This is a dingy but close to the venue I was going to. It was a bit noisy from street traffic. My room was bit grungy and the hair dryer didn’t work. They also took a $100 deposit and only returned $68 without explanation. It’s within walking distance of a few restaurants but not worth spending another night there. I would not stay here again.

Overall, this property was a great stay for the price and location. It is outdated, but clean and provided basic necessities. My main complaint would be that the fire alarm went off around 430AM one night during our stay and was not turned off for about 45 minutes. It was a false alarm thankfully, but it was so loud in our room that we had to wait the entire time in the lobby. I was extremely surprised that nobody reached out to us to reimburse us for the night (we were there 6 days).
The property is run down. The heater didn’t work. There is a cold draft that comes through the front door because there is a huge gap and I was immediately itching which leads me to believe there were bed bugs. The towels felt damp like they had never fully dried. When I called the front desk I was told it was just the humidity. They didn’t offer to bring new towel. I wanted to leave but couldn’t afford to book another hotel. Also this one was way overpriced and misleading on their ad in Expedia. There is no hot tub and no dining facilities. I was also afraid to park my car in the back.

Warren, I'm so sorry to hear you weren't satisfied with your stay. We're working every day to make improvements and I will add these two items to my list to discuss in our next staff meeting.
The Golden Sails Hotel is my go to accmodation in Long Beach. While not the fanciest or newest property, it is clean, well maintained, resonably priced, and the staff is very accommodating.
The front of the property was intimidating. I almost turned around and went somewhere else but I went inside and the front desk area was very nice. Clean and then the pool area was very nice. Very clean. The rooms were very nice. It's just the front of the property when you're driving by. If I didn't know what the inside look like, I would have kept driving

One and done
The hotel is incredibly dated and could use some updating. Carpet was in terrible shape and is in need of immediate replacement. The TV is perhaps the smallest I’ve seen in any hotel had a sound that could best be described as tinny.
It’s a “value hotel” and we paid much more than the quality would dictate. Should not be more than $100 per night.
The one positive is that the staff is very friendly.
