    Good hostel for travelers. It really feels like a place for people who are traveling, not locals just hanging around. I stayed in another hostel in LA before, but it was full of locals, so I left the next day with no refund. I found this place after and it was much better. Good price for what you get. Breakfast is included, bathrooms are clean, and body wash is provided. I wish they had a hairdryer ^^

    Overall, my stay was good. The check-in was smooth, the staff were super kind, attentive. Suggestion: have daily cleaning in the rooms, pay attention to the rules inside the rooms especially about food and keep the door closed.

    The room was in Building D and was amazingly quiet. Very clean. I'm staying in Los Angeles from Hawaii for acting and highly recommend the Rumi. The staff are the best part of the experience as they are very hospitable.
