ITH San Diego Beach Bungalow Surf Hostel

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 stars Highly recommended We stayed 5 days in San Diego, together with a friend, and it was truly a fantastic experience. The hostel is in an amazing location, just steps away from the beach, which already makes everything better. Breakfast with pancakes is available, there are always activities to join (even when it was raining a bit), and the overall atmosphere is incredibly warm and welcoming. What really stood out to us was the staff: there are so many people working there, and everyone is genuinely kind, friendly, and approachable. We’ve traveled to many cities, but we’ve never felt so “at home” in a hostel before. It’s also impressive to see such a large and present staff in a relatively small hostel — that makes a huge difference. We stayed in a 4-bed dorm and felt very c

Okay this place is the ABSOLUTE awesomemest!!!!! Ziggy is the chillest, his burgers are sooo yummy! Justine is beautiful IN and out the most helpful and welcoming!!! Joe is the ultimate beer pong king careful if you challenge him. He's fun! Quite the shiii talker 😜 Olivia is the cutest pupper ever!!!! Walking around and making sure we see her pretty little brown eyes! Leo is top notch when it comes to cleaning the rooms, and restroom so dont let no one tell you its dirty.||The view off the patio area is absolutely magnificent 👌 keep in mind this is party district so if youre looking for quiet all the time, this ain't it. They provide activities on the daily so youll have a blast here!

We LOVED staying here. We got a private room that was very clean and had a really comfortable bed. The people at the front desk were very nice and accommodating. The location is amazing. Way better than the hotels we were looking at. Highly highly recommend.

❗CAUTION: Only stay here if you want to have the BEST TIME OF YOUR LIFE!❗ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’m convinced this place is some kind of magical portal where strangers become family in 48 hours and you forget real life exists. Every single person there made this trip unforgettable! Shout out to Ziggy, the certified OG, for being the best manager. Somehow everywhere at once and always chill. Shout out to Diego, the best guest, for being pure good energy, hilarious, and kind. Thank you to our host Aidan for setting the whole vibe with good music, showing us shortcuts around town, and carrying our firewood! Shout out to Sergio for celebrating his birthday with us! That guy always has a smile. Huge shout out to Bailey, who I didn't get enough time with, for having a beautiful soul! And Justine, from my last

Unfortunately very dissapointing experience. First the good things: - Location can't be better, right at the beach, and for me Pacific Beach is the best place in San Diego - Staff is friendly Negative: - It is completely worn down, it's a hostel so I don't have the highest expectation, but even the bare minimum it does not reach. Doors look like they've been broken into multiple times. - The noise. I have stayed in many hostels over the years, but something like this I have never experienced. The place is extremely noisy till 3AM as a standard. There is no quiet hours, and if they exist, they are not enforced by the staff at all. It is not only music, but also screaming and shouting that is apparently accepted. One night people were banging on all the doors between 2 and 3 am. It cannot b
