  : the staff were really lovely and people living there were pretty kind and friendly.
  : I woke up with what I thought were maybe just some hives. I have since returned home and have several other "hives" pop up this last morning in a sort of pattern that looks like bed bug bites- Ive had bed bugs in a living situation in the past so I feel pretty convinced that they were those. I feel confident that it was the podshare at Venice- I have only been camping for the last two weeks prior, and then returned directly back to my family's house and woke up with more bites the next day. After noticing this, I also saw a review that had a clear photo of someone finding a bed bug in the washroom. It seems really irresponsible to be still trying to make business off of renting beds to travellers, while theres clear evidence of bed bugs. I am really hoping I haven't brought them back to my family's house. Not only is it the holidays, but I also have two elderly parents dealing with health problems who don't need to deal with this stuff. Bringing back bed bugs from your poorly run business would be really stressful.

  : Interesting setup with all the beds on top of each other on one big property. Kitchen was good and all worked ok, big backyard space and offered parking which is great.
  : We were unaware that it is “against company policy” to place a sheet over your bed when sleeping. My partner and I were very uncomfortable trying to sleep with people walking past our bed frequently within 2ft from our heads on the creaky floorboards.Beds were full of bedbugs too as per previous reviews.Wifi didn’t work.Toilets are too small, and lucky for us, a lady (who we were told was a guest) took up one of the stalls for over 2 hours playing loud music through her phone while smoking out of a glass pipe (we saw because of the gaps in the doors of the toilets and could smell it).Upon telling staff, the lady at the desk kindly informed us that the toilet dweller “wasn’t smoking crack and hadn’t even been in there that long…she was simply using a vape and lost track of time”.Staff is passive aggressive, place is unsafe for your valuables, and they’re clearly cool with people getting on it in the bathrooms. Would not stay again

  : Lovely little hostel with plenty of space and lots of facilities. Staff were friendly and helpful and there is also a lovely big garden. Beach is also only a 5 min walk away which is really nice.
  : The pods for couples are a bit of a squish and there's no lockers to lock up your bits (or if there are we weren't told about them).

Pleasant

  : Convenient. Free vegetables and fruit
  : It was cold at night. The blankets provided are very thin. The bathroom was also very small given how many beds the place had. 2 toilets. 2 showers. 1 shower has a place to leave stuff and better for privacy. The other shower has nowhere to place items so you have to leave it out of the shower stall if you don't want it to get wet.

  : Location
  : It’s dirty, no privacy, no curtains so nobody can see you in bed. Bathrooms awful and dirty, a lot of creepy guys walking naked…. girls shouldn’t be there alone. There should be separation for men and women beds and bathrooms
