Matisse, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was the best hostel for this price I have ever seen! Especially considering that it is so close to the beach and pier. The last hostel I went to at this price was basically a homeless shelter.
Robert, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent!
The hotels are costly, and I've stayed in a Santa Barbara Hostel before. It was an excellent stay! (No one was in my room that night; therefore, I used my CPAP.)

Daizy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I really enjoyed the stay in your hostel. Its very close to the pier and only a few minutes to the puplic transportation. The rooms are clean and there are also a lot of separate rooms, where you can stay (porch, libary, tv room)
Luisa, 2-night trip

pretty clean
Eric, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice property in a safe and beautiful location. I was initially concerned about safety, but its in a well patrolled area and its close to the beautiful Santa Monica beach
Arthur, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

The facility was great, one of the best I've been to in recent times. but the beds were super creaky making it difficult to sleep through the night without making a sound
Shlok, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

All the staff were helpful and knowledgeable on the area. This place hosted a comedy night while I was there, and I believe they do other events, which is a nice included benefit.
