Didn’t realize this was a shared living space. It was advertised with hotels in Downtown San Diego. The stay was ok bc I had a lot of things on my itinerary but probably wouldn’t stay again.

Great location to be walkable distance from most things. Staff were great and felt very safe with the security of the building. Our private room was great, nice to have a sink outside of the bathroom. Breakfast area was nice and kept very tidy.

Really convenient location! I was in town for a concert near Petco Park and it was less than a 10 minute walk. Used public transportation to get around, and it was super easy. Due to location, it gets noisy at night but it wasn’t an issue for me. Would recommend if you’re staying for a quick trip.

Had the private room. Very ran down room with a strong sewer smell. Urine stains on the toilet. Blow dryer did not work. 0 sound proofing and there was a guy coughing violently the entire night outside and can hear everything.

First time staying at a hostel and I really liked it! It was quaint, decorated really cute and artsy, friendly staff, it was clean as any hotel I’ve stayed. And the price for being in the heart of the Gaslamp district was amazing. I’d stay again.

Great location. Minimal amenities, but we don't need much. Bring your own laptop, as no radio or TV in room.

We are older and really enjoyed a room with a bathroom.
We consider HI our #1 address to stay for meetings in the SD Convention Center.

We stayed here one night and our room was very clean, and quiet. Only a couple blocks away from petco park. If you’re coming to San Diego and won’t really be in your room, I recommend staying here. Beats all the other prices around.

Location was excellent to downtown activities.

Receptionist was extremely unprofessional, rude, condescending, and refused to provide the website name so that we could see updated photos of rooms. I felt like I was speaking with a stubborn child. Probably one of the worst experiences we've had, especially for paying ComicCon rates; over $350/night for a private room

Near downtown good point

The staff were super nice, but unfortunately that did not make up for the state of the property, which was pretty dirty. Floors in the room were sticky, washrooms had no fan and smelled of mildew, and overall was pretty nasty. Also the elevator was broken. Unfortunately I can't recommend this place...

I stayed in a private room with a shared bathroom because I am 41 and I snore. It was a great room! I highly recommend HI gas lamp- the location is convenient and it is a great price for the area!

Great amenities in a well managed downtown hostel. Street level a late night noisy party atmosphere, but hostel has a theater tv room, hall libraries, pool table, clean common area kitchen & dining, an outdoor atrium, helpful bulletin boards. Guests seemed respectful of one another; all wore required masks. Clean common area bathrooms, nice furnishings.
