It was great staying here. Best hostel I’ve stayed at.

Joshua, United States of America

Great location near North Beach. There are separate water closets from the rooms. The building is quaint and quirky.

Alex, United States of America

Activities, food availability, Sophie, Shamus and Sj. were very helpful. One of The best I been at for hostel.

Nick, United States of America

The hostel is much cleaner than I expected. Staff are super nice. There are a lot of handy facilities that really helped me, for example a printer.

Huiqin, China

I appreciate the full kitchen and providing the eggs. And thanks for leaving out the guitars to play!

Justme, United States of America

I really enjoyed the personality of the staff and the laid back atmosphere of the whole building. There were things to do if you wanted to be social, and they left you alone of you wanted to do your own thing. Room was cute and the location was close to everything we needed.

Veronica, United States of America

Good staffs, clean dormitory, clean restroom, strong wifi, many eatings and bars around the hostel.

Hao, China

Everybody, and I cannot stress it enough, EVERYBODY is as friendly as can be. Before my stay at the Green Tortoise, I had no idea what a hostel was. Now I know this one will be my goto if I ever come back to San Francisco.

Igor, Belgium

Great hostel! Very friendly staff, huge common area and activities to meet other travelers, breakfast was great, and they have really good free dinners 3 nights per week. In general the hostel has a great vibe and you feel at home. Great location too, if you’re travelling on your own don’t think it twice, you will meet people here.

Manuel, United States of America

The rooms were nice, the bathrooms (all different!) were always clean and even had a time released air freshener. I enjoyed the noise outside- it felt like there was always life in the area. The staff was very friendly- especially loved the pigeon one of them had as a pet! The dining hall was very welcoming too. There were places to work peacefully but long tables to meet friends, as well as an easy dishwashing system. One more thing- although I didn't get to participate in any, I saw fliers for new events every day. Definitely worth a stay if you're looking for a fun environment where people are up at all hours!

There’s no air conditioning, which is alright. However, we have to open the window for fresh air, meaning that there were bugs and mosquitoes. I got bugs bites all over my arm. I have never complained about a hostel, since I know what I paid for, but this is just quite disappointing given the high rating. The stairs are also awful. They are not quite accessible, you’ll have to get up three floors of stairs and no a/c just makes it worse.
Location is not bad.

There’s no lock on the locker, so I had to bring my own or buy a new one at the front desk—in my case, buy a new one because I didn’t have a lock. I’d expect the locker to have a digital lock, which I can open with a card or a passcode.
The hostel is much cleaner than I expected. Staff are super nice. There are a lot of handy facilities that really helped me, for example a printer.

“Great location. Bathrooms are clean. Rooms could be better.”
- • Leisure trip

- • Single Bed in Female Dormitory Room with Shared Bathroom
- • Stayed 2 nights

The rooms could be better equipped with privacy for each person. These were basic wooden bunk beds (beds themselves were fine to sleep in). Each person has a lamp but turning one on would disturb all other people in the room. Also each person has a socket by their bed but the position was inconvenient and a bit dangerous in my opinion. It was right above my head on the wall. There was no shelf to put my phone on so I put it on my bed. So I had a socket right above me and a cable I had to watch out for whilst sleeping. Of course I moved when I slept and tugged the cable, the sockets aren't that secure so tugging on it immediately removed the cable and it fell in between the wall and bed. Dangerous for the lower bunk person or me. Most hostels Ive been to recently have made mini cubicles for each bed nearer to the head position. This way turning on the light would not get to the person below/above or across the room as much. Also being able to place a few items next to you ie phone without having to worry it might fall (esp on top bunk which I had). I also had the worst experience in terms of room mates (well one in particular). Coming in the middle of the night and deciding to rearrange your suitcase is not a good idea. Not sure how long it went on for but it felt like eternity just hearing sounds of plastic bags being crumpled. It's not as if that person had to leave in the morning. When I came back at 11am to check out, she was just sitting on the bed and playing on her phone (in an EMPTY room). You'd think some people would be more considerate of others. - Rant over :)
Bathrooms were clean and had shampoo, soap and conditioner included which was great. The location was great, near bars and restaurants, good place for the evening. Then it was a short walk (20 min) to the pier or downtown.
