Closer to beach. We walked to beach and stalls. No parking so you need to plan and park a bit away from the hostel for free. Should you want to park next to hostel it will be costly. Nice stay. Can def recommend. Breakfast every morning.

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!

Room was better than expected and breakfast was okay, limited protein options for breakfast. I would have preferred to know in advance about parking because I had to move my car for overnight parking. Other than that, I felt safe and enjoyed the room.
