I would suggest that in the reservation process you add questions about being from outside the U.S. or a faculty to limit confusion or difficulties when shoing up at the door.

Dorm rooms were OK, though a little cramped and a tad stuffy. Bathrooms could use a fixture upgrade and some cleaning, but generally OK.

Fellow travellers be warned. U.S hostels are not quite like european ones..Unlike the latter which cater primarily to backpackers, U.S hostels contain a lot of long-term customers: usually scruffy american individuals who cannot afford to live elsewhere or have questionable mental health status. I was put in a particularly horrendous room with a woman who talked to herself and claimed everyone was 'out to get her'. If you want to feel safe, and to have fun choose somewhere else. My room was tiny

A lot of activities, movies, games and BBQ. Close to the beach and plenty of restaurant and little stores. Not a lot of young people... Alcohol authorized until 9 pm, terrace until 11, hot-dogs available at the kitchen from 11 pm to 2 am. Well organized and very good breakfast for a Hostel: eggs and pancakes everyday. Parking in the streets arround and grocery store near. Well-equiped kitchen for cooking! Internet wireless and computers ($1 for 20 minutes). Cold and light from the window nea
