First time staying in a hostel and it was a great experience. It was the perfect accommodation for what I needed on this trip; a safe and secure place to rest my bed at night. Everyone was very nice and respectful of one another, and I had access to all the resources I needed (bathroom, kitchen appliances, fridge, etc.). If you’re looking for a low-budget, simplistic stay in Venice Beach, this is your place. Would stay here again!
