#19 Ranked Hostel in the World
Inside Report
First,
let's be honest… this hostel sucks, but location makes many a shoddy
hostel worth visiting and this one is a must see. The hostel is
really just a place to sleep, but it's right on the beach in the
ultimate lifestyle town, San Diego, California.
Located
in Pacific Beach, a vibrant beachside community with a small town
feel and big city attractions, the hostel sits right in the epicenter
of Southern California's youth culture. It's an ideal backpacker
town as everyone in the town is between 20 and 30 years old. None
of the locals seem to work - it's like they are all on an eternal
vacation.
The
waves are good for surfing, the beach is good for people watching,
and the bars in the local area go off every night of the week. The
hostel is also a great jump off point for dipping into Mexico, which
is only a 30 minute drive.
