The location of the hostel was very nice - right on Venice beach! It could get a little loud at night with people outside playing music but it's to be expected when you're so close to the beach. The room was clean and comfortable. The woman who checked us in was also nice and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

Great Location And Staff

Very helpful staff who obliged all reasonable requests. Comfortable lounge for dining and chatting. Great location near the beach and boardwalk. Would recommend staff-led meet and greets, and maybe trivia contests to facilitate communication and unity amongst the guests. Definitely recommend this property.

Nice find!

So this place shouldn't be slept on. Booked this place after cancelling a slightly more expensive place. The rate you in book is the rate you pay. Pretty straightforward just don't trash the place and you won't get an incidentals charge. You can pay seemingly any method just need a major credit card for the incidentals charge supposing you damage something. I guess you could consider that the "deposit" except they don't hold anything on the card. Stayed for one night, woke up and took full advantage of the free Continental breakfast. Its free, basic and decent. Bagels, tangerines and toast are offered. They provide butter, cream cheese, little jellies and peanut butter. They have tea, hot cocoa and coffee as well, coffee is instant if that matters. They also have creamer, sugar and sweeteners. Im a big guy i had a top bunk and it was sturdy and comfy. Pillows are pretty small but not a deal breaker, blankets and sheets are provided and do the job to keep you warm. Definitely coming back. Good service from the front desk, bathrooms are clean, toilets and showers work well. They provide towels and wash cloths also.

Prime Location with a Beach Vibe

As a mature traveler seeking a short but memorable stay in Venice Beach, I found the Samesun Venice Beach Hostel to be a fitting choice. While the accommodation may lean towards the rugged side, its prime location more than made up for it. Situated mere footsteps away from the vibrant cultural scene of Venice Beach and the iconic Santa Monica Pier, this hostel offers an experience that encapsulates the essence of the area. Upon arrival, I was immediately struck by the lively atmosphere surrounding the hostel. From the colorful boardwalk to the eclectic mix of street performers and vendors, Venice Beach exudes a unique energy that is simply infectious. The proximity to this cultural hub allowed me to immerse myself fully in the sights and sounds of this iconic destination. The hostel itself may not boast luxurious amenities, but it provides all the essentials for a comfortable stay. The dormitory-style rooms were clean and tidy, and the communal areas offered ample space for socializing and relaxation.

Nice ocean views

Front desk staff was hit or miss. The day person was very friendly and helpful but the night person was kinda rude and dismissive. The room itself was normal, with nice ocean views. Toiletries and towels were provided, possibly only because I had a private room. The room floor was kinda dusty though so it is recommended to walk around with sandals or socks. The linens were clean but the mattress and pillows were terrible. I appreciated the luggage storage at no additional cost and the lounge looked ok. I did not use the kitchen nor ate the complimentary breakfast. The hostel is in a very noisy area surrounded by loud bars with rowdy crowds, but this is expected given the area. Just not adequate for light sleepers or people looking for a peaceful stay. Guests come in and out of rooms all the time and you can hear all the conversations happening in the hallway and even other rooms. Once again, this is normal for a hostel.
