This was my first time staying at a hostel, I have always being afraid of sharing a space with strangers, specially at night, but this place was really nice,clean and comfy, the other guest were also nice and respectfull. I spend the night very peacefully with no issues. The shower was amazing, the flow of the water was nice and warm. I'm tottally staying here in future visits to San Diego. You can find grosserie stores and food places near by as well as public transportation.

First time visitor and loved this new concept hostel! The clientele were all cool people minding their business and the staff was cool as heck. If you are a people person who isn’t fussy about sharing space with fellow humans or hearing slight noises of doors/footsteps (it’s shared space) then you will actually be super impressed how well all your needs are met. Thank you for a great peaceful getaway!

Stayed at two other California hostels in the past couple of years and this one was by far the best. Very private double bed, great bathroom facilities, and overall just a really great experience. My only complaint would be that the kitchen area is small. Hard for more than one person to move around in there.
