So I’ve read through quite a few of these reviews, and it seems like there are a lot of people who book this hostel expecting it to be like a hotel. A hostel is not a hotel.
Podshare does not have curtains for the beds, and I was uncomfortable with that, but everything else was terrific.
Even though there were quite a few guests staying, I didn’t have any problems with the 2 bathrooms they had downstairs. I was able to get up around 7 and take a nice shower and dry my hair without being in anyone’s way. One of the bathrooms is located in the same room that the beds for ease of having to get up in the middle of the night to use the restroom, and the other one was located off of the common area. It was considerate and used the common area one when showering in the morning, so as not to wake anybody else up and hat’s the general vibe there is people were pretty considerate of each other.
I did see a couple people left their cubby light on when they should’ve turned it out while they weren’t there. Which curtains would’ve helped. There was community food that was left from other guests and I made breakfast home fries for everybody with what was there. Life is what you make it.
Erica was super friendly and helpful and a pleasure to sit and talk to in the morning. If you’re not ready for an organic homegrown community experience, go stay at the Hilton. This is a really easy-going experience and you have great opportunities to meet interesting people from all over the world. I found everyone there to be extremely respectful. Oh, and by the way… narry, a SINGLE bedbug.
So my walkaway review is:
I had a pleasant day with nice people, would’ve preferred to have curtain or privacy screen to block the light her mother pods stay, I didn’t have a problem with the heat, although I was a little chilly at night and could’ve used an extra blanket.
This is by far the worst hostel ever. Management is super rude and bossy with their guests, and they order them around like if they are working for them. Many fights every day. Bad vibes. Don't ruin your san Diego experience by staying there.
I stayed here for one night last August of 2023 and it was a great experience. Unfortunately my last stay here this week wasn’t so great. The kitchen and bathrooms were dirty with the trash overflowing. The sleeping area really smelled and you could tell some people had been living there a long time and had all their possessions stuffed into their living space
I can deal with stink. I’ve spent time in plenty of hostels. I just feel like it should be a short term place and not a place for people to live long term. Because then you get those quality of life issues like hoarding l, body odor and bed bugs. My last night there I woke up with four bed bug bites on my arm and hand. One on my foot as well. I’ve included pictures.
Great location but until they get rid of the bed bugs and long term residents I’m never staying there again. To me it’s a hostel, not a homeless shelter.
I enjoyed this place a lot. The staff was great and they took care of the place. There were a lot of people staying here long term which speaks to how it is taken care of. Also, it was great for me because it was close to the trolley and easy to get around SD from here.
