It's a lovely place and I love the vibes of the staff and the people I stayed with. I will give a warning to people looking... it's a LOT of stairs. So it's probably not for people with bad knees lol. Otherwise, I absolutely recommend this hostel for anyone traveling to San Diego for whatever reason
