This hostel is simply amazing. The location is absolutely fantastic: about 2 blocks from Little Italy. The rooms are comfortable and even though there are 4 people per room (8 people per section), it never felt crowded. The staff is very fun and friendly and they host free activities every day of the week during the day and at night. We got a walking tour of Little Italy and downtown San Diego as part of the day activity, and played games, music, and watched a movie as part of one of the nightly activities. We were there for only 2 nights, and we met awesome travelers from Australia, Italy, Canada, France, Brazil, Mexico, and Norway. Breakfast and dinner are included in the package, and aside from the great food, we appreciated having another opportunity to mingle with other interesting people. I only wish we'd stayed longer!
