8/10 Very good

I had a good stay but there was no real breakfast. Just bread and peanut butter and nutella both days. One guy ate the entire thing of strawberries and made himself 4 sandwiches leaving no bread for the rest of us….rooms are cozy and private and the balcony was amazing for fresh air.

It was okay
Allen, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Your staff is either spying on me, while I'm in bed or allowing others on the property too. I'm sure you have cameras that can verify this. I'm very uncomfortable and feel unsafe. This is beyond words
Kris, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

overall acceptable, with the price you can't expect much.
Yixiang, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The business was a great idea, but vetting personalies and the expectations that adults should act accordingly and understand that some people are in need of walkung around, going to the bathroom and changing their clothes to leave at any given time is a part of grown up life. It would help avoid childesh

Liam, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I stayed at the Rumi Hostel for two nights and I loved the atmosphere and how comfortable the bedroom and living room were, as well as the convenience of the complimentary breakfast. It was great value and worth the stay. The metro stop was also close by as well as good visiting sites. I would definitely like to come back here again whenever I visit LA next time!
Haniya, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent experience.

The Rumi is exactly what it says it is. A hostel for travelers. I slept well and the property was well located and comfortable.
Gregory, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Hostel - 6/10

The breakfast was simple but there were flies around the kitchen. Went inside the bedroom and fruit flies were hovering over my bottom bunk bed because the trash next to me was full! Bathroom were OK clean. The bathrooms need more hanging hooks or even a little mini table to put toiletries on there and hang towels (if need to). Most hostels I’ve stayed were pretty up kept but this one was probably a 6/10 - I don’t think I would recommend that it!
