortable with internet access. We are sometimes able to get an Entertainment book rate, or a AAA rate which isn't as good a discount, but helps.
