Must try!
I had a wonderful week in the heart of Gaslamp. The staff was really kind and provided good service. I enjoyed the complimentary breakfast, however it could do with a couple of protein options. The location of the hostel is perfect for exploring most of the iconic parts of the city. I hope to be back once again!

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect stay. I knew it was going to be noisy because I saw lots of complaints but we didn’t mind it at all. You’re in the middle of the Gaslamp Quarter for such a good price! It will be busy. It works best for people that are actually going out and enjoying the busyness of the street. I appreciate the free breakfast but I would recommend having additional options for different diets such as non-dairy creamers.

It’s ok for what it is. You have to make your own bed and some of the mattresses have weird stains on them.

I enjoyed staying in a private bedroom here. A bathroom/shower was always available when I needed one. I appreciated the friendliness of the staff and the art in the hallways. Super convenient location, especially if you are attending something at the convention center. Great budget choice of accommodations.
