From the Point Loma hostel, which feels tucked away in a neighborhood, you are minutes from downtown, the airport, Ocean Beach, Mission Beach, Sea World, etc. The Hostel patios, the kitchen/dining area, and the living room are inviting, always open, and spacious. Whether aiming to fly solo or mix with fellow travelers, this hostel makes it easy. More

I stayed two nights in this hostel. Overall it was good but the one complaint I would have is that the fitted sheets don't fit the mattresses. This seems like a minor thing but they keep coming off during the night which is very, very annoying. Other than that all the facilities were good and the staff were really helpful. More

Haha this place is great. I checked in with a grade A fever and cold and stayed that way for 3 out of 4 nights of my stay. However, the staff were all LOVELY - some of the friendliest and most genuine Hostel staff I have ever met. The common areas here are the real drawcard, a huge immaculate spacious... More

I stayed here for five days in February, my second visit. Definitely the best hostel I have stayed at in North America. This hostel is clean and very well organized. The kitchen is well equipped, free morning pancakes are great. Very reasonably priced communal meals most evenings. On bus line from airport, good grocery store easy walking distance, next door...

I was in a double room with my boyfriend and i really liked the hostel. almost everyone was very nice, everything clean and the kitchen and common room had everything you need. the breakfast could have more variety, since it only has pancakes. and the hostel is too noisy in the early morning. More

If you don't love staying here, well, ... The Point Loma Hostel is located right off of the 923 line from downtown San Diego. $2.25. The hostel is very chill. They have mixed and same sex dorms, plus a few singles. The staff are friendly and tolerant when it comes to hanging out for a while after checkout(10:30am). All the... More

This was my first hostelling experience and it was a very good one. I was in San Diego attending a professional engineering conference and was on a tight budget. This is a great rate for what you get. The hostel was very clean and the staff friendly. When I brought up a maintenance issue with the staff they fixed it... More

We stayed here for three nights at the end of a six-week road trip from Seattle, so needed somewhere to chill for a few days before flying to Central America. Point Loma was perfect. The hostel is very welcoming, we arrived mid-evening, but still got an enthusiastic greeting from Matt, who gave us a quick tour and showed us to... More
