Convenient location close to airport . I had a good nights sleep after a long days travel. I also enjoyed the complimentary breakfast and chatting with fellow travelers . The staff was very welcoming.

Very clean and I felt very safe. There are a number of rules but all meant to keep everyone safe and comfortable. Bathrooms were clean and the rooms as well. Great little pool and jacuzzi. Surrounding area is a little slow but a quick drive to balboa park and cheap Uber to downtown SD. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend.

Nice place, but a bit expensive for what we got. We had a private room, but it didn’t keep much noise out. Noisy night, including a guest crying in the bathroom on a long phone call. Hope everything turned out okay for her!

Came to San Diego for the first time for a wedding and heading back home the next day. I've never stayed in a hostel before and didn't know what to expect. this place was awesome, all staff are super friendly, guests were also very friendly, the room had 4 bunks, bed was actually very comfortable, and lockers to keep stuff safe (although i felt very safe here). they provided breakfast, there's also a supermarket a block over, down the main street there's a bunch of coffee shops, small restaurants, and corner stores. the area was very nice! i can't think of any negative thing about this place. the planes are kinda loud but being close to the airport is super convenient. i will definitely come back next time i come here!

The place was excellent and so was the staff. The only complaint I have is that when I went to get into my bed, someone was in it and my pajamas were under the pillow and could not get it. So I had to sleep in another bed in my underwear. I guess it was a Logistics error but there was nothing to do but just take whatever the Hostel gave me. I did not find resolution to be as effective as iot should had been.

California Dreams may call itself a hostel, but it's more like a hotel in many ways. Free breakfast, free wifi, pool, willing to hold luggage and help get it to the room, key card locks, and ADA compliant. They even have gender-neutral restrooms on each floor. Only thing that differentiates it is the shared bathroom. The staff were great, especially Sam! We'd highly recommend to anyone.

Staying in a hostel was on my bucket list and at 55, I finally checked it off. This is a really nice place. I stayed here twice this week. Breakfast was even really fresh... The outdoor area cannot be beat! I don't think I'll ever stay anywhere else when I visit my son in San Diego.

We had an amazing experience at California dream Hostel. We stayed in a private room and everything was clean and well organized. Staff was very friendly and helpful as well. Safe area and free parking! The hostel is located close to an airport so we heard planes all the time. The room wasn’t soundproof but that is really the only negative aspect. Overall a great stay! Will definitely visit again!

Cleanness is spotless, the staff were of very helpful friendly & with excellent hospitality--handling customer's issues quickly and so professionally, location is central to the city's attraction sites and near to everything a guest needs, my stay was very enjoyable and I highly recommend the service of this place.

This was a very good experience for me. The hostel has a "good vibe" not only because of the nice environment like outdoors but also the people who work there. Very personable. Cleanliness could be better, sharing a bathroom requires some attention since not everyone cleans up after themselves. I enjoyed the time by myself in the hot tub which can be rented by the hour. I would certainly return there!

Staff was great. Restaurants are close and very good. Bathrooms needed some tending to. Either leave cleaning supplies in bathrooms so we can clean after use or staff clean more often.

Bring your own towel + lock to Save $5. Street parking was hard to find, but staff helped me locate a spot. I checked in about 6pm so the lower twin beds were taken. It was a little rough being top bunk but for the price I'd stay again. Loud, boozy group up late talking but all quiet after 11pm. Everything was clean and accessible. They have bike rentals and hot tub by the hour.

I am a kixury hotel girl, so when I saw the hostel option which was my very first time, I said this was too good to be true but I need this solo down to earth trip. Omg wait!! The communication from staff checking in on me due to my late flight immediately made things best. The staff, the location walkable to everything and not far from the beach. Clean and the breakfast. Everything was so well thought out and it felt like a retreat. I loved every second of my stay. I highly recommend this place. I had time to reflect on alot of things and appreciate life more.

This is only my 3rd time ever staying in a hostel but this was by far the nicest. My only real complaint is that they don't really enforce the quite hours but i fell like that is every hostel. The staff was very nice. Plenty of supplies in the kitchen. The wifi is very good. The fact that they had private rooms available was truly appreciated.

I loved the hostel! The staff was super nice and didn’t mind answering questions or helping you out! The place was a little smaller than I expected but that’s not negative at all!! Super sweet and cosy!! The Pool is for free and the hot tub is super cheap to rent and nice for some down time!! The dorm and bathroom was super clean!

Place and staff we're great. Kinda got unlucky with some of the other dorm residents coming in at 3am. Maybe considering not letting them come back after 12am

Overall, it was just fine. We had a private room and it was comfortable but tiny. Bathrooms felt clean but everything seemed a bit worn around the edges.

My adult daughter and I stayed here on our recent trip to San Diego. I was impressed with the room; we had a private, 2 twin beds. It was in a quiet neighborhood and the hostel was actually very quiet at night. I was surprised by that as I thought there would certainly be some "partiers." It was a 5 minute drive to the beach and in what seemed to be a very safe neighborhood. The staff was friendly and the kitchen was very spacious with plenty of dishes to cook whatever you wanted. Continental breakfast was included. Would stay here again.

Our stay was nothing less than beautiful. We had a nice view from our room, away from everything yet still right by everything you would want or need to see when visiting San Diego.
