Bruno and team super friendly and helpful. Highly recommend Hermosa Surf Hostel. Great location on the pier so many restaurants, live music etc steps away. We can’t wait to visit again!
It was amazing the guys from the office were so nice and helpful and fun it made every minute of the day a joy, the location in amazing there is fun litterally on the street and the beach just a minute walk away, could not ask for better.
This place was incredible. It’s our first time staying at a hostel but we had our own room. Being able to stay on the beach was such a cool experience and walking down from your room to hear local talents singing or over to Hennessey to enjoy incredible food. It was a great experience!
The ITH hostel is a fun place to meet people visiting from all over the world. It is a great place to socialize and experience Hermosa Beach when you are traveling!
First time using a hostel, reminded me of being in a military barracks. No frills but it was nice being right on the beach and within walking distance to restaurants and gift shops.
I was a bit confused by the address of the hostel. The uber driver took us to the address, or rather the block where it should have been, but it is actually on the next street north which doesn't have car access.
I would stay there again.
The staff was cool and the place was nice but the pubs around the place were loud, noisy and obnoxious. Mindless people. Of course it is not the hostel's fault. Just a sucky location

Great space if you aren’t looking for a fancy hotel. Clean and cute.
Nice area right on the sand and around a lot of bars and food places for social gatherings a little hard to find in away but FYI look for the red door lol 😂 but customer service was great and friendly had lots of fun
Location is right by the beach, 15 to 20’ walk to public transportation to LAX. Near all dining area

The private room had a lovely location in the building, on the top corner, and was surprisingly quiet! Loads of local spots for nightlife right out the door.
Parking is $50 a day at any of the lots nearby. So parking a car, and not having to move/check on it, is almost impossible. Even when paying the higher rate - you still have to check the meter in the lot twice a day.
Bathroom was not tidy, and old bathmat/rug in the bathroom was a hair magnet and didn't appear to have been changed in eons.
The staff was absolutely awesome. Kind, informative, and welcoming.
Will definitely stay again, simply due to the staff!
