Nice & cool looking space. Very comfortable bed. Perfect location to visit Venice & Santa Monica!

Camille, United States of America

Location was pretty good, value was good for LA standards I guess. There were some nice features like a screen in your dorm.

Wouter, Netherlands

Podshare is perfect because it is located very close to Venice beach and places where you can eat very well. The beds are very comfy and despite is a hostal you feel secure.

Alejandra, Colombia

The place is very clean and comfortable, there’s a lot of amenities and the staff is always nice

Costantino, United States of America

I never met a more pleasant staff then here at Pod Share. No matter what time of day or question they are the friendliest staff you would ever encounter.

Jennifer, United States of America

Nice piece of property with a basketball court tables tennis and places to lay out and relax. The beds were comfortable and the showers were really nice... overall a great experience especially if your traveling alone!!!

Énio, United States of America

Everything and everyone was truly awesome from the front-of-house operations to the very neat lofty space to relax. It was a rainy day during my short visit. The rain on the skylights was so relaxing, I got a really good night's rest. The guest were very mannered.

Expected a 6 bed dorm, but ended up in one massive area with way more people. Very noisy; couldn’t take a shower after 11pm because it would make too much noise. Besides, there were not enoigh facilities for all the people (3 showers/3 toilets). During our stay the whole place smelled of weed, since a few guest kept smoking in the yard and all the doors are constantly open. Staff wasn’t helpfull or polite when asked simple questions about the area or transportation; we were told just to look it up on google straight away..
Location was pretty good, value was good for LA standards I guess. There were some nice features like a screen in your dorm.

no intimacy at all. We are used to sleeping in hostels but this one is different. The toilet doesn't have a real door and was right next to our bed , we kept hearing people going to the bathroom every 10 minutes until 2 am ( even with the earplugs in our ears) and all the noises that you can imagine with it ! It is basically an open space with beds, a kitchen, a bathroom and toilets altogether with NO real doors in between....

We were a party of 5; three of us stayed in twin beds and were happy with what they got, but the 2 that got a double bed did not sleep at all due to their bed being located just next to the shower and toilet. People would use it all night, talking out loud. The toilet flushing and constant lights on were extremely disturbing.

There isn't much interaction between guests. No bar, I was hoping to meet up with other travellers like other hostels I've been in but no such luck Although I did see signs for a bbq the weekend after I was leaving. I'd suggest more events like that, even if lower key
Location and staff were great. Bed comfortable

Mattress sunk in the middle, very uncomfortable. A lot of noise during the night. No cereals left for breakfast.. We had stayed in podshare dtla for three nights and breakfast was always provided and plentiful.
Love the shared open space. Excellent laundry service. Great, well equipped kitchen. Free crackers and noodles. Perfect location to the beach.

Extremely clean and nice vibe to the place. Parking is super easy nearby even if the car park on site is full. Staff very friendly and helpful on tips for things to see and places to eat nearby. Each bed has it's own lighting, power sockets and tv set. The freebie soft drink and hangover cure were a nice touch!

Could do with having a few more toilets and showers, and more privacy on the shower/toilet doors. Kitchen needs to be stocked with a few more bowls, glasses etc.
The hostel is in a great location in Venice just a short walk from Abbott Kinney street, Venice Canals and the beach. The set up of being able to book a double dorm bed was great. The social spaces are lovely too.

And I really enjoyed sitting outside in the sun to eat our free breakfast! Everyone kept the noise down and were so respectful of each other. Best hostel I have ever stayed in!

The parking lot does not have a lot of space, we could not park there at night as it was crowded. We were able to park on the street, but not so close to the podshare.
The podShare have an amazing staff. Their facilities are huge, modern and everything there is based on respect for others privacy. It's a great experience of shared living.
