Had a great trip to the Padres game! wish they would advertise events on their website, was so sad to miss the Tijuana trip by a day! Other than that great hostel in the best location imaginable.

Ok hostel - It is on the beach, but it is not very close to Downtown San Diego. If you do stay here and are catching the Amtrak, you are much better off getting off at "Old Town" than Santa Fe.

Had an amazing time at this gorgeous place, awesome location, friendly and accommodating staff. We missed the Tijuana tour by a day so the staff organized a special tour for us to take the following day. This was an unforgettable experience that I'm glad we got to do. Only regret is that we didn't stay for longer.. 3 days is defiantly not enough time to experience all it has to offer.. Thanks guys

Great location (hop & a skip away from the beach) but some of the staff was less than friendly.

This hostel is for the party type people. Lots of drinking, partying, socializing and a very young crowd. If you like loud music, lots of people, lots of traffic, lots of booze, then this might be for you. If you are looking for something a little more quiet, more "family" then this is definitely not the right place for you.

Really fun hostel. Right on the beach, so that can't be beat. Overall, pretty great time. Here's the kicker though. Most of the people there are basically living at the hostel. Staff included.Been there for several wks or even a month or more. This makes it hard to squeeze into the clicks that have formed. So while everyone was super friendly, after 3 days I still felt like a bit of an outsider...Also, during the day no one does anything, just sit around. I'm a pretty personable traveler too btw
