This hostel is very well equiped. We stayed for 3 nights over the Independence Day weekend for US$35 per person in a mixed dorm. What we liked was all the tourist information given downstairs with detailed instructions on how to get there on public transport - they even printed it out on little pieces of paper so that you can... more

Great hostel, the best one of the "USA Hostels". Very nice rooms, restrooms and bathrooms. Excelent amenities. The Con: a bit noisy, not recomended for people who wants to sleep all night long. Only gets calm after 2 am more

We really enjoyed our stay at the USA Hostel in San Francisco, so much so we wished we had reserved it for the duration of our trip! When we asked to extend our stay, we learned they were booked up, and we understand why. We had a private room with shared bath at the Hostel and the room was as... more

We were probably the oldest people staying there, but that did not stop people from interacting with... more

This hostel is near to Union Square, and walking distance from the BART. My room was light and clean, shared with 4 others, and we had a bathroom. The building is a massive Victorian one - the bathroom had a massive old bath in it, and old basin - personally, I loved it! There were large lockers in the room,... more

This hostel is right in the centre of the town near all the transport links. The staff are really lovely and helpful. The rooms are pretty standard for hostels- the usual bunk beds and lockers for your possessions with power points in them. They are cleaned everyday. The free breakfast is make your own pancakes, there are also oats and... more

We stayed here in Dec 2007. Great Budget option in an expensive city. We had a private room and it was clean and well maintained. The hostel was very busy when we were there and the kitchen was a mess but probably from so much traffic. We went on 'Dylans city tour' and it was a great day. Very entertaining.... more
