Hostels σε California, United States

This was my second time staying in the dormitory here! The location is excellent, with both the subway and bus stops within a 5-minute walk. I stayed in a female-only quad room. The room has bunk beds (each with a pillow, blanket, sheets, one light, and an outlet), air conditioning, a window that opens for ventilation (as there was a slight lingering smell), and a personal locker (you need to bring your own lock). There's also a private changing area with a mirror, light, and curtain, so you can change clothes in the room. A trash can is provided. There are several hooks to hang luggage, but no hangers. For the bottom bunk, taller individuals might find it a bit low, so it might be worth requesting an upper bunk. Amenities like towels and hairdryers can be borrowed from the front desk. Breakfast includes two types of bagels, sliced bread, oranges, jam, cream cheese, oatmeal (I think?), coffee, hot water, tea bags, and mineral water. Some people were cooking with ingredients they bought in the kitchen! There were also two large refrigerators where you could store items by writing your name on them. The shower rooms, toilets, and a changing area with mirrors and curtains are all located in one spot but are separated. The shower rooms have shelves outside for luggage, but they're a bit narrow, and there are no hooks or luggage racks inside the individual stalls, which can be a bit inconvenient. Shampoo and body soap are provided. (Many people were changing in the adjacent changing room.) In the mornings, depending on the time, there were often many people doing their makeup, but I didn't have to wait and everyone shared the space well. One issue I had was on just one night when I tried to use the shower, all four stalls only had cold water, with no explanation or sign that they were broken. It was freezing, which was terrible. I recommend testing if the hot water works at the sink before changing when you use the shower room! Also, the hotel entrance is narrow, and there's no elevator, so it's immediately steep stairs. Carrying large suitcases to the rooms can be very challenging. When checking out, you need to remove the pillow and the two sheets you used from your bed and return them to the small window at the front desk. Please also return your card key to the front desk. If you have any other questions, the front desk staff are helpful and should be able to assist you. I hope this information is useful.

The location is fantastic, with direct access to the D line. K-town also offers plenty of great food and shopping. It's a converted detached building, and the front yard is beautifully decorated. Inside, there's a lot of vintage decor, making it feel like it used to be an office, complete with a piano. I booked the room hoping for a tall arched window but it didn't have one. However, the overall facilities are clean, and the bed outlets and lighting are well-thought-out and convenient. The front desk staff are very welcoming.

HI San Francisco Downtown Hostel is a fantastic budget-friendly option for travelers looking to stay in the heart of the city. The location is unbeatable, just a short walk from Union Square, public transit, and major attractions like Chinatown and the Ferry Building. The hostel is clean, secure, and well-maintained, with both dormitory and private room options. Guests often praise the friendly staff, organized activities, and free or low-cost breakfast. The communal kitchen and lounge areas encourage social interaction, making it ideal for solo travelers. Overall, it’s a lively, comfortable, and convenient place to stay in San Francisco.

It was incredibly beautiful and spotless — hard to believe it’s a hostel. The location is perfect, the staff are kind, and the free drinks and salads were a huge help both financially and health‑wise. It was a perfect place to stay. I highly recommend it.

It's alright. There are many bars outside the hostel, and the streets are lively at night! I was startled by drunk people walking around. People who don't like nightlife might not enjoy this environment. The accommodations are generally okay… the common areas are quite cozy. Overall, I'm satisfied.

The location is perfect for Venice Beach and short walk from Santa Monica. Bike and scooter rental on the doors step as well as bars restaurants and coffee shops. The staff here are super helpful and the rooms are clean. Great shared space to chill over looking the beach. Tea and coffee facilities 24hr with use of kitchen. Bagels and porridge oats available for breakfast. Shower rooms and toilets spotless with great water pressure.

The hotel is conveniently situated in the heart of downtown San Diego, surrounded by numerous bars and restaurants. A nearby bus provides easy access to the airport. The property is well-maintained and offers pleasant amenities, including a pool table and arcade machines. However, one drawback is also its location—it’s right in the lively party area, which can lead to noise at night. If you’re sensitive to noise, you might want to consider an alternative hotel.

very good hotel and location Very very clean!!! No bathroom in the shared rooms but many outside the rooms divided in men, women and any gender , with 3 showers and 2 bathrooms each ! Quite hostel! It also has a pool table! Not classic hostel where you meet and talk with everybody , people there kinda all do they own things! But recommended if you’re just looking for a place to stay !

Had a great stay in San Francisco! 1. The location is excellent, right in the Marina District, a traditional upscale neighborhood of San Francisco. The area feels safe, and I rarely saw homeless people or anything concerning. It's also very close to popular attractions like Fisherman's Wharf, the Golden Gate Bridge, and Lombard Street. 2. The hostel also provides breakfast, which is great value for money. I especially liked the juice at breakfast. 3. The rooms are quite tidy and clean, and there's a common area for socializing, which is perfect for meeting other travelers and chatting.

It's decent, and a simple breakfast is provided. The hotel is centrally located, making it very convenient for exploring the city. The only downside is that being so close to the street, it can get quite noisy at night.
