Samesun is a great budget option! The staff were nice, very strict on the rules, but that was ok because it made it feel like a safe and controlled space. Everything was super clean, and it is very close to the beach. I would definitely stay again.

This hostel is very nice and clean. They have a spacious common area and it is located next to the beach. They have a farmer’s market every Wednesday on their street and it was one of the best markets I have ever been. All the staff are very friendly and helpful! Def will come back to stay here whenever I’m in San Diego.

This was my first experience with a hostel and it was very enjoyable staying here. Having the ability to cook my own food is great. The location is great, so close to the beach. A target and CVS is in close walking distance. The transit system is quite effective too. The front desk staff is great and full of great recommendations.

LOVE the centralized location of this place on one of the main strips in Ocean Beach! Had no reason to leave the area as everything was in walking distance with plenty of spots for food, drinks and the beach close down the street! Definitely interested in staying at this place in the future!
