Great place to stay! I’ve stayed a few times and I have been satisfied each time. The staff is great and very helpful if I have any questions. Andrea has been awesome with making sure I am settled. I do plan on staying again in the near future.✌
I love the staff there especially Katilyn, she was so sweet and nice. Everyone else was awesome as well! I couldn’t have stayed anywhere nicer. Will definitely come back there next time. I am mad I left early I didn’t think clearly on what I was doing. But good times
This place was a lucky find. Very friendly community, clean and colorful, and hospitable. Great for a first visit to the city. Close to airport too.
Staff was responsive and helpful. Please be aware that this is a hostel with shared rooms and bathrooms, but it is a delightful spot for the single traveler.
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.
The magic of this place is hard to describe... It starts with the tasty breakfast.. and continues with the warm hearted staff who makes every moment feel like home.. To the comfortable accommodations and the many interesting guests. To the special activities that happen daily.. I feel blessed ❤️
