Constantly noise from hallway and neighbors units
Loved my stay! They have free parking good location, curtain on the bunks and cute atmosphere. Only downside is as with anywhere in San fran cars get broken into a lot. A guy who was staying there had his window busted and stuff stolen. Park up top of there is room. Not the hostels fault just beware and don’t leave anything in your car.
The staff was helpful regardless of what the other reviews said. (Maybe I just got lucky)
Very walkable and good place to run if you like running. Walking distance to the wharf. Rooms were spacious (I stayed in a 6 female dorm) had a beautiful balcony. Would recommend staying here (felt safe as a solo traveler and met some cool people).
