I would definitely recommend this place to friends. It is a hostel- some of the other guests definitely missed this when making a reservation. The only complaint I would have is that it's right on a major street and you can hear everything outside.

I would recommend this hotel to everyone who want to stay for shorter period of time. I was there for conference for 2 days in march and i loved the hotel and the place. It was in the heart of downtown and close to convention center. Lots of restaurants and shopping complexes near by. Bathroom was shared but was extremely clean.The room service was  very fast. Though I need to change my room due to power failure ,they gave me other good room. Heater doesn't work in the rooms so felt somewhat chilli in the night. However you can always ask for portable heaters from the front desk. Overall it was a nice stay for me.

I was going to a conference at the San Diego Conf. Ctr. (~2 miles away from 500 West Hotel), and I couldn't spend much money. For the location and ease of travel, this hotel can't be beat. My only reservations is that I didn't know it was run like a hostel. But it didn't matter. I just wasn't prepared for a small room (8' x 10') and a private communal  bathroom/shower about 30 feet outside my room (I felt like I was back in my college dorm). The hotel is in a building that's about 100 years old but it has some old-fashioned charm to it. Hospitality staff works well and do a good job keeping the room clean. Wireless internet has to be re-activated every 24 hours (not really a big deal). Overall, I'd stay there again.

Great price, and large clean lockable shower/sink/toilet stalls met my basic expectations for the great price. Free internet and friendly staff. Good security. Wonderful cafe / coffee shop in bottom of large, old hotel building in fine location near the uber- expensive Westin. I'm a university prof with only basic expectations at this price and was  pleased with cleanliness and lobby, etc, Room could not possibly be more basic, however ( eg 11-inch TV, plastic desk chair, no AC. A bit noisy, with some kind of all night fan noise from outside...

We stayed here for a night out in downtown San Diego. We were mostly attracted to the low price of the rooms. The only available rooms were single rooms with a twin bed (with or without a TV), so a friend and myself booked one for each of us. As the title of this review says, the 500 falls somewhere in between a hotel and a hostel. The rooms themselves  were the size of a child's bedroom, with a twin bed, small desk and small free standing closet in each. Despite the bare bones approach, I found the room to be clean and the shared bathrooms to also be generally clean as well. For a cheap night in San Diego close to the Gaslamp district, this will do the trick. However, if you are looking for the comfort, amenities and ambiance of a regular hotel, you may want to look into more expensive options.

Loved the retro look of the lobby. Staff were very nice. The room was minimalist -- but hey, it used to be a YMCA back in the day! The room and the bathrooms were very clean, although the carpeting in the bedroom was worn and stained. Couldn't have done better for the price and convenience.

Was globally satisfied consider the price of the room. Location very convenient in downtown close to train station. Might feel a bit noisy depending on the location of the room.

... it's a hostel, college dorm setting, but GREAT value because of how clean it is, how centrally located it is, and free Wi-Fi which I later found out people who were paying $250/nite at local chain hotels did not have internet access for free. this was my 2nd time there because of the value, comfort, and cleanliness.
