The hostel was absolutely amazing--100% clean and very nice and "newish". They provided a wonderful breakfast each morning, and I was able to go to the open mike and comedy nights which was fun. Everyone was respectful and lovely. I can't say enough about the location and my overall experience, I will be back:)

I’ve stayed here several times with no issues However the other guests in my room were not very considerate, they left wet towels on my blankets were tossed, flip flops were left right in front of my bed. Although I liked this room better than the 8 person room, I didn’t appreciate my roommates.

6/10

The Hostel booked my trip 1 week ago with no problem. Then on second trip says they can’t take Los Angeles residents and needed to cancel and refund. Rep was so nonchalant about their error as if travelers can just simply go to a new Hostel. Why did they let the reservation happen a week ago? Why did they let the second booking happen days ago? The room was clean but rowdy drunk people and very rude, talking loud and noisy thru night.
