    Google search lead us to booking this hotel for one night while traveling through Long Beach. Booked the same day (Saturday) through Expedia for a total of $219.72 (price includes all fees and taxes. We were genuinely surprised at the level of cleanliness, upgraded design and lovely hospitality of this hotel. We would have never picked this hotel based on the exterior - it looks rather dated - yet wow with the inside! The photos posted on Expedia are SPOT on. For a Saturday night, this part of Long Beach was very safe and quiet. We're definitely staying here next time! Let me know if you find this review helpful?

    I'm back!!! Pleased to say the hotel has had some updates, but unfortunately they still don't offer the breakfast. The rooms are clean but the beds are only full sized beds. They do have the shuttle for the cruise port once again so I'm pleased to report that!

    Huge worm we found

    Worst Hotel EVER! My dad booked for this hotel and first thing when we got there My mom went to the lobby and staff was extremely rude. When we got to our room the floor was extremely dirty. And im not exaggerating. I mean dirty like dust, pet food, vomit, and hair! We went to the store and when we came back there was a HUGE worm. Most likely not coming back. Also not to forget the additional fees.

    I am utterly surprised that this hotel received such great ratings. While parking ($15/self park) was fine, the spots were narrow and there were many times lack of parking if you stayed out too late. However, my biggest issue were the cockroaches. Yes you heard me. In two different rooms, I have videos, photos, it was one of the most horrifying experiences I had ever had. Imagine going to the toilet, opening up the toilet and finding a 4 inch cockroach in it. That's INSANE. That's literally what happened. I tried flushing the toilet MULTIPLE times without avail. The management (not the actual managers, just the staff), tried to help by moving us into different rooms but the different rooms ALSO had the same issue. How can this hotel be operating still? What are their cleaning procedures? Forget covid, these roaches are very much alive!

    What's NOT current at Hotel Current We stayed here for the first time since it's near our kid's dorm and it received good reviews from other parents who've stayed for college events. I've seen it many times on our way to and from the campus and was hesitant but my wife makes all the arrangements and so I just keep my mouth shut. I was actually okay with Current but not at the current price we paid. Having a complementary breakfast and parking would've sealed the deal but instead a trip to Wallymart for bagels and McD's were necessary. "I" think the hotel was trying to make themselves seem more opulent than what it really is by making the bed high off the floor and the sink that sat at my belly button and almost shoulder height with my personal concierge wife. The mattress was actually comfy but the pillows were totally uncomfortable. Pillows were not full sized pillows but half a regular sized pillow so it was hard for me to sleep comfortably. I recommend bringing your own. They also placed these disgusting ugly stained pillow throws on the beds that were totally unnecessary! The AC unit was well past its useful hotel life and a newer unit that's quiet with an accurate thermostat would be nice. The little AC unit struggled to cool the room and it would just stop. I had to turn the power off and on just to get it working throughout our stay. The noise would drown out the tv and irritating trying to sleep. One good selling point is the bathroom and shower. Our room had two slider doors; one to separate the bathroom from the bed area and another that separated the sink from the commode / shower. The shower was very spacious with a rainwater shower head that worked well with sufficient water to wash off soap which were provided with dispensers of body wash and shampoo but no conditioner which wasn't a big deal for me but to some it may. My concierge didn't complain so it didn't bother her either. In my opinion, the room should've been priced less than the hotels closer to the airport which provides breakfast. My only real gripes were the parking fees and air conditioner but let's list what wasn't current at Hotel Current: 1) Air conditioner. Just replace them 2) Pillows and throw pillows. Just delete the pillow throws and provide full size ones that are comfy 3) Floors seemed to be clean but stained and dingy 4) Cabinets were also dingy and looked like an Earl Sheib paint job (who's earl sheib?) 5) Shower tile grout were either dingy or had areas with different colored grout. I didn't want to look too closely because if it didn't see it, it didn't exist 6) Lamps looked like they came from grandma's house and I'm in my 60s! 7) Door seals on our room needed to be replaced or installed because i could see daylight around the door 8) Bed frames. It was a slight struggle getting onto the bed. My short concierge wife had relive her childhood days by making a running somersault leap onto the mattress for which I gave her a score of 9.5. With all those outdated discrepancies, the best part of our stay were the staff. They were all delightful and I was greeted with a nice "Hola" our first morning .

I put a lot of trust in their word since they've previously stayed at this specific hotel a few times and they choice was perfect. Driving from the bay to Southern California was a whole trip in itself with two kids and the last thing we wanted to do was to rush the moment we got in the car and into the hotel. That being said, we decided to stay two nights prior to embarkation day. We wanted to walk in, get settled after the 7 (=/-) hour drive and relax. The hotel had everything we needed - a full kitchen, a clean and perfectly running shower, clean and comfortable beds and a wonderful view. The proximity of the hotel to the port was perfect. All eight of us were able to get our belongings together and not stress on getting parking. The continental breakfast was great as well. The staff was beyond amazing and during one of our nights we were able to watch the UFC fight downstairs in the lobby with a crew of construction workers. One of the staff attendants gave my girls crayons and coloring paper. She sat down and helped them with their art and it was honestly precious.

But…read moreI had a few great customer service interactions that won me over, even in a not so accommodating situation. Upon a busy check in right about 5:00 PM on a Saturday in the summer time, we were notified that the AC in the hotel is out. (Side note it had been out since Tuesday and no one notified us until now) We were traveling with our bulldog so this was a huge deal and I immediately asked to be placed at another Hilton property. Art at the front desk was very kind and accommodating. He offered a room with a window that opens as well as a patio, so there would be a constant airflow. He also said if we weren't happy we could come back down for a full refund. Art in general was beyond gracious. We chose to stay, as the sun was going down, and when you're close to water it gets pretty cool even in the hottest months. We had some drinks at the bar and tried to make the best of it. The bartender was also kind and working hard in the heat! All was well considering the circumstances. Until midnight when all of the building alarms started going off every few minutes. We were only staying one night for a relaxing day away with our dog on the beach, and because of this property we definitely did not receive that. I've had to open a case for a refund, which seems crazy to me. As an honors member I definitely thought it would be offered without hesitation, and possibly even more compensation. Unfortunately this was not the situation. For a property with a great location, it needs a deep cleaning and a few updates immediately. With that, I'd consider returning.

I wish the hotel had a more comprehensive restaurant or something as it is far from anything good (unless you want chains like PF Changs or Island's). ' The only other note I had was that I wasn't pleased with their parking situation. Its an underground lot but most of the spots in it are reserved for not the hotel and the spots are tiny. Two cars can't drive down the aisles at once because they're tight and it makes for a stressful parking experience, especially at $30 a night.

The balcony provided a nice space for reading and watching the city life below. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I initially booked a room with 2 queens and they fixed it no problem. The rooftop has a cool view of the city, especially at night. The hotel has ample parking - spaces under the building and directly next to it. One thing to keep in mind - if you are staying in downtown Long Beach, it's a big city with big city sights and sounds. You aren't staying in the country. Great experience for my wife and I.

The neighborhood is a typical downtown area and can be seedy but the hotel itself is secure with the main entrance by key card only at night and the elevators also require your key card to be operational. My room, a single king, was clean and in good shape. There is a large TV, desk area, adequate closet, and mini-fridge with Keurig machine in the room. The iron is of high quality and perfect for pressing my clothes for my meetings. The bathroom is very nice with a Toto Washlet that are common in Japan. The room's thermostat, however, is in Centigrade so do brush up on your metric system! My only real criticism was that the room safe did not open all the way as the closet door blocked its full opening. The top floor has a nice sitting area to relax and there is a quaint workout room and pool area. There is also a sauna which I did not use. Upon checking out, I had a nice conversation with Yogi, the owner, who told me a little about the place and how it was named. Overall, my stay at the Hotel Mai was a wonderful one and I would certainly go back the next time I need to stay in Long Beach!

The restaurants, bars and shops offer unique experiences that are quintessential to the Queen Mary and improvements continue to be made. Is everything perfect? No but that is the beauty of the unique Queen Mary Hotel. Time should be taken to take in all the available displays, self guided tour, films about her history as well as a meal at The Chelsea, or Promenade Cafe, cocktails at the Observation Bar. The daily breakfast buffet has all the breakfast offerings and an amazing view of downtown Long Beach across the water. A La Carte breakfast is also available. Now that the F&M Bank Amphitheatre in Long Beach is open, this is the perfect place to stay and then walk to the Amphitheatre for your concert. The location is "across the street" - but it feel so close that it seems like it's in the parking lot of the Queen Mary. Because the Queen Mary is a historic ship, the walls are thin, the hotel doesn't have all the traditional bells and whistles that are common in newer hotels but for me, that is part of the experience. There isn't central air or heat but you can request a fan or more blankets, if the room is too loud they do offer ear plugs. What the hotel does have is beautiful historic woodwork, Art Deco style in the staterooms, 1930s artwork, photos of the celebrities who have stayed on the Queen Mary, working portholes. It's a time capsule that you can enter. Explore their website, review the tours that are available and remember that you can do self guided exploration as well. Wander the deck and it feels like you're traveling back in history.
