California Dreams may call itself a hostel, but it's more like a hotel in many ways. Free breakfast, free wifi, pool, willing to hold luggage and help get it to the room, key card locks, and ADA compliant. They even have gender-neutral restrooms on each floor. Only thing that differentiates it is the shared bathroom. The staff were great, especially Sam! We'd highly recommend to anyone.

Staying in a hostel was on my bucket list and at 55, I finally checked it off. This is a really nice place. I stayed here twice this week. Breakfast was even really fresh... The outdoor area cannot be beat! I don't think I'll ever stay anywhere else when I visit my son in San Diego.

Staff was great. Restaurants are close and very good. Bathrooms needed some tending to. Either leave cleaning supplies in bathrooms so we can clean after use or staff clean more often.

I am a kixury hotel girl, so when I saw the hostel option which was my very first time, I said this was too good to be true but I need this solo down to earth trip. Omg wait!! The communication from staff checking in on me due to my late flight immediately made things best. The staff, the location walkable to everything and not far from the beach. Clean and the breakfast. Everything was so well thought out and it felt like a retreat. I loved every second of my stay. I highly recommend this place. I had time to reflect on alot of things and appreciate life more.
