I would choose it again.

Liked: Santa Barbara hostel was the first hostel on my way up from Los Angeles to San Francisco and I gotta say it was my favourite one! I only spent my night, but I could tell that it's very travelers-friendly as there were daily activities and a whatsapp group that was helpful. I also had a good rest there, the beds were quite spacious and comfortable.

Perfect spot for a night...

Liked: Great location for everything we wanted to do. It felt safe, and the beds were SO comfy! The bathrooms were clean and the showers were absolutely lovely, loved that they had a private toilet for added privacy. They have lots of lockers and good access to the surrounding area, everything was about a 5-15 minute walk which was perfectI'd definitely stay here again so I can experience more of what they have to offer!

Exceptional
