Had a great time at stay classy hostel! great price for what it offers. The whole building is kept really clean and the staff are easygoing. The common area offered some activities as well as seating for meals. The kitchen is pretty small, however, since guests run on their own schedule congestion is not typically an issue. The building is located only a couple blocks away from a major transportation system as well as downtown San Diego which makes staying there with no vehicle perfectly comfortable.
