Simple and affordable however the room we stayed in needed some repairs especially the floor yet I understand the building must be old

You paid for what a Hostel is, but could be better. We had a private room : the air conditioner was super loud and old, smell bad. The bed wasn’t comfortable at all. I’ve been to other Hostel and the food offers were more diversified. You will have access to just : bagel, oat, coffee and banana. It still a nice place on a low budget, very good emplacement, the staff is professional and gentle.

The quality of the room varies depending on who you are staying with. It was difficult for me because I was in the same room with someone who smelled.

Perfect stay. I knew it was going to be noisy because I saw lots of complaints but we didn’t mind it at all. You’re in the middle of the Gaslamp Quarter for such a good price! It will be busy. It works best for people that are actually going out and enjoying the busyness of the street. I appreciate the free breakfast but I would recommend having additional options for different diets such as non-dairy creamers.

It’s ok for what it is. You have to make your own bed and some of the mattresses have weird stains on them.

I enjoyed staying in a private bedroom here. A bathroom/shower was always available when I needed one. I appreciated the friendliness of the staff and the art in the hallways. Super convenient location, especially if you are attending something at the convention center. Great budget choice of accommodations.

First time staying at a hostel. I tried my best to not make noise since I came in late and left early. Other than that it was nice and as expected.
8.0 / 10.0
This stay was very reasonably priced. The room was comfortable, and I felt safe in the building. I loved the location for being in walking distance to the convention center and so many nice restaurants and shops. I loved the art and the convenience of the kitchen, too. The only drawback is that it is an exceptionally noisy neighborhood. Since my small ears reject ear plugs, I was subjected to the music and general ruckus of the street below until well after 2 AM, no matter the day of the week.

Everything was nice except the music. There was music going until 4 in the morning. The night staff was really hospitable especially since I checked in late.

Didn’t realize this was a shared living space. It was advertised with hotels in Downtown San Diego. The stay was ok bc I had a lot of things on my itinerary but probably wouldn’t stay again.

Great location to be walkable distance from most things. Staff were great and felt very safe with the security of the building. Our private room was great, nice to have a sink outside of the bathroom. Breakfast area was nice and kept very tidy.
8.0 / 10.0
Really convenient location! I was in town for a concert near Petco Park and it was less than a 10 minute walk. Used public transportation to get around, and it was super easy. Due to location, it gets noisy at night but it wasn’t an issue for me. Would recommend if you’re staying for a quick trip.

First time staying at a hostel and I really liked it! It was quaint, decorated really cute and artsy, friendly staff, it was clean as any hotel I’ve stayed. And the price for being in the heart of the Gaslamp district was amazing. I’d stay again.

Great location, parking was affordable, in Gaslamp near food/bars. Great looking room! Had everything we needed, very clean. Had issues with cards to room deactivating for unknown reason and only one working.
