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.

Awesome experience! We stayed 2 nights and had a great time. 5 stars all the way

I think it is quite a nice place for staying a few nights. It is right at the junction of Chinatown and Little italy, so many food options near by and many public attractions like Coit Tower, Filbert Steps, The Embarcadero at the walking distance. The nearest Subway station is Montgomery and Yellow and red Line form the San Franciso airport can be taken to reach here. The property offers free Breakfast every morning, which is relatively decent, considering it is free and yes bagels are part of breakfast. I loved the common area, equipped with cool collections, music instruments and games. Leaving luggage before and after the stay is possible. Sharing room with 7 other people may not sound charming but beds are comfortable and clean.

What a great decision to stay at Green Tortoise! I was in SF for 6 days as a solo traveler & this hostel was perfect in every sense! Free breakfast, great neighborhood, fun events, super cool common area & fantastic crowd. I forged some amazing friendships while staying here & I’d love to be back one day! Shoutout to Brad, Jonah, Seamus, Carrie, Joe & the other staff for a pleasant experience! Cheers!

The platonic ideal of hostels; haven't seen another like this anywhere on this side of the Atlantic

Hostel is great value in a good neighborhood in SF. The building is relatively old and the rooms get the job done. Could be a little bit cleaner overall, but not much to complain about.
