  • Location is great (on the 5th). Breakfast is for free. Internet access not. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The only problem is that if you get the rooms facing the 5th Ave you´ll find them noisy especially on the weekends. Other than that this a good place to stay at in San Diego. I will stay there if I ever go back again.

  • Nice and welcoming hostel and staff, they always try to improve their offers and make it a nice stay for you. Perfect location in the middle of the Gaslamp Quarter. The rooms are a bit of a hole (no real windows), but it was okay for me. I would come again.

  • I loved this hostel! I totally recommend it to people passing through. Loved the breakfast and the "family room" and the bright colors and the ease of everything.

  • Overall nice experience. Sleeping was a challenge. Way too loud in the rooms facing Fifth Ave. Parties with loud music until 2 am.

  • The hostel has a very good location also the staffs are super kind. I met some great people here and I totally enjoyed staying this hostel. The one thing could be better is bath room. Women and men have to use same bath room.

  • It's in the middle of the gaslamp district which is party town so don't count on much sleep. Everything else is pretty good. I don't like big hostels so i didn't have that good of a time.

  • Mike-Peoria,IL I stayed 4 nights at this hostel--Location is perfect in downtown San Diego.in the middle of all resturants,bars,nightlife.. Good Breakfast.Secure dorms and hostel,clean If you have a car , you may want to park it further out(15 min walk) if you want free parking, otherwise you will have to pay $ 10-20 a night...I suggest not renting a car in San Diego-- -Staff are helpful,rooms are good size.Overall, best hostel-, I would definitely come back to this hostel when I am here

  • I don't like this hostel actually. It was bad that some club musics are turned on always. And it was too hot in the room. Men and women used same bathroom.

  • My friend and I were travelling for the first time and this hostel was excellent.We stayed for 4 nights and took part in a trip to Tijuana (which we highly recommend), a pub crawl and a games night. The staff are super friendly and make you feel welcome as soon as you arrive. The only warning is that due to the location the hostel is noisy on a night if you are in a room at the front so if you aren't into partying then this may not be the place for you!We will definitely be returning.
