USA Hostels San Diego Reviews

Cramped dormitories

The hostel is located in such a great area! A+ for this. We stayed in a private double room, which was tiny. No room for two suitcases. Our friends stayed in a private twin bed room and this was twice the size. I would recommend going for that instead. Overall the hostel was good, the bathrooms clean, however at night it can be really noisy. Bring earplugs!

Awesome atmosphere (lot of party) and location (in the middle of the nightlife). Parking availables close to the hostel (15 bucks per day). Unfortunately I would not recommend this hostel if: - you want to rest and sleep well (guests were really noisy and the staff didn't care) - you want good facilities (rooms are very small and often without windows at all, showers are very very basic....) It's definitely a party hostel.

Do the Tijuana tour!!!

centrally locted in gaslamp district and easily access to big shopping horton plaza and convenient to go everywhere from hostel.breakfast is great and locker is excellent as there is power supply inside.

Everything was cool. The Tijuana tour was kinda weak. Felt to planned and not the real Tijuana I wanted to see

everything was excellent! my only complaint was sending unsuspecting tourists to ocean beach without some kind of warning on how unsafe and gross it was on the main drag....both the board and the staff recommended it.

I enjoyed my stay at this hostel and made lots of friends, thanks for always keeping the friendly atmosphere!

Very good stay, enjoyed it there, good staff!

Excellent staff. Small rooms. No washing facilities due to upgrade. Enjoyed my stay

Quite simply the best hostel I've ever stayed in. Fantastic location, great staff, absolutely impeccably clean. Being 30, I was worried that it might be too much of an 18-year-old backpacker party place but it's not - there's a nice and relaxed vibe, people doing their own thing but it's super friendly at the same time. Don't stay anywhere else in San Diego - this is THE place. Oh, Tanya is a fantastic hairdresser - ask her to cut your hair and she'll do a great job!

Everything is perfect. I'd only suggest that the hostel prepare a little breakfast, instead of guests prepare their own breakfast.

This hostel is located in an ideal part of downtown San Diego (gaslight district). There are heaps of really cool pubs near by so it is not to hard to stumble home after you have had a skin full.

Nice hostel, great location, everything you would need the only issue was it was very dull, the way the hostel is set up means it is not easy to socialize. There is a lounge room but the door is closed and its not very 'enticing'. Do not stay at this hostel if you are looking for a party hostel, do stay here if you want a quiet, chilled couple of nights.

Location was the major positive of the hostel but the hostel itself was pretty average.

It' a perfect place to stay in busy downtown San Diego. Perfect to discover everything. But! You should get new windows for the rooms facing the 5th street for noise reduction. You can only get to sleep after 2am. After all the clubs are closed. Anything else was just fine!

The room was quite noisy

awesome hostel, probably the best i stayed it

Brilliant Hostel. Well planned, and well thought out. The options for breakfast were brilliant. A really comfortable place.

The facility had a vibrant and warm energy. The staff was awesome. Great location. I will definitely be back!! Couldn't ask for a more perfect location.
