Hostel was awesome. Just be aware of the abuse you will get from Emma. Couldn't have been in a better place when the blackout hit.

Good hostel in an excellent location in the centre of San Diego. A little pricey for that you get, our room was boiling hot all day long and the fan didn't seem to do anything. Best to chill out in the common room and meet others staying their. Prefect for a few days!

Overall I had a great time. Meg, Jess, Dave, Omar, and russle all helped make my stay smooth and were a lot of fun to party with as well. The hostel is in a great location, and while not right on the beach, it is very easy to get to the beach by bus that costs $5.

I had a great stay at USA Hostels in SD. The staff made a huge effort to make everyone happy. There were many social activities offered. I highly recommend the Wednesday night pub crawl, since you're already in the Gaslamp district. They also offered us a hearty supper on Wednesday night - awesome! There are minor things I wish they could improve. There was poor ventilation in the bathrooms, which lent itself to unpleasant odors. Also, the mattresses were a tad uncomfortable.
