- “ Had occasion to need to stay at Surf City on two separate days when in LA. My only complaint is that there really needs to be oscillating fans installed in the rooms because even with all the windows the breeze at night just doesn't have enough force to cool someone down when they're trying to get to sleep. But check-in and check-out were pretty swift - no complaints although the management mistakenly charged me for a no-show when it was supposed to be someone else, but that got fixed easily. ”

- “ Probably one of the best locations to get a hostel in LA. But if you value your sleep then you should know that the hostel is located right next to a very loud bar where loud music plays on Thurs, Fri, and Sat. They also upgraded our room to a single free of charge when we arrived which was very nice. ”

- “ I absolutely loved Surf City Hostel! Steps away from the beach (literally), with a view of the ocean from the room, and an entrance onto a fantastic little street full of great bars. The staff was super friendly and helpful, and made sure I got into a clean room. If you plan on being here on a weekend and need to go to bed early, it's probably best to bring headphones as it is right on top of a bar. Still, absolutely highly recommended! ”

- “ Location of hostel was right on the beach. Very good for beach goers. However it's also right on top of a sometimes noisy bar, so those seeking quiet may be disappointed. Only issue I had was parking. Very hard to come by, especially during busy beach times. Otherwise hostel stay was great. ”

- “ I stayed at Surf City Hostel for one-night in early April and really enjoyed it. The location is awesome, right next to the beach. Parking in the town of Hermosa Beach is a challenge. A parking garage a block north of Surf City is convenient, but does not allow parking from 6 am to 8 am so you have to find parking on the street. Surf City is above a bar and the bar's music was pretty loud so this is not the place for light sleepers. ”

- “ Great location! If your driving the parking is about 8 to 10 blocks away, well at least the free parking. They do allow alcohol there so keep that in mind. The kitchen is supposed to open at 8 but not really. Its more around 8:15 or so even thou the guy is there and ask about it because you'll get a grrrrr. Not that 15 minutes is a big deal but the guy is right there and your on holiday and have plans for the day, so...... ”
