This place was very dirty and not welcoming at all. I would not recommend this hostel to anyone planning on visiting SF. The mission and castro districts were very cool though. You can find a much nicer hostel in this part of the city for a comparable, if not better, price.

It's worth the money , it would be nice if they replace the carpets of the halls.

Its (one of) the cheapest hostels in San Francisco but both the location and the rooms are excellent! We had a double and it was pretty big and had a fridge and a microwave inside.

I went to this hotel which is falling into pieces. First, they charged me the whole amount and when I complain they told me to get in touch with Hostelworld, to make them call and they will gave me the money back. I contacted customer service and they took almost a complete MONTH just to let me know that the issue had past and there was nothing they can do... for thier inefficiency I lost $72. I stayed there a month. The place is a nightmare... bed bugs and everything
