Rooms were great and location is excellent.
Puneet, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Room had everything we needed and was accessible. Hotel offers parking but limited spots on main level , additional in bottom level. Staff were extremely friendly! One downside is just the location , if you’re a light sleeper there is a lot of noise around the area but they do offer complementary ear plugs! I would definitely still stay there again!

Ben, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I’ve stayed at this place many times since 2021, and it’s become one of my favorite spots in San Francisco. Free parking in downtown SF? That’s a real luxury! The staff are super friendly, and the self-service machines and shared spaces are really convenient and well-kept. It's easy and safe to get to all the classic SF landmarks from here — perfect location! One of the things I love most in recent years is the privacy curtains for every bed — such a thoughtful upgrade that makes a big difference. I work in the travel industry myself and actually manage two hotels here in SF. As a fellow hospitality professional, I really appreciate how practical and comfortable this hostel is. Highly recommend it if you're visiting the city!

Gisela, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The staff was helpful regardless of what the other reviews said. (Maybe I just got lucky) Very walkable and good place to run if you like running. Walking distance to the wharf. Rooms were spacious (I stayed in a 6 female dorm) had a beautiful balcony. Would recommend staying here (felt safe as a solo traveler and met some cool people).
Jasmine, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Loved my stay! They have free parking good location, curtain on the bunks and cute atmosphere. Only downside is as with anywhere in San fran cars get broken into a lot. A guy who was staying there had his window busted and stuff stolen. Park up top of there is room. Not the hostels fault just beware and don’t leave anything in your car.
Kristi, 1-night trip

Toilet was clogged, I'm sure it got taken care of eventually, but didn't happen during my stay.

I enjoyed that I could park the car free of charge and explore the city on foot the next day. Nice view of GGB in the evening sun from the balkony. Kind staff. Would definetly book again if I travel by car.
