This hostel was really clean and pleasant. The shared bathrooms were spotless, and the shared kitchen was very well equipped. I actually regret staying here for only one night during my trip to LA🥲🥲 If I ever travel to LA alone again, I would definitely stay at this hostel again😀 The staff were very friendly. On the first floor, there is a shared kitchen and a laundry room ( with both washers and dryers), as well as a space where you can play pool and board games.

Awesome stay, located in a very convenient and accessible area. There’s so much to do and see in the area. The hostel itself was very clean and the facilities were well taken care of. I was also glad that I was able to use some facilities even after checkout (but before 10pm) since I had a very late night flight. Overall, if im ever in the area or have a long layover I’ll definitely stay here again. Courtyard was a nice area. Staff was so friendly too. Thank you!!!

Super happy with my stay at Hi Hostel in Santa Monica. The area is great and the amenities of the hostels are very convenient (fully equipped kitchen, laundry etc). The « Library » which is a quiet working space was definitely a plus.

It was a really clean and satisfying stay! Since check-in started at 3 p.m., I left my luggage at the accommodation and went for a walk along the beach. I wish I could’ve stayed longer, but if I come back again, I’d definitely love to stay here once more.

This hostel was pretty average overall, but it's clearly very old. The beds don't have privacy curtains, and the top bunk doesn't have a cover to block out the light, so if someone turns on the light, it'll wake you right up. The lockers are just flimsy metal cabinets, a far cry from what you'd find in New York. There are no charging outlets inside and no self-lighting LEDs, so if the lights are off, you'll need a flashlight. All in all, it's decent enough.
