Great value hostel, walking distance to the beach. Friendly staff and good atmosphere. I would recommend this place to others. Breakfast included.
In the dorm room they had fans blowing all night. It was fine at first but then someone changed the direction of one of the fans and i woke up cold and with a dry throat.

Location was great. The facilities were well kept and stylish.
There didn’t seem to be too much shared spaces to hang out. There were some next to the smoking area and most were outside in nice covered spaces.

The Hostel is nice and very well located. The rooms and bathrooms are clean. The staff is really nice and helpful.
More hooks in the bathroom would be useful and the breakfast was a bit disapointing.

The whole area has a really nice vibe., Very California. Great location just a couple of blocks from the beach. Lots of restaurant choices interesting place to walk around. The staff were friendly and helpful. The people in area were friendly.
We stayed there on a Friday night and the music from a local club was hard to ignore

I have stayed here before and loved it and this time brought two friends who absolutely loved it also. I have passed this value on to others and my friends are passing it on also! What a find so close to downtown San Diego, close to the beach, with a great vibe! Love it!!

Clean rooms with many separate bathrooms. Breakfast was included, huge social area, well equipped kitchen, no drunk people.
No curtains on the beds, just a 50 long plastic cover at the head area.

For a Hostel, I found the bed very comfortable. I liked the vibe of the place. It was literally 5 minutes from the beach. I was also very impressed by how quiet it was during the night. I stayed there with my niece and my 2 sons and we had a great experience. I liked how we were able to use the kitchen as well. Everyone was very respectful and the hostel was very clean.
It exceeded my expectations honestly. I guess it could have been cheaper given it is a hostel, but overall I was satisfied.

Loved this hostel, really nice friendly vibe, great location on the main street by all the shops and bars, 2 minute walk to the beach. It felt completely safe for a female solo traveller. Breakfast included which was great, and plenty of bathrooms which were clean and in good condition. Some nice hangout areas including an outdoor space too.

best location near beach, great social atmosphere, great breakfast, no need to leave the neighborhood - everything is out your front door, my favorite hostel in SD
heavy weed smoking on back patio, some people might be turned off by that

Thoughtful collection of amenities available, staff were helpful, kind and considerate towards all guests and did a good job of managing the communal areas.
Loved that there were surfboards to hire, easily the cheapest rates on ocean beach. It was great that they had beach chairs, ice boxes and beach towels to borrow.
Also appreciated the space to store bikes.
Communal areas were really nicely laid out giving the place a relaxed feel.
Bathrooms were clean and had a collection of communal bathroom products to borrow which was really handy. Also liked that there were a couple of of private bathrooms as well as the big communal ones.
Would have been cool if there was some communal coffee during the day for those jetlagged travellers but otherwise the kitchen was well stocked and clean. Its great that they offer a simple breakfast too.

Facilities, location,
Rules not followed strictly which creates unpleasant situation for some travelers. They don't take cash, which is important for budget travelers with minimum bank balance in their disposal. Unnecessary rules like an extra payment even if the checkout time is exceeded by few minutes

The size of rooms, the room air can get stuffy because so many folks live in one tiny room.

Its California, but It’s very cold here, especially at night. I wouldn’t recommend it for a vacation.
