Are yoiu kidding, $70 for a private room with bath in this part of SF? Room was recently remodeled, modern and clean. Bed was very good. Bathroom and shower excellent. Location is top totch. It was actually pretty quiet in our room which had a window on the courtyard. Would stay there again. Perfect if you are seeing a show at the Masonic.
People complained about the front desk staff but I did not find them rude at all. They were trying to do their job, he may have been training a new guy, and their system is a little inefficient. Not sure why they want to see everyone's ID. But that and the $20 keycard deposit seem a small price to pay for the rest of the plusses.

Good location for our needs, room was as expected, and got several good nights sleep. Cooking facilities were good, and has fridges available for us as well
Arrived late evenimg. Simple check-in, though thankfully, our Uber driver had previously warned us not to turn right out of the hostel at night as leads to the homeless/drug area of SF. Hostel staff didn't mention this to us.

The staff were very pleasant. You're pretty deep into the city but you feel safe. The hostel isn't too far from the nearest BART stop so the walk up the steep SF terrain was only mildly challenging with all my luggage in hand. Good value for the money
The place, like most hostels, can be a little loud. The bedding I was given was not the cleanest and there was evidence of some extensive water damage in the shower. The staff, while pleasant and helpful, were also a little opaque at first having told me I needed $20 cash as a security deposit only to then tell me I could simply leave my ID with them instead.

The best location, near Union Square. Really close to restaurats, bars and facilities in general.
The property is a bit old.

I think its location is great. They have a kitchen which is open most of the day and offer free coffee which is amazing. The toilets were clean and the beds are comfortable. I really appreciate I could ask for new bedsheets and towels whenever I needed it. Staff was friendly :)
I didn't like that there was trash accumulated behind the bunkbeds. The place looked clean in general but it can be better. Also, the toilet paper holder fell on the floor in most bathrooms I used which was a bit uncomfortable. The very last day I stayed I saw a tiny mouse running through the corridor. I thought it was funny at first but then I came to my senses and now I feel like they could put more emphasis in that aspect.

Just about on the right side of Tenderloin. Perfect location for getting just about anywhere in the city. Lots of shops/markets/bars within vicinity. Dormitories are larger than average, plenty of space for suitcases etc. Bring a lock for the storage drawers under the beds. Clean and modern. Wi-Fi worked well. There were quite a few extra bathrooms/showers too. Also a laundry room. Didn’t seem to be a party hostel - most of the guests I met were aged 30 plus. For the price, it’s a bargain. Would stay again.
My only gripe was the kitchen closing between 10pm and 8am. As an early riser I had to keep pestering staff to let me have early access since I’m usually up by about 5 or 6am. I think this is more to do with preventing noise, maybe they’ve had some troublesome guests in the past. The kitchen also needs a restock of cups and cutlery. But apart from this I can’t fault the place.

The stay in Amsterdam is pleasent and better than expectation. The facilities seem to be new (or maybe well maintained) and clean. The hostel is with fully functioned kitchen. Budget limited travelers can cook themselves. The room is good for its price. The room we stayed this time is also for physical disabled and is bigger than others (I guess). Beds are comfortable.
Cleaness of the shared bed sheets is a little bit in concern. The wifi connection in the room is sometimes weak, and cellphone signal also bit unstable. The location is close to the transition to the Tenderloin but still acceptable position.

Great location in terms of teams and walking distance to train/ bus stations. The dorm I stayed in had an ensuite bathroom which was cleaned everyday it seemed. Kitchen area was good with a lovely outside nook to sit in and look up at the clouds. The staff was very helpful when I was struggling to find the quarter machine for the laundry.
The personal lights by the beds were quite bright and it lit the room up at night when the rest of us tried to sleep. It got quite hot in the rooms even with windows open. Maybe putting a fan in rooms during the summer could help?

Very quick check-in, the staff were always available to help whenever I asked for directions or recommendations for places to visit. The kitchen was nice place to cook something quick or have a cup of tea o coffee when you wanted, also the patio/terrace area was really nice even at night when it was windy in the city, you couldn't feel it there bc of the walls around it. The room was what it was described, very clean and neat, remember to take a lock with you so you can use your storage box without feeling worried about the other people sharing the room with you. Lastly, it was nice that there was a room available to leave your bags the day you check-out if needed.
I can't think of many things honestly, only thing that comes to my mind is that in the bathroom there wasn't handsoap, didn't ask for it though since I had my own and my stay was quite short. Also, since the location is uphill, I would recommend other travellers to arrive by any type of car so you don't tire tourselves too much carring your luggages uphill.... if you wanna arrive walking try walking along Bush ST. and then turn left on Taylor ST. In my experience it felt less tiring that way :)
