It was my first time at a hostel and it was a pleasant experience. The curtains on the bed offer privacy and the outlets next to the bed are convenient as well. Everything is clean which is a plus. The location right next to the beach is clutch for watching the sunset. Bike rentals for a great price. The only thing that bothered me was a slight smell of cheesy foot at night time but I guess that’s inevitable with so many sleeping feet in one space lol. I felt safe and had fun, overall great experience! Thanks California Dreams!
