As a person who frequently stayed at hostels during my twenties, I was prepared to encounter what one might call an apocalypse, aka large groups of young adults speaking loudly, consuming alcohol, and partying. To my astonishment, this establishment was notably tranquil, and the majority of the guests were older adults exhibiting very respectful behavior. I acknowledge that this may be attributed to the time of year during which I visited, or merely a stroke of luck; however, I believe it is still worth highlighting. The room was well-maintained and reasonably priced within its bracket (I booked a private room/bunker bed). The overall property also maintained a clean appearance. Another pleasant surprise was the availability of beach towels for guests, along with shared supplies such as sunscreen, coolers, hats, and other beach-day amenities. The location of this hostel is exceptional! There is a grocery store literally across the street, and the entire block is populated with shops, liquor stores, and restaurants. All of this is within a five-minute walk to the beach and a twenty-minute walk to the Sunset View location. Should I return to the San Diego area, I will undoubtedly choose to stay here again. As a bonus tip, the coffee shop located immediately next to the hostel, Brew Wave Coffee, offers delightful coffee beverages and is staffed by the most friendly and helpful individuals!

Everything here is great, and the sink in the room is really convenient. Most of the staff are friendly, happy, and helpful—except for an older cleaning lady. She never smiles and clearly doesn’t seem to like her job. Every day, when she cleans the room, she only wipes the sink and takes out the trash but never mops the floor. In contrast, a younger cleaning lady did a much better job—she cleaned thoroughly, covering every inch of the floor, and had good manners. Unlike the older cleaner, she made guests feel welcome. The older one, however, gave off the opposite vibe. Sometimes, even when I was still in my room, she would ask, “Are you leaving?” On the day I was actually checking out after a 10-day stay, I had already returned my key and just needed about 30 minutes to pack my luggage. However, she insisted that I move all my things immediately because she suddenly needed to mop the floor—something she had never bothered to do before. It was ridiculous. To make matters worse, she even threatened that I would have to pay extra if I didn’t comply. She acted as if she were the manager or owner of the hostel.

Extremely friendly, attentive, and supportive staff who enforced hostel rules. I was super impressed with a tall slim male staff, he is simply the best in customer service! Breakfast was great and having all day coffee and tea mins blowing. The outdoor common area exceptional hangout for meet and greet. The kitchen nice and loved the multiple spacious refrigerators are so appreciated Bathrooms spacious and clean. Bed are comfortable with the lights, so classy. The hostel has so many points of interest: books, instruments, free food and item section, tv with movies, you are allowed to drink and smoke are a few. Love the announcement in the speaker of activities and heads up reminders..:

I am 55 years old and my partner is 60. We usually don't chose a hostel to stay during out travels. I was very pleased with the professionalism this place is run. Loved the display of art and the supply of all sorts of equipment to use/rent. This includes surf boards, wet suits. I saw skate boards, bicycles, etc.. The house provides for everything and if something is missing you can just cross the street. There is a convenient store with healthy foot options. The location is the best, walk distance to the beach, shopping, eating and partying. Street parking was easy. I will certainly be back.

I have stayed at Samesun OB about 10-12 times over the past 8 years. Usually for 1-3 nights. I like all the staff. Brandon is an especially good manager and good man. Fernanda and Yolanda are always at it cleaning away and are nice people to say hello to when I stop by. The other managers do a good job of keeping a solid presence at the front desk and are often doing other staff chores. It is a good team overall. Guests are usually respectful and happy to be there. Rarely there are issues with guests be disrespectful or the like. breakfasts too add to the high rating
