The standard rooms are shoddy and the area is a little ghetto. Don't rely on the shuttle to downtown long beach.

We were coming in a day early for a cruise, stayed at Motel Current. My first impression was this place was an old hotel. After asking a few questions they told me they'd remodeled so it was a mixture of old and new. Sadly enough we got the old. Adequate, but basic. What we did like was they are very... More

I stayed 2 nights at Hotel Current on a business trip last week, based a recommendation from my boss. Ultimately, I was unhappy with the experience. I don't typically write reviews, but I felt this place could use my feedback. Upon check-in, the receptionist could not find my reservation (through book-it), but was very polite as she tried to find... More

Whenever I visit my daughter who lives in Long Beach I stay in a hotel. About five years ago I discovered Hotel Current. The Owners are friendly; the pool is warm; and the breakfast is convenient. My husband and I always stay in one of the Spa Rooms in the front. Even before they were remodeled, they were comfortable. But... More

While I was in Afghanistan last year, I purchased Hotel Current in Long Beach through Living Social Escape. I've been to California twice in my life and wanted to see the beach when I got home. My wife and I drove to Long Beach back in February from Arizona and had an awesome time. When I first got to the... More

Was in town for a two day tournament at Rec Park Golf Course across the street. Booked two rooms with a AAA rate. My room was awful. The door to the room had a hole in the bottom left and you could see the outside. Also, the bathroom door had been damaged by the doorknob. It bothered me that the... More

I have tried to contact you and hope you received both my call and email sent in response to your concerns this weekend. I was not aware of your breakfast feedback from earlier cooresponse, but would... More

Beautiful lobby and furniture but parking was a nightmare..too small. I agree with other reviewers..the breakfast can become chaotic and the sitting area seemed congested. They messed up our room request but did apologize. Staff was very pleasant. We stayed near the lobby but the back room/building area seemed dark and shady. Great location between LA and OC.

It was my boyfriend's birthday this past weekend so I planned a whole weekend for him. Wayne the front desk manager was so very helpful and kind! Everything we needed assistance with all we needed to do was call the front desk and they were on top of it. The shuttle was nice, even though we took it literally next... More

I reserved this hotel for a company trip. We reserved 2 rooms for 2 nights. Front desk staff was super helpful in setting us up with early and late check-in/out and complimentary shuttle transportation which we took advantage of several times during our stay. Our rooms were very modern & spotless!! I loved the iPod docking station & the rainshower... More

Hotell CURRENT, I really wanted to like you. Your lobby is beautiful and modern, my room had a wood floor (tile in the bathroom), stylish furniture, a flat-panel TV and a very comfortable bed. It was spotlessly clean. Your staff are very friendly and helpful as well. Evidently the furniture cost so much there was no money left over for... More
