Unexpectedly Enjoyed the Social Vibes and Friendly Drinks

Couldn't have been better. I had never stayed in a hostel before, but I wanted an affordable bed in the heart of SF for the first night of a trip that would later take me elsewhere in the Bay Area. Everything was great - the facilities were clean and functional, and the staff couldn't have been friendlier. The tone set by the staff created a very chill, collegial vibe among the other guests. I had really just wanted a place to stay, but ended up socializing and sharing a few drinks with other travelers from around the country and world. I would recommend this place to anyone, and unless I'm crashing with friends this will be my home next time I'm in SF!
