Lucky D's hostel is amazing. The staff is super friendly, everything is nice, clean and cozy. I would totally recommend any traveller to stay here if you are in San diego! It's close to Gaslamp and it has plenty of cool bars and restaurants close.
“Amazing stay” — May 10, 2022

The place was wonderful, the staff are super helpful and always there 24hrs to assist. Facilities are numerous an ATM, ironing equipment, ear plugs, reading room, laundry facilities. These guys have thought of almost everything that you will need. Plus I was lucky to have a free meal on one of the days courtesy of a guy called ‘Osteen’ I think. There is a lot of socializing too, good place to meet people. Thanks Leo for the warm welcome.

Lucky D's is like a family. The atmosphere is probably one of the best I have ever experienced in a hostel. The people are kind, the location is excellent, and the staff are amazing. Love it here!!
