Perfect accommodation for young people traveling on their own.Guest review byEricSolo traveler

- Avg. price/night: $154.80Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.6Excellent - What previous guests thought, 1,638 reviewsThe art everywhere is gorgeous! There are also lovely plants & good lighting. Definitely the prettiest hostel I’ve ever stayed in. Staff were friendly & professional. Breakfast is basic - cereal, fruit, and tea & coffee but better than what we were expecting. Beds were comfortable. There was a little shelf, light, plug & 2 usb ports at each bed. Location was ideal. Bathrooms were basic but very clean.Guest review byAnonymousGroup
- Avg. price/night: $72.35Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.8Excellent - What previous guests thought, 1,127 reviewsMy partner and I stayed in the double bed dorm room, cheaper than other options in the city and a great way to still have privacy with the sectioned/curtained bed areas. The hostel had great showers and a room providing hair dryer/straightener etc, good social areas, and was very clean. The location was great, close to Petco Park and lots of cafes/restaurants near the gaslamp area. Would definitely stay again if in the area.Guest review byEdenYoung couple
