Great location on the edge of China town and little Italy. Walk to Coit tower, and the Embarcadero. City Lights bookshop next corner and terrific bar Vesuvio. Staff delightful and felt very safe, car parking available.
Top hostel ! Great service, great bedding, great location
It was nice very big room. Simple but super spacious. Clean. Great location few minutes walking to the fisherman’s wharf and Starbucks and cvs. Only few homeless around. Very safe inside. So overall very good hotel
"I booked this hotel because I wanted something budget-friendly. This hotel is ideal for backpackers or those with modest expectations, especially due to its proximity to Fishermen's Wharf. The selected room did not have a private bathroom, but the shared facilities were very close and clean. There's no air conditioning, but there is a ceiling fan. The room had a window facing the courtyard, which was quiet. The staff are cool and friendly, always ready to help. Overall, it was okay.
Great location, lots of daily activities and recommendations for things to do in the area. Something they do that I haven't seen any other hostel do is the bunk beds are attached to the walls. That means they don't move around or make a noise which is a big positive if you have a restless sleeper in the bed above or below you. Overall it is a quiet hostel during the night
This place is one of the best hostels I've ever stayed at. The staff were so helpful and friendly. The location of the hostel is perfect and it’s in a nice and safe place. I would definitely be back to this place in the future.
This is literally the best hostel I have stayed at in over 4 months of travelling around the world. Its free amenities, fair prices for a central San Francisco area location and immaculately clean facilities make it the best budget open in San Fran.
