It would be nice to have individual lockers, big enough to keep necessary items in the room itself. Really nice party hall, great music system etc. Enjoyed it.

Great location, staff was good, the free beer was a good thing despite the bad quality. Don't expect much from the breakfast. San Francisco is my favorite city now, loved it.

It's a nice hostel but it gets rather pricy in May through August. The bar/club underground is definitely a nice idea, though. my dorm room was stinky and I encourage them to improve on that, but not the worst I experienced. Also, there I saw a girl who complained for almost an hour about discrepancy in booking condition and felt she was cheated. I hope they straightened that out.

Great staff! My room smelled when I went in. I wish there were cost racks or a closet in the room. I wish they provided towels at the front desk.

They did a great job of keeping things clean, the staff was patient and caring (alongside the volume of people in and out of the hostel - no small feat).

24 hour pancakes not available for 7 hours every day while the kitchen is closed. Free beer & parties are awesome. Bathrooms are kept very clean.

The Hostel is in a great, fantastic location! It has a lot of rooms, they are quite small, but as my friend and I were alone in a four beds room it was ok. The carpets are not too clean but they are ok. The restrooms are fine, only that you dont have to wash your hands in them. The showers are in a different part. The 5th floor showers are new and really ok. in the mornings you can have free pancakes! they are great! and at night you have a downstairs floor were you can have free beer and some music. It was empty the three nights I stay there but I suppose it can be great if it is full, like a disco!
