Pleasantly Surprised
My first ever hostel experience: I had a private room with an en suite, which was surprisingly latge, comfortable, clean, and accommodating of my remote work. I would recommend the private accommodation. Hostels are often ridiculed so at least give this one a chance.

The hostel was smelly and dirty. The guy in my room who introduced himself as a volunteer there, tried to harass me when he came back from somewhere apparently drunk. I also found somebody’s dirty underwear in my bed when I came back to my room the next day and my sheet was taken off and thrown to the side.

It was a good location and the staff was nice. But the temperature was too warm in the room, and there was no way to remedy that situation. Even just a ceiling fan would have been a HUGE improvement. Oh, and no washcloths. 😵‍💫

It was ok
You do get what you pay for, and that isn’t a terrible thing. There was nice shampoo and conditioner and shower gel in the bathroom but no hand soap at the sink. You have to make your own bed and they tell you to leave the fleece blanket on the bed and bring the linen down to a dirty laundry basket, but this made me concerned that they don’t wash the fleece blanket they give you. I did not visit the common areas, but because they weren’t integrated to the flow of the rooms/lobby. I’m frequently in SF but it won’t be my first choice to stay here again. Also a decent hike uphill from the muni train.

The staff there are very unorganized. The bunks and lockers in the room are not numbered do you know which is a top bunk or bottom. Its a free for all. The was a ady who clearly had mental health issuses. She would have conversations with herself and would start yelling. She kept everyone in the room up. They are not concerned about customer satisfaction.
