"Let's face it, bunk beds are not the most conducive to a good night's sleep. And you can't expect a "hotel room" experience in a hostel. But everyone on the staff was very cool, and while I would probably opt for the expense of a hotel room in the future I did enjoy the experience."

"First hostel turning age 60 soon!! Loved it! Great space! The only problem was that a Bay Arean who was exiled with her grandkids in San Diego Cty from 2016-24, left in 2024 and is now back for 3-4 weeks and then will head back home to the Bay was not able to continue staying due to ID with SD county address. Total shame and exclusionary. I get that it’s an industry standard but it would have been great to continue on! Great kitchen!! Great amenities! Staff was great! Recommend!!! "
