Long Beach and Queen Mary
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 12/06/07
Went to the Queen Mary and it is awful, run down, rude staff and management, place is dirty. Stayed on ship in hotel, disgusting, filthy rooms and over priced and can hear the next room as if they are in bed with you. No staff to clean the room, carpet stained and sticky, not unique but actually very sad, makes Motel 6 look great! Food is dismay, ...

Don't recommend

Long Beach is not very safe. It DOES have a gang problem as does much of the Los Angeles area. There is graffiti everywhere..on sidewalks, on public property, on personal property, and on highway signs. The people are of low quality especially near downtown. There is a big homeless problem. I would not live there and I don't think it is worth visiting on vacation...if you want the beach, go to Santa Barbara instead.

I would love to do that
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 10/04/05
I like this place, and I woud'nt hate to go back. It is convenience. It is a great place to visit and have family trips. You would hate to miss a chance of a life time. That is why I'm taking this offer.

I love downtown Long Beach!
By sarah s, 05/08/05
I grew up in Long Beach, being originally from the East Coast. I was born in Philly and left when I was two weeks old, so I know nothing about it. I really like Long Beach alot especially downtown. There's plenty to see and do in beautiful downtown Long Beach. Downtown Long Beach is way better than downtown Los Angeles, which is where I currently live. If you get the chance to go to Downtown Long Beach, go! You'll be so glad you did!

Many different neighborhoods all of varying degrees of affluenece and charm. A large waterfront that can be enjoyed in numerous ways. Beautiful parks, nice shopping districts, and a beautiful cosmopolitan downtown choc-a-block full of eateries, nightclubs, arts venues, and museums. Lots of trees and greenery throughout, and georgeous skies full of ...

long beach, boring beach
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 03/23/05
long beach, is just a town you have to go through to get to other great towns, seal beach huntingotn beach, redondo beach, malibu, etc. no one travels to southern california, to stay in long beach. sure go check out the queen mary, other than the 2 hours you spend doing that, go somewhere else.
