Okay to start off Sam and his wife who I interacted with during check-in and checkout was very nice and hospitable.
Now on to the actual place, if you are considering staying here I think it would be ideal for a short stay. The location is close to Redondo and Hermosa Beach, close to LAX and about 25 mins from Downtown LA. Location is great. As for the room, remember that it is a hostel and you are sharing a room. There may be people snoring, making noise, during sleeping hours. This is a very affordable place to sleep just know you get what you pay for.
