The hostel is the best place I’ve stayed in San Diego as far as cost benefit. It is in an excellent location (took bus to the airport quite easily), lots of restaurants, easy to get around downtown. Something the photos don’t show is that the beds actually have curtains on them, which gives excellent privacy for sleeping and makes a huge difference for hostel experience in my opinion. Breakfast was included as well. Front desk staff is super friendly and helpful! Also bathrooms were extremely clean for a hostel. Great experience and will stay here again next time I’m in SD!
