San Francisco Pocket Guide

Great city, but overrun with homelessness.

I enjoy going to San Francisco, and I usually stay downtown near Union Square. You can usually use public transportation to get just about anywhere. There are lots of restaurants in the area. What is disturbing is the amount of homeless people wondering the streets, even occupying a whole block in some places. I live in Los Angeles and we definitely have homeless people, but SF seems to have an overabundance which is very sad.

Insider Tip:One of my favorite places downtown is The Old Siam Restaurant - very good food and excellent prices. Be aware of your surroundings. Try not to go to the Tenderloin area. Definitely go to the San Francisco Carnaval which is held every Memorial Day Weekend in the Mission District. Be aware of SF's weather. It is usually very cool, if not cold and windy.

Great place to stay!

You wanna go to San Frans! Be sure to go on the Alcatraz tour it is very educational, see Twin Peak it has an amazing view of San frans city. Go to haights and Ashbury it has cool shops and a lot of vintage stores where you can find awesome things! They have amazing food! Great public transportation!

Amazing San Fran

San Francisco is simply beautiful! Aside from all the nasty hills you need to walk up, I highly recommend doing as much walking and public transport as possible as this is the easiest way to experience the amazingess of San Fran. Bike the Golden Gate Bridge to Sausalito and you won't be sorry! Check out Alcatraz and Pier 39 for a fun day of entertainment and cool education. Shop until your heart is content! Catch a ball game at AT&T Stadium! The world is your oyster here, enjoy it!

Like Walkable Community in San Francisco

I like the city although the police alert rings all the time, and temporature drop quickly after sun set. The hostle locationi is right in the city center near to the metro station, convenietly to go anywhere. I will go to the city again this September arouond. Wish you will enjoy as well.

Insider Tip:Take more clothes even in the summer cause it will be very cold without sun in San Francisco.

Suits the cliche.

True melting pot. Sprinkle evenly some asian, european, mexican and african american. Add one final asian dash and there you have it. Sunny, mild, pretty and laid-back city to drift around.

Insider Tip:Cycle round the coast. Try to get to Sausalito across the bridge for a drink.
