Its giving halfway house very sketchy individuals staying here, I did get bitten very badly by bed bugs during my stay, a man across from me jumped on his bed and yelled all night so i was not able to sleep, staff was not there at night to stop him and staff did not offer my money back. Very Shady business that’s probably why they are closing.

I'm gonna be honest. The place is nice. The location is nice. But the bed bugs are not nice. I got severely attacked by bed bugs the last 2 times I stayed here. I am bitten all over my body. There's no excuse for why this place has bed bugs. I understand that lots of people are in and out. But there are measures that they obviously are not taking. I feel morally compelled to warn people about this.

Hi. I plan to visit your place and good review for your place, could I stay 21or 22or 23 of July? I sent message this company and felt bad. Do you have e-Mail to contact to you? I book and paid LA location but this time the parking is not available due to road cleaning. I showed up and request cancel but they did not do that. I ask Agoda but they can not help I ask pod share they also did not refund or voucher to next visit.

**THE ONLY 5* REVIEWS ON HERE ARE PEOPLE WHO WORK AT THE HOSTEL. DONT BE FOOLED JUST READ THE REST** The people who run this place need to take some accountability for the reviews and stop sugar coating things and make changes. There is no privacy in the pods as curtains are not allowed. The toilet doors are flimsy, can be easily looked through and do not have proper locks. The back podshare area is meant to have the kitchen out of use from 10pm during quiet time. This is not practiced, there was an individual constantly up and down to the fridge and microwaving food until 2.30am. This fills the room with light. The back door off this area is also continually left open and there were people talking loudly after quiet hours Good location but wouldn't waste the money on this place. Bathrooms were grubby as was the overall place. Towels also smell like wet dog.

This place is downright filthy and an embarrassment to the hostel industry. First and foremost you will leave this place with bugs and bug bites. When we arrived the common areas had dirty food spilled on tables, only 1 of 3 bathrooms had toilet paper, and the entire building stunk like it hadn't been cleaned in years. The receptionist offered a dirty used bunk to our friend, then lied saying another one of our friends had undone the sheets like that. PodShare Venice doesn't deserve your money, time or to even be on this planet anymore stay a million miles elsewhere.

DO NOT STAY HERE. this place is infested with bedbugs. I have bites every day since I have left this disgusting hostel. I have emailed podshare with pictures and will see how they resolve. The place is filthy and does not look like it is cleaned regularly. the toilets barely have a door and there were no additional toilet rolls over a Friday night. I notified the staff via email who said that due to high number of people, don't expect to have toilet paper regularly.

I’m a big fan of the feel of a hostel and this place lived up to the expectation. The property and yard are huge, the bamboo and butterflies and big open grass space was my favorite part of being here. The location couldn’t be better with a coffee shop and the canals essentially across the street, all the restaurants of Abbot Kinney 2 blocks up and the beach and boardwalk only a 12 minute walk away!! I had a blast here. Perfect ground zero for an adventure in Venice!

I love the nature here in the back yard! It’s such an amazing space. The staff are so personable and lovely and really try to accommodate you. I can easily walk to the beach! And I love the area. Definitely coming back!
