Me and my girlfriend went with this hostel because of its excellent location and it had private rooms with private bathrooms. I can't comment on how well the shared rooms were but if you're looking for a cheap (compared to the downtown hotels) private option that is clean, you can't go wrong. The bathroom looked newly renovated and clean and... More

I loved this hostel. The people who worked there were so accommodating and friendly. I met some great people and loved the location. The room my friend and I had was one with a bunk bed, some lockers, a window, and a sink. I was not expecting it to be so nice. My favorite hostel I have stayed in so... More

My wife and I stayed here in April. We had a private room with shared bath and shower. This is only $10 more than if two people were to book their own dorm beds. It is a wonderful budget place to stay. It is a old building and being right downtown it can be noisy. They do offer free ear... More

This is a good budget option for downtown, but don't think you're getting anything special. We didn't take part in any of the activities, but they seemed popular and well organised. The staff - Becky was wonderful and helpful and even when oddities walked in off the street to cause a bit of a ruckus she was always calm and... More

Great location and excellent price for our room. It is the basics and clean! That was what we were looking for on a low budget trip we took to San Francisco recently. The staff was friendly. They have a large kitchen area with storage so you can make your meals. The movie theater has great seating. The lounge was cozy.... More

I think the best thing about the hostel was all the activities offered. We did a free walking tour to chinatown/north beach which was exellent! The shared areas of the hostel were also quite good. However, we stayed in a private room and it could have been nicer. It was impossible to sleep without good earplugs and it was way... More

The location is great. A couple blocks south and you end up in a pretty sketchy neighbourhood, but there's nothing sketchy about this location. You are one block from Union Square, a popular meeting spot and with lots of high-end shopping. The hostel is also part of a cluster of hotels, so the streets are naturally safe. There are some...

A nice hostel, on a very nice location: right near Union Square. Excellent shopping and sight seeing nearby. The trams and busses on Market Street are easily within reach as well. The room was clean and decent. The bathrooms were fine. Seems like the management thinks of the environment as well. (e.g. the water you use to wash your hands... More

This hostel, couldn't be any more central at 5 min walk from Union square. I Stayed in a 4 person dorm, The rooms have recently been renovated to quite a high standard and the only negative about the hostel is that there is still some of this work going on. There is free wifi included. The Hostel is near to... More
