Hostellit – Kalifornia

”Staff was really nice, parking is a bit of a rip off as there would be free street parking available so I think they should inform you about it. Towel was only available for payment. Restrooms were pretty dirty.”

”Terrible property. Listed as welcoming for children and then refused entry for my child. Still refusing a refund and having to dispute with the credit card company. Terrible neighborhood and awful response from property. Do not book.”

”First hostel I visited during my trip. I stayed in a shared bunk bed room. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Beds were comfortable as well. Big lockers, and coffee table and chair inside the room. Everything was clean. Bathrooms were also very clean. You can tell staff doesn’t a great work cleaning every day. Only issue with the building (and probably the area) is that it has a urine smell that seems to never go away. The rooms have A/C and were very fresh the whole time. I appreciate...

”I had issues (twice...) with the codes not working when trying to enter my room which made me feel unsafe especially when this happened midnight. Reception is not open after 10pm so I received help via Whatsapp and staff was helpful. Other things that lower my rating were the metal beds that made a lot of noise. Also the whole floor only had 2 showers working. I have never had to wait to shower in hostel before. I wish toilets had more hooks to put towels/clothes in and rooms had mirrors....

”Quiet place and walkable. Nice breakfast.”

”The rooms were very nice and very clean, but it is definitely more on the hotel side rather than a hostel. There isn’t much of a lobby to hang out in and quiet hours past 10pm are taken pretty seriously. The staff was so amazingly helpful and very kind, and I overall loved my experience there. Would highly recommend as a clean and comfortable place to stay, but less so as a social hub that so many other hostels are.”

”I love the location right at the beach, the staff was also very helpful.”

”Muy mal”

”Only stairs so if you stay be prepared to carry your suitcase up multiple flights of stairs. The neighborhood is very loud until late at night. My TV volume did not work, one of the lamps by the bed has no outlet to plug into so it’s just for decor, there was no trash can in my room, the vent looked moldy or dirty and no keurig or coffee maker in the shared kitchen so no way to make coffee even if you bought or brought your own. The place is clean and new and the bed was comfortable.”

”very clean and nice”
