A fantastic hostel! Incredible staff, great people, very clean, and great services. They serve coffee and some food in the morning, offer boards and beach toys for rental, and have some very nice, comfortable common spaces. The rooms are very clean, beds are very comfortable, and are set up nicely to give you a private, cozy space even though you are in a room with 1-5 other people! This was my first time staying at a hostel and it was truly an excellent experience.

Property vibe and inside the hostel was great! Nice staff etc. There were a lot of homeless nearby so as a young solo and inexperienced traveller, it felt a little unsafe, and there are not many restaurants etc that are easy to access close by.

Fabulous place to stay
Probably the nicest, cleanest hostel I have stayed in anywhere in the world. Staff were super friendly great vibe to the place and perfectly situated close to beach, shops and restaurants. Only downside was on street parking but always managed to find a spot but you may have to drive a couple of laps to get close to the hostel.

This is the BEST hostel I’ve ever stayed in, by far. The service is better than a 5-star hotel. Shout out to Koa, Eric and Brandon who all went above and beyond to make my stay that much more awesome. I will be returning every year to stay at Samesun, San Diego! See ya in 2025☮️❤️😁
