Pat is the best host one could ask for at a bed and breakfast. The location was convenient for an event were attending, the food was delicious and the room and bed were comfortable. We enjoyed our stayed so much that we have booked a year in advance for next year's event.

Pat is a very nice lady. There is no air condition which was a surprise, but we were there in October so was okay with the windows open. The street was busy with traffic so bring ear plugs. The food was good.

Charming, Warm Hospitality and Fantastic Location
From the moment I arrived, I was charmed by the inn's warm and inviting atmosphere, thanks in large part to the gracious hosts, Jan and Courtney. The daily expanded continental breakfast was a delightful start to my mornings, the broccoli quiche was my favorite! The complimentary coffee available all day was a great touch for caffeine lovers like myself. The location in scenic Belmont Heights was a beautiful neighborhood to explore! Additionally it offered easy access to both Orange and LA Counties, Being just 3 blocks from the ocean was a definite plus as I did take advantage with some beach time! The attention to detail and cleanliness in the guest rooms was evident. I was in the "Sunset Beach" room which was on the second floor. Having a television with cable and DVD in every room was a nice touch, although I didn’t have the need for them on this trip. The bed was very comfortable as were the pillows. I will note for readers that this room does face Broadway, which is a busy street even at night. The road noise could be too much for some. The room did come with earplugs which I used to have a very peaceful nights sleep. The free WiFi was much appreciated, allowing me to stay connected and attend to online business as needed. Overall, Beachrunners' Inn, with Jan and Courtney as its gracious hosts, provided quality lodgings with a genuine sense of comfort and hospitality. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a charming and relaxing place to stay in Long Beach

A dream of a B&B !
Lovely, serene, spotless, quiet, relaxed and welcoming — a beautiful home and a remarkable traveler’s haven. My room was absolutely serene, and so comfortable and thoughtful in every detail. The owner is a true professional, and kindness itself. I felt in very good hands. The entire experience couldn’t have been better… stop browsing and book your stay at Beachrunners ! . book a room!

Beachrunners Inn is a beautiful craftsman home with great facilities. Pat is a great host who we have stayed with before. The beach is only 2 blocks away and it is about a 20 minute walk to the Metro station.

Beachrunners Inn is a Delight
Pat‘s home is so warm and inviting. The rooms are clean, well-cared-for, and have everything a person needs in a home away from home. The breakfasts and shared downstairs spaces are wonderful. The inn is walkable to several great bars, restaurants, and coffee shops. Oh, and Pat goes above and beyond to ensure that her guests are comfortable and have everything they need. If you’re looking for a plain Long Beach (or just in the LA area for work like I was), you should stay here.

Stately old home in a historic neighborhood an easy walk from the beach and multiple restaurants. Pat and her daughter are warm, welcoming and full of helpful suggestions about local restaurants and things to do. There are board games, books and movie DVDs to enjoy during your stay, and the breakfast provided was absolutely delicious! (freshly-made frittata, fruit salad, yogurt, toast, cereal, OJ, and coffee on the day we were there)

Excellent stay
This is a true B&B. Host Pat was a wonderful delight who really cares about her guests and makes sure they are comfortable. She made us feel right at home. Breakfasts were delicious. She takes pride in her Inn and it shows. Very convenient location to shoreline and downtown. We highly recommend this place in Long Beach. Can't wait to stay there again.

Great place to stay in Long Beach
I felt bad arriving later than planned, but Pat was gracious. Breakfast was good, definitely many steps up from the airport hotel breakfasts. Location is good, but unfortunately I was working and wasn't able to explore much. Room was not too large, but clean and well kept. Pat is a class act all the way around.

Pat was very welcoming. As our first stay at the States the first impression of hospitality was very important for us. She made us feel welcomed and well looked after and safe. The location is very quiet and very close to the beach. Would come back and highly recommend.

Nice stay for a couple visiting town for a few day
Our stay was fantastic, the room was very comfortable and the property was very nice with plenty of sitting areas. It is less than 5 minutes to the beach and the art museum. The neighborhood is really nice and felt totally safe. We will be returning next time we are out in LA. Also breakfast was amazing!

The home was nice, the owner was wonderful, the breakfast was great. The room was crowded and small. The temperature could not be easily controlled. No heat when door is closed. Fan in the window lets cold in all night. The noise in this room was too much. Heard everyone going by on the street. One of the other rooms would probably be nicer.

The room was very small. The shower head sprayed out the door and could not adjust down while waiting to warm up. You had to get in and hide in the corner so you can close the door. Once warm it was OK but drain was loose. Just pretty comic. Owner mentioned she would be around if we needed TP. Funny she mentioned it as we were out (there was little on the roll). Whole thing was odd. Quiet night's sleep though. Felt very safe. Owner was super nice. Maybe other rooms are better?

No questions, just book a night. The 1913 house offers a historical feel with an upgraded appeal. Oh that's good, I should have been in marketing. Anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

Who would have thought of a cozy B&B in Long Beach??? The hospitality can't be beat, and the wholesome feeling of being at home, cradled and loved. Please, please, please consider this place for your next stay in Southern Cal!!!
