Orange Village Hostel Reviews

The hostel is not well maintained. The carpeting throughout was stained and spotted. The furniture was a mixed bag, some relatively new, others pieces old and tired, decidedly not matched. The four-bed dorm room was OK, there was hot water for a morning shower. The kitchen was small for the number of guests, but the waffle maker at breakfast was a nice touch. The juice, however, was sugar water. OK to sleep cheap, nothing more.

Good hostel for these money.

The hostel was good for the price. Although the place would benefit from putting on some more activities so that guests can integrate more easily and this may also improve the atmosphere. Also having the sinks in the room instead on in the bathrooms and toilets was a bit odd. In the rooms is fine but maybe put some in the bathrooms too.

The hostel is at a great location and for the price everything was very nice in general. It was clean and I felt safe as a woman traveling alone. Staffs are friendly and the breakfast was delicious which was a good add to the stay. I'd recommend this place to others :)

The location is AMAZING. It is half way between a hostel and a hotel, which is perfect for what we wanted. Thanks!

Orange Village was the best hostel I have stayed in EVER! It was so clean, the rooms were large with several facilities (fridge, microwave, TV) and the staff were friendly. The area it is in isn't ideal but it is a good central base especially if you're travelling from the airport (it's just around the corner from a BART station that takes you straight to the airport.)

The only thing I was not happy about was the locker! We do have our own lockers in our room, but the locker cannot fit my standard lock! Another guest in my room had exactly the same problem.

A very good hostel for a very good price!

The free breakfast was good, there were waffles, orange juice and also you can use the kitchen to cook! the location is awesome, pretty close to union square! The room was clean but it was very dark! and the free internet is so helpful.

Good place near Market Street! Wifi in the rooms is good (most of the time) and the staff was helpful!

Le personnel est excellent, toujours présent (24h/24), souriant, agréable et prévenant. Les chambres privatives sont correctes, propres mais la rue est bruyante. L'emplacement est parfait, bien centré, près des shopping, des restaurants et des bus, métros et câble car de toutes la ville.

After staying here for three nights we where covered with BEDBUG bites! We confronted the staff and the manager refused to see us and compensate us. After arguing with them!! we ended up getting a few quarters to spend our whole last day washing all our clothes and gear because we didn´t want to bring any off the bugs with us from this place. Also it´s located near a very bad area so it doesn´t feel safe at all. I would STRONGLY recommend staying away from this place and go to a better place!

I guess you pay for what you get. Tiny rooms which were extremely hot and uncomfortable, desk staff were not very friendly. Although the location is good in terms of distance to san frans main attractions, it is in a pretty shady area of downtown, we saw a number of deals going down right in front of the hostel. Would not feel comfortable staying there again.

Floor 2 and 3 desperately need new carpets. The things in the room were great, the kitchen facilities were good and the lounge comfortable. Staff were lovely. Unfortunate bedbugs but that's not the hostels fault its the fault its the fault of whoever was there before. Wonderfully helpful about the situation. Overall really great likeable place.

The Hostel's staff was very sympathetic and the location is very convenient: near to the main BART stop, bus stop, subway stop and also near to the San Francisco's downtown as Union Square, Market Street, etc.

It was very hot here all the time so very glad we weren't there in summer. The kitchen was too tiny for the number of people there so it was very crowded and awkward at breakfast. It was however clean and a nice enough place to stay. Free internet was a bonus.

An ok hostel - clean and safe. The price is high but then you are in central san francisco so that is to be expected. The staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast was decent.

There were bedbugs in our room. After the first night, our arms were covered with red dots of the bites. Although the staff was kind, after negotiation they only offered us to refund the last night that we reserved but not stayed because we didn't want to spend another night with bedbugs. We expected a bit more compensation for all the trouble they brought over us (we had to wash and dry tumble our clothes to be sure we would not bring them with us back home).

Bed is uncomfortable and rooms are very very hot, at least when I stayed during new year`s eve. But the price is good, the location is excellent, there`s laundry room at affordable price and the breakfast is good. Good value for the price, buy next time I would consider spending a bit more for a better bed and a cooler room!

Great security (have to get buzzed in through the gate 24 hours/day). Clean. Friendly front desk. Good central location.
