Staying here for two nights was an absolute delight. The location is perfect—quiet street but just a short walk from the Presidio, making morning strolls absolutely peaceful and refreshing. We booked a lovely top-floor room with great natural light and a comfortable layout. Our hostess, Kathleen, was warm, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome. Each morning, she served a delicious and thoughtfully prepared breakfast that added to the cozy charm of the stay. After checking out, we realized we’d left behind a pair of earbuds. I reached out to Kathleen, and although they couldn’t find it right away, she had her team check thoroughly. Later, we got a message saying they’d found it in the laundry—and even shipped it back to us! That kind of care and attention to detail goes way beyond what you’d expect. It’s not just about comfort or cleanliness; it’s about hospitality with heart. I can’t recommend this place highly enough.

The property itself is a great stay overall—located right in downtown San Francisco, just steps from MUNI transit lines and surrounded by safe, walkable neighborhoods. I stayed nearly three weeks and really enjoyed the space, kitchen amenities, and cozy lounge area. It feels more like a home away from home than a typical hotel. That said, there's no on-site staff, so any issues aren’t addressed immediately. For example, late one evening around 7 PM, water started dripping from above into my closet. I reported it via text, and while they did call back to assist, the situation ended up requiring me to clean up the mess myself. They offered a room change, but with only two nights left, relocating wasn’t practical. So I had to manage it on my own. If you're looking for quick service, daily housekeeping, or immediate support, this might not be the best fit. But if you value independence, quiet comfort, and a central location without the usual hotel noise, this place delivers. It’s perfect for travelers who prefer self-sufficiency and don’t mind handling small hiccups personally.

Staying at Podshare San Francisco Marina was a fantastic experience. The modern design of the sleeping pods creates a cozy, private atmosphere—perfect for a good night's rest. I was impressed by how clean and well-maintained everything was, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from public transit and downtown attractions. It’s an ideal choice if you’re looking for a budget-friendly yet comfortable stay in San Francisco. Would definitely recommend and come back again.

Staying at Calista Organic Hotel was an absolutely delightful experience! The location is perfect—just a short walk from downtown San Francisco, with easy access to public transit and plenty of local cafes, boutiques, and hidden gems nearby. The hotel’s design embraces a natural, eco-friendly vibe with organic materials and calming tones throughout—so peaceful and refreshing. My room was spotless, cozy, and well-appointed, with excellent soundproofing that made for a truly restful night's sleep. The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely went the extra mile—especially appreciated the complimentary local organic snacks they offered. It’s clear this place values sustainability and guest comfort. If you’re looking for a serene yet centrally located stay in SF, this is a must-try. I’ll definitely be back!

Staying at this hostel in San Francisco was a great experience overall. The location is super convenient—just a short walk from the BART and close to downtown, making it easy to explore the city. I was really happy with the value for money—especially considering the price, you get a clean, comfortable bed in a well-maintained space. The common areas are spacious and actually feel welcoming, with a fully equipped kitchen where I could cook my own meals—huge plus for budget travelers. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with tips or recommendations. One thing to note: check-out time is only between 9–10 AM, so if you're leaving early, make sure to plan ahead—late check-out will result in losing your $20 cash deposit, which must be paid in cash. That said, it’s a small trade-off for such a solid stay. Definitely recommend for solo travelers or groups looking for a no-frills but cozy base in the heart of SF.

This backpacker hostel is a hidden gem in San Francisco—small but full of charm and great energy. Even though it's compact, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, making it easy to connect with fellow travelers. The owner is super friendly and organizes daily activities like local tours, game nights, and group dinners, so you never feel alone on your trip. Rooms are clean, well-maintained, and the shared spaces are always tidy—definitely above average for a hostel. It’s perfectly located near public transit, just a short ride from major attractions like Fisherman’s Wharf and Golden Gate Bridge. Bonus: there’s a fantastic Hunan restaurant right downstairs—authentic flavors and great value. Just mention the hostel name when ordering, and you’ll get a discount! If you’re looking for an affordable, social, and well-run stay in SF, this place is absolutely worth booking. I’d definitely come back.

Staying at HI San Francisco Fisherman's Wharf Hostel was an absolute highlight of my trip! Located right on a hilltop, the hostel offers a peaceful retreat with stunning views of the city just a short walk down to Fort Mason Park. The nearby Safeway is only about 8 minutes away—perfect for grabbing essentials without having to go far. I especially loved the Equator Coffee shop just around the corner; great coffee and a cozy vibe. My bunk bed was surprisingly comfortable, and the hostel provided clean towels and sheets—no extra hassle. The staff were friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist. If I ever return to this area, I’d definitely book here again—great location, excellent amenities, and unbeatable value. Plus, Fisherman’s Wharf is just a 15–20 minute walk downhill, making it easy to explore all the sights. There are plenty of charging stations in the lobby, and near the Franco café area, there’s a dedicated desk space with multiple outlets—ideal for travelers working or staying connected.

At 66, this was my first time staying at a hostel—and I’m amazed by how welcoming everyone was and how clean and comfortable the rooms are. We booked an en-suite room with crisp white towels, fresh bedding on a wonderfully comfy bed, and daily housekeeping made sure everything stayed spotless. Located just around the corner from Union Square, it’s perfectly positioned for exploring downtown San Francisco—walking distance to shops, restaurants, and all major transit options. The location is unbeatable, and the value for money is outstanding. Huge thanks to the friendly staff at check-in—they made our arrival smooth and stress-free.

Staying at The Bartlett Hotel and Guesthouse was a fantastic experience overall. The room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and thoughtfully decorated—perfect for a relaxing getaway. I especially appreciated the convenient location; it's just a short walk from downtown San Francisco, with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The only minor inconvenience was that check-in and package pickup both take place at a sister property, which caused a bit of confusion when receiving mail or deliveries. However, this is a small trade-off considering how well-maintained and charming the hotel itself is. With excellent service, comfort, and location, it’s definitely a top choice for travelers looking for a cozy yet stylish stay in San Francisco.

I was able to check in last minute, which was a lifesaver since I didn’t book ahead. The check-in time was set for after 10 AM, but I woke up early and was ready to go—no big deal. The hostel is super convenient, just a short walk from major attractions and transit hubs. Clean rooms, friendly staff, and great vibes overall. Definitely worth staying at if you're visiting San Francisco on a tight schedule.

Ram's Hotel is an absolute gem in San Francisco! I was pleasantly surprised by how clean, quiet, and well-located it is—just steps away from major attractions and great local spots. I’ll be honest, I was a bit nervous about the neighborhood at first, but honestly, every big city has its challenges. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful throughout my stay—always smiling, always ready to assist. Parking isn’t available, but that’s not a problem if you’re using rideshares or public transit (which works really well here). Just keep your wits about you, as you would in any urban area—whether it’s Seattle, LA, or even Europe. The rooms are spotless, with excellent cleanliness standards. One tip: if you tend to get chilly at night, turn on the heater or just ask for extra blankets—the team will gladly help. Overall, this place offers fantastic value, comfort, and peace of mind. I’d stay here again in a heartbeat.

We booked a 5-night stay at El Capitan Hotel, but we couldn’t even make it through one night after seeing our room. The fridge was rotten, the bedding was filthy and falling apart, and we found bed bugs—so bad that we ended up sleeping fully dressed just to avoid contact. The bathroom was in total unsanitary condition; honestly, showering in a sewer would’ve felt cleaner. We’re not exaggerating—we truly meant it. If you’re unsure where to sleep, even camping outside would be better than staying here. Avoid this place at all costs. This is not a hotel for anyone seeking comfort or hygiene. Save yourself the misery.
