Good and bad= average
There’s no rules about smoking in the building or 20 feet away from entrance. Noisy ay night. Bathrooms don’t get cleaned thoroughly. Had to ask for toilet paper twice.
My favorite place to stay in the city, a nice place to stay in a comparatively good neighborhood with a good staff who keep the place clean and orderly. Highly recommend as a safe central location, up enough steep hills to keep the nonsense down. I suggest approaching from above on Bush Street rather than climbing up from Geary.

Good but a lot can be improved
the rooms are ok. People smoke right by windows and smoke comes inside. No eco friendly. Blankets are not washed every time someone leaves, they just fold them and put them back on bed. Bathromms are just wiped lightly. Laundry time is limited for guests. Mostly the cleaning crew use it most of the day. The kitchen opens late after cleaning most of the time. It's good for the price you pay, conveniently located and in nice area.
The rooms were clean and relatively spacious. I stayed in a four bed, woman only dorm and the bathroom space was shared amongst us. It was pretty clean. The bunks could be improved with some privacy shades. The kitchen space is quiet small so you are competing for space at peak use times. The general area is pretty unsafe though, I was taking public transport at the start until some person tried to mug me in broad daylight on a busy street. I had to get rideshare from that point.
The location is perfect and the receptionists are friendly.

$20 cash deposit for your key, even if you have prepaid. They accepted my drivers license instead but this was the first hotel/hostel that I've stayed at that required that and added stress for something trivial. Upstairs neighbor the first night made a lot of noise in the middle of the night and made it difficult to sleep. No breakfast even though I thought that was included. The private room I had did not have a TV, microwave, refrigerator, or fan. I likely will not stay here again over other hotels in the Union Square area.
Arrived after midnight due to a late flight, front desk staff was very helpful checking me in as well as informing me of the available amenities. Full bunk room with several other already asleep fairly quite night other than some noisy late night traffic. Clean bed and clean bathroom to shower off in the morning. Quick and easy checkout. Would stay here again.
