Claustrophobes, beware: the large communal lounge of this well-located North Beach youth hostel is nice, but the skylight to the outside is closed and the air is stuffy. You can bring your own food, but there's no bar or restaurant, which doesn't make for a very lively atmosphere. You can, however, play billiards or in the sauna, whose cleanliness is as questionable as that of the kitchen. On the whole, the facilities are ageing, and the rooms are poorly soundproofed (both dormitories and private rooms), especially near the showers, which are always busy because there aren't enough of them. We can do better in hostels.

A charming hostel in a great location. Great for singles, couples, friends and business if you’re the type to prefer a cheap, cozy, community oriented spot over a sterile expensive luxury hotel. At the edge of China Town and a short walk to the pier and situated alongside famous local businesses like Tony’s pizza, the Beatnik museum and City Lights bookstore. Wash your own dishes, make friends with your neighbors, use the public transit, and have a real human adventure in San Francisco!

A great place to stay and a great location. Very close to Chinatown, Little Italy, and multiple bus lines as well as Muni Metro. The place is well maintained and clean. Free breakfast is a great plus. The only downsides are that some rooms can be cramped and the bathrooms sometimes have a weird smell (nothing unbearable though). I would totally stay here again- great value for the money!

This hostel was amazing! It had a great breakfast option to cook your own eggs and make oatmeal and coffee. It was very spacious and had a lot of cool events though not many people attended.

I spent 4 nights at this place last week and had a great time during my stay. The free breakfasts are good, the staff is very friendly, the place is clean, and I always found the bathrooms to be clean as well. The quality of your stay will largely depend on the people you share the room with, but overall, everyone is polite. I recommend bringing earplugs as the bars can be noisy on weekends. Additionally, the location is excellent, making it an ideal spot to explore SF without spending too much money. I would go back and highly recommend the place.
