Great wonderful staff. Location is in the middle of Gaslamp District. Very convenient if your looking for a place to stay at the last minute. For those coming to Petco Park, I highly recommend, since it's knly 5 minutes walking.

Awesome place.

Well this was the 2nd time I've used this hostal and will say the staff is super helpful, made some improvements and did enjoy the activities that they have. Kitchen and dinning area was still nice. Plus always getting some cool or awesome bunk mates. If you need a good place to crash for the night I'd recommend this place. Even if it's for your 1st time.

My first ever hostel stay and it was amazing! The staff were lovely and had lots of recommendations for things to do. They'd often check in at the end of the day asking how my day was and what I'd been up to. Would definitely go bsck
