I loved the cozy vibe of the place. The lounge area had guitars and a piano to play, which was super fun. Also, the yard with a swing was such a nice touch! Talking with other travelers over homemade pancakes was a highlight.

Felt completely relaxed, no complaints whatsoever.

The welcoming atmosphere made for a pleasant stay, with clean rooms and a charming communal area featuring unique decor. Strong coffee paired nicely with make-your-own pancakes each morning. However, the shared bathroom setup proved inadequate for the number of guests, causing inconvenience during peak hours. Additionally, the lack of thorough cleanliness in the bedding raised concerns about hygiene.

A Unique Stay with Room for Improvement

During my two-night stay, the vibrant atmosphere created by fellow travelers made my experience memorable. However, luggage storage after check-out needs improvement. Breakfast included basic pancake mix, lacking flavor. For better dining, consider local cafes nearby. Enjoy the social vibe but seek outside options for meals.

Charming Stay for Budget Travelers

I had a delightful stay in a 6-bed mixed dormitory. The friendly staff made sure everything was clean, and I loved starting my day with the delicious pancake breakfast. Great atmosphere to meet travelers. Just remember to plan your day as the hostel is closed from 10 am to 4:30 pm!

Had a great time with friends! We explored nearby hiking trails and enjoyed some live music nights. The staff was friendly and welcoming. There’s a good communal vibe, making it easy to meet others. Just a heads up, shared facilities can get busy, so be prepared for that.

One downside was that the toilet facilities were a bit cramped for the number of guests, especially in the mornings.

I loved the sourdough pancakes and the cozy vibe! The communal kitchen was a great way to connect with fellow travelers. Definitely coming back!

Cozy hostel, clean dormitory, with a welcoming atmosphere that made it easy to meet other travelers while enjoying the free breakfast of tasty pancakes and taking advantage of the shared kitchen for some late-night snacks as well as the convenient location near public transportation for exploring nearby sites.

The staff was friendly but not especially helpful.

convenient spot near parks and delicious cafes

The hostel is in a great area, just a few steps from Sally Loo's Wholesome Cafe where I enjoyed delicious pancakes, and it's also within walking distance of the stunning San Luis Obispo Museum of Art, making it perfect for city strolls and scenic views.

The atmosphere felt very welcoming with friendly staff and a cozy lounge area. One downside was the cramped bathroom facilities during busy mornings. Free pancakes in the kitchen were a great bonus.

I loved the homemade sourdough pancakes and the warm, inviting atmosphere. Staying here was like being among friends, and I appreciated the ability to cook my own meals.

This place suits me perfectly! Free wi-fi, shared kitchen, and laundry make my stay easy. The staff were super helpful during my first visit, helping me exchange money. I can't wait to come back next year!
