We needed to arrange an overnight stay having arrived in LA from the East Coast in the evening.

The challenge when looking for accommodation in the Long Beach area is that they are priced dramatically at either end of the tariff scale and therefore, difficult to find somewhere that embued confidence.

We therefore, chose Quality Inn Long Beach, more for the Quality Inn reputation and took the chance.

This is not a Quality Inn!! At best it fits the low end scale of a Super 8 or Motel 6. The rooms are tired and in need of attention. Our room had the wall paper peeling from around the mirror an old sink area that needed repair and remodelling and a noisy A/C. However, the pervading thing that lingers is the smell. The whole room smells unclean - like they have had hobo's over for a sleep-in!!! The bedding (whilst clean smelt) the carpet looked like it hadn't seen a steam cleaner in its life and the room generally was dirty. I know we paid under $100 but were begging to pay more had we found an alternative.......

The same could be said of the breakfast, two cereal options, a few doughnuts, no napkins, waffle mix out etc etc etc We had to keep asking for things which was a little embarassing. The lady at reception was sweet and doing her best to ensure that things were filled but it speaks to the overall theme here - anything goes!!! Oh! and what's with the cleaning staff getting into the breakfast things whilst the guests are still having/trying to have breakfast? Guess that's why there wasn't much there!!

I wouldn't stay here again - that should say it all!!

It is no where near a Quality Inn and failed to live up to all the rhetoric published on all the little Quality Inn signs displayed around the room.

I needed to fly out of LGB early one morning so I wanted a hotel near the airport. This was a quick 5 minute drive. The hotel was clean, had free parking, wifi, and a breakfast. The hotel staff was great and very friendly. The breakfast was basic but worked for what I needed. The bed was comfortable and the room was quiet.

I chose this hotel because we were going on a cruise and it was close to the port. After looking into it closer I discovered they had a shuttle to & from the port & you can park there for the week for the same price as parking at the port & get a room. Our room was very large and had all that is expected in hotel rooms these days. There were a few ants in the bathtub but nowhere else in the room. The staff was very friendly. The shuttle to & from the port was very quick and SO much easier than trying to find it on our own. I found this hotel to be a great place for one night & we were prepared to stay longer but after the cruise we just wanted to get home. I recommend this hotel strongly to people that are going on a cruise.

We almost cancelled our reservations at the Quality Inn because of some negative reviews. I am glad we decided to give it a try! It is not 4 or 5 star accommodations but a clean and safe place. Our family reunion was held in Long Beach and we were looking for an affordable, clean, convenient place in Long Beach before heading to Las Vegas (spending good money on 4/5 star there). The staff and other guests were friendly. The pool was clean as was the entire grounds. It is not the "scary place" one reviewer stated. Even the breakfast, though standard fare, was appreciated by everyone.
