It's like a hot-pillow hotel.

There are cheerful and energetic staff members.

I am a woman and I hate men. Even though I told the hostel in advance that I don't want to share a room with a man, please give me a women's room, a man was in my room. Not considerate enough. I often saw the staff of this hostel having fun with men and women in the living room, toilet, and shower in the middle of the night. I was told by the staff to give it five stars when I checked out. I was asked to manipulate the rating. So I gave it five stars as requested. It should be about two stars. This is a hostel with selfish staffs. Please work more seriously. The bed creaks a lot. Many people were sounding the alarm in the kitchen. There are only stairs, so moving luggage is difficult.

Favorite Hostel Stay Yet

Fab location in downtown SD in the ♥️ of the Gaslamp! Funky old Victorian brothel turned hostel and they kept much of the interior charm of the old saloon days. Be sure to pack your groceries as you have access to a full kitchen with commercial space and the breakfast bar means you shouldn’t starve ever.

The beds were comfy I just wish they weren’t college style dorm bunks. It would be fun if they were more built in to project the charm of the buildings era.

It was perfect, but thoroughly cleaning the showers will make this place terrific.

The location is perfect, and breakfast is an excellent addition to the hostel stay. The room was spotless, and the staff showed genuine hospitality.

However, the restrooms, and especially the shower, were filthy. I lost any wish to go there after seeing little black worms in the shower.

Cool vibe in a Hoppin area of town, clean rest rooms, our 6-Bed Dorm had plenty of room.

As far as location, it depends on why your there? The Gaslamp District is "Party Central" and our room faced the street, so as the sun went down the(people/music/traffic)noise went up. If you are there for the party, you're likely good and it was great for people watching spot, but not if your turning in early to be a "tourist''. The breakfast was sparse but did the job to get you started and was a nice way to mingle. Kitchen was cool, well equipped with room to work and do use the dining area upstairs, it's a nice vibe.

Well, we slept in the 6-bed dorm Rm. with Bunks, and the mattress are a bit thin(for us full figured guys). With three water closet and three shower stalls in each of the two bathrooms it can be a bit of wait at peak use(and closed while being cleaned).

Pleasant

near the train station. Friendly staff.

it’s in the Gaslamp bar area. Some tenants drink too much and start to go crazy, which will disturb other tenants. But it may also be a problem of sound insulation.

Very good

The only place in San Diego for this price, and not bad. It is a social place and there are interesting people. Lots of events.

The street is pretty noisy on weekends.

fantastic, but needs improvement over smell

The reception helped me a lot to transfer to a new room when i felt uncomfortable from my previous room. thank you!

smell of the room, well the rooms are clean and nice but i think there was a specific smell that I dont like whenever I’m entering the dormitory room, it smells like the carpet accumulated a specific smell or something that resembles to a sweaty jacket or wet towel left indoors to dry but turned out smelly

Calm space, great stay!

Such a cool, chill space with many options to sit and hang out, talk to people and enjoy the time! They have a great kitchen, nice common area with events and games. The showers and restrooms are clean as are the rooms. Beds are alright, plenty of outlets, light and fans. If you’re too cold they offer extra blankets. They also have plenty of washing machines. The staff is incredible! If you wanna meet people and have a good experience this is the hostel to go to. Also good for introverts as you’ll be included or left alone however you express!

The water pressure was a bit weak. Also it might be a little loud in early evening hours but it always did quiet down by 11 pm.

The location, the cleanliness, the friendly staff.

The room doesn't have a bathroom, the bathroom is shared outside the room The room is small. You have to pay 5 dollars for the lock of your locker.

Only if desperate

The photos

The actual experience (room smelled very bad, it was loud, every time person on lower bunk moved the whole bed shook). The kitchen was locked in the morning. I made my coffee in a sad dark back room

I really would recommend this place!

The property is clean and the sharing areas are really well organized. The stuff is friendly and sooo nice. The position is great, since is exactly in the middle of Gaslamp, where there are all the locals for the night and close to public transportations and city attractions.

We didn’t have any kind of problem!

Everything was great. The location of the hostel is in such a great place, so many restaurants and thinga to walk too. The bus stop for the san diego airport is 2 blocks away, which is so convenient. The staff are great and welcoming. The hostel itself is beautiful lots of cool,amazing art and light.

Nothing really i did not like.
