Great location and very good/clean services. Stayed in a single room which while a little small and not overly cheap, had everything needed. Staff were very helpful and the pub crawl they arranged was good fun.

- Sure the location is great, but they are letting in some weird people stay in the hostel. Over our stay we saw: 1) a bunch of people that stole our food (thank you staff for being supportive, we know its not your fault!), 2) some customers that havent showered for quite a while (i get it you are a charity, but a basic sense check would be a good idea when admitting customers...i couldnt sleep from the stench one night), 3) some other customers that we never saw in hostels around the world - tip of the hat to the guy with the ankle monitor.... - Then there are all the homeless and crazy people outside the hostel - many of them especially in the night

There are so many activities here that I like the most. Such a cozy place to relax and to work while sitting. The bed is normal, and it would be better if there were a curtain. Some lockers are broken. Staff is so friendly

The Hostel is well located, only fice minutes away from Santa Monica Pier. The kitchen for the guests is very well equiped and the staff is nice. The only negative thing to remark is that the private bedroom is small.

This hostel accommodation experience is great! The staff are friendly and the 24-hour service is reassuring. The breakfast was delicious and provided a great start to the day. The location is also very convenient, close to attractions and transportation systems. Roommates respect each other, the environment is clean and tidy, and the bathroom space is very spacious. Overall, it was a satisfying and pleasant stay and I would like to visit again!

Good location near Sa Monica beach. Nice activities like beach volleyball, movie night etc. Quite OK breakfast and free access to coffee all day. You can borrow beach towels, sunscreen and balls. A cozy fire burns in the common room. Easy to talk to staff and other travelers. Affordable and safe.

The room is spacious and the sanitary conditions are good. Although the breakfast is average, what else can you expect at this price? However, the bed is relatively low and I often bump my head against it, so I have to be careful. Another thing is that luggage storage is free for early arrivals, but you have to pay to store it after you check out.

I always book this hostel when I go to Los Angeles. Before the epidemic, I didn't need a deposit. This time I stayed for seven nights and the deposit was $150, which of course was returned when I checked out. Luggage storage costs $5, which is unreasonable.
