Hi! This video is so helpful! Loved that they have the ironing board! Are the washing machine in the laundry room always occupied? Was thinking to wash my own clothes in the shower (of course, minimal splashing, not causing mess and mind my etiquette) and dry it in the drying machine.
I'm looking to visit LA for shopping but I'm afraid of staying at this hostel and being robbed, is it available to buy an extra? ps: I've never stayed in a hostel. I really really liked this hostel and thank you for sharing every detail. you got my sub!
What do you mean by "buy an extra"? Can you clarify? 😊 I wouldnt worry about being robbed in a hostel, I have left my laptop on my bed a few times and it was fine, however I would recomend to always lock your valubles in your locker, and you will use your own lock so if you are worried about that buy a heavy duty one 😊 I honestly feel more safe in hostels when traveling by myself because they have much more surveillance cameras put up (not in the rooms though). Completely undestand if you are worried but thats why I make these videos to show people that hostels are not that bad!
@@klaragadd8660 sorry i wasnt that clear saying "buyin an extra", it was about buying an extra locker. So i was thinking the same thing u said to put everything valubles in the locker so i guess it will be fine. Thank you so much, it helped me alot! 💜
Hello, Great video and super informative! How was the noise factor? Could you sleep during the day? Are people generally considerate of keeping the noise down?
First you don't have to be a member but without membership you pay a little more. second I don't know why they removed bread from breakfast. Breakfast without bread? kind of odd😳 Maybe USA HIs did that cause I got the same in Seattle too.
I stayed at this Santa Monica location in October 2023. They had a plain bagel, cereals, oatmeals, bananas, cream cheese, jelly, milk, orange juice, coffee, hot chocolate, and teas. There may be more I just don't remember all but pretty good for the price.
Hey! I was wondering if you preferred the stay open hostel to this. I’m planning a solo trip but I’m a little confused because I’ve heard of some safety concerns around Venice beach
(it's a small space with many people) It can in hostels, but the HI hostel in Santa Monica has a SERIOUS AC it was definitely cooler almost cold compared to other hostels
Thank you for the detailed video. I'm thinking of bookign this place instead of an airbnb!
This is like a 5 star resort compared to some hostels I have seen 😂
Haha right!

USA? you have to be cautious everywhere you go
Thanks! Do they have family room and secured guarded parking?
Kindof a random question but do the rooms get stuffy or too hot with so many people in them? Thanks :)
Why would a room get hot because 6 people are there? 😂😂😂
It can in hostels, but the HI hostel in Santa Monica has a SERIOUS AC it was definitely cooler almost cold compared to other hostels

Hi how can u charge ur phone ? do u have specific place near ur bed so it can charge during the night ? thanks for the video :)
yes, there is a light and an outlet for each bed
Good miss plz tell bunk bed per night for members Rent Thanks.
If you looking at the rate at a hostel it always the cost PER BED, otherwise it will say private room
