A little messy

Good place

Is good

The staff is very kind & helpful.

Super nice ocean view for currently about $35 a night! Really nice staff and guests. I was freaking out the whole time and nobody said a single thing. Also, they have a lot of activities and bbqs. Im quite concerned about the owner's business skills. J/k

Perfect position, good breakfast and very friendly staff and guests

It was rarely cleaned. Guests and hosts were plastered drunk and loud till very lat at night (3am ish) most of the property is exposed to the elements, which makes the dorms and commons smell like mildew & mold. Ceiling leaked water on a bunk. Last night while I was sleeping someone from the out side was trying to get in and pick a fight. Ended up breaking part of the back patio. I could hear it happen while laying in my bunk. Did not feel safe.

Great location. Right on the beach and affordable.

The hostel has a great enviroment and atmosphere, but the private room was very small, a little dirty, the fan was disgusting and there was mold in the bathroom. The brazilian host that greeted us was super nice and kind!

Great location

Was great! Love place and peoples inside! ❣️ wanna come back always

Loved staying here at ITH Beach Bungalow Surf Hostel! Right on the beach, fun activities planned throughout the day, breakfast included, friendly staff-I would highly recommend if you’re looking to save a little money & meet new people in a fun community based environment.

Very affordable. Great location. Unfortunately, despite the 10pm lights out/quiet time, there were some who would talk all night, put the lights on etc. I got no sleep and had to find another place to stay. But I loved the location. Plenty to do and see. Enjoy… if you can!

The Employees were friendly we didn’t expect a lot for the price on the beach but we did expect the room we rented. This was not the deluxe private room in the pictures. Bed was comfortable but the room was in the worst shape I’ve ever stayed at. Been with my wife over 30 years and never had her stay in a room this bad. But surprisingly she was ok with it. The place has an amazing vibe lots of history and it’s unique. I would just like the room we rented on the pictures. Someone needs to spend a couple of days caulking and painting. We couldn’t touch the bathroom sink or it would fall. It’s anoint an inch from the wall. The ceiling has 3 types of texture or not at all. They have breakfast as it says but you have to cook your own. They provide eggs and pancake mix. No creamer or sugar for the coffee. It is what you make of it. Like I said good vibe, friendly people but at least give me the room I saw on the Hotels.com. We checked out and someone threw up all over our car looked like top ramen dried up. Not the Hotels fault though. Just remember looks and pictures are extremely deceiving.

The area is great. Although the bunk beds aren’t in the right spots becuase of the ladders. It could definitely be remodeled. Super old and a lot of rusty spots.

Absolutely heaven

It was a beautiful place. This place so much

Travelers who value a good night’s sleep and cleanliness might want to choose a different hostel. The location on the beach is great but you’re roughing it here, it’s not comfortable, loud music, people talking late into the night and early morning, maybe before surfing. Also, not enough bathrooms. Too many people are sharing just two bathrooms, one in their room and one other in the common area. And cleanliness is an issue. Bathrooms are not cleaned often enough because they were not clean during my one night stay. And a lack of toilet paper in the bathrooms. Overall, this hostel is a base for surfing, sleep a little and catch a wave!

I had a good time. It’s a friendly little place and most of the people are kind.

Colorful and friendly

I didn't realize from the description that this place was going to be like a summer camp for college age partiers. It was not the place to choose for peace and rest. The location is excellent and it is a fun atmosphere... Certainly geared towards young 20 year olds with themed nights like "jungle juice night" etc. The Facebook page mentioned surf lessons are available from staff but the staff there seemed not so willing to do it. Thats minor sunce there is a surf shop nearby that will. Parking is pretty terrible though. If I was 21 and looking to get wasted and mingle it would be a perfect spot. I just wanted to enjoy the beach, get good rest, and maybe make some new traveling friends. The place has some character for sure.

In poor condition. Few doors or windows made it quite uncomfortable on mornings of 40 degrees. They don't seem to like older guests.

Friendly and helpful crew were sincere and hard worker. Environment was excellent.

Great, clean, place to stay! Staff very friendly, and helpful!

I love the place...great location

Clean,friendly and good party

What i liked the most was people's vibe. Staff and tourists. Nice place with the beach right there

Great. Everyone was extremely friendly. Definitely will come back!

This hostel is absolutely disgusting! For the price its best to just stay somewhere else, anywhere else! The only good thing was that it is right at the beach. The woman who checked me in gave me the wrong door code a few times and didn't explain how to open the door. When I arrived there was only a sheet on the bed and when I got back that night the sheet was GONE! I had to sleep with a TOWEL! It was cold! No one informed me that I needed to ask for a comforter and I'm not sure why they didn't give me one when I checked in or at least put one on the bed. The bathroom in the all-female room looked like it has NEVER been cleaned! It was absolutely DISGUSTING and the toilet seat was all ripped. Only God knows what happened there. The photos are a COMPLETE LIE! The photos make it look like it is bright and clean but it is dirty and grungy. The health department would shut them down. There is a kitchen that you can use but it is unusable, I even took a photo of the stove because I was in disbelief that people actually used this. I used to live in San Diego and this was just one of many places that I stayed at during my trip and this was the worst I could have imagined for so many reasons. Maybe if the price actually reflected the conditions, meaning 10 dollars a night, then I would have been a little more ok with it. But for this price, please stay somewhere else. The other people staying there were inconsiderate and I was woken up every morning at 7am. Rise and shine!

They should use the money they spent on a DJ for a Halloween party to hire a professional cleaning service instead. The place looked like it hasn’t been cleaned in 10 years. The slits on the fan cage in the room I stayed in were half the size they should be due to a buildup of dirt and dust from god knows how long ago. Bathroom was covered in mold. The sheets I was given had black stains all over them. The overall concept of this place is awesome… the front desk girl could be more welcoming.. but really it’s the cleanliness that will cause me to not go back.
