Budget friendly stay
Nicole was very helpful and nice she made the stay pretty good. ITH is good for travelers on a budget. The place is fairly decent. Would be awesome if the kitchen and dining are are cleaner and doesn't smell bad. I survived so far with the days I was there, I booked the place to mostly sleep and eat breakfast..the view was awesome though being near the beach makes up for it

Stayed for a few day’s. Would definitely recommend. Speaking from experience, overall staffing was great and very welcoming. Good nightlife location, approximately five minute walk to the Beach, clubs, and great food spot options to choose from. Transportation is very convenient.

They forget to tell you in their description that there’s no parking around and you have to pay every 3 hours in private parking a because the limit of parking time is 3 hours all around the area, plus don’t even want to talk about the shape of the whole building is more like a shelter but they charge you to stay.

Sand and sea
I found it quite hard to find the hostel, but once I did I was pleasantly surprised and the room was small and there was no TV in the room, the toilet and shower room was outside in the hallway. Also the kitchen was fully equipped and there was a good sized dining room.
The hostel was right by Hermosa Beach Pier and there were plenty of bars and restaurants around the area.
I would highly recommend it if you want to save money !

What a great find. Awesome staff, friendly guests, great breakfast- yes, it is on the pier in hermosa and there is a lively nightlife. They give you earplugs, if you want them.
I loved this
