Right on Pacific Beach, the Bungalow has a top location, a beach-party atmosphere and is reasonably clean, but it’s lackluster, very basic and gets crowded. Shared rooms are mixed-gender. The communal patio fronts right on the boardwalk are a great place for people-watching and beer drinking. No air-conditioning. Breakfast is free and wi-fi is included, as are free body board rentals.
Look out for 20% off same-day arrivals.
