"Very nice hostle. I have not stayed in many hostels in the States but this was one of if not the nicest.The location is a bit out of the way, and way far from where I came from (another hotel in LA); but found the local restaurants interesting enough. Coffee in the morning would have been a nice touch. Getting buzzed in to wait in the yard 1/2 an hour before ckin rather than outside on the sidewalk with bags might have been appreciated as well. Otherwise, nice place, nice stay :). Oh - and one...

"I liked the accessibility to the beach, restaurants and boardwalks. The rooftop view was great! The staff was very friendly! They were prompt to get maintenance when I asked why we didn’t have heat in the room for the first 2 nights and I had 3 cold showers and decided to go to the office about it.
