I stayed here for 2 weeks in the summer of 2014 and couldn't have been happier with the place - I had been travelling for 7 months and was a bit lonely, and the people and staff here couldn't have been nicer. You can really make yourself at home and feel relaxed in the middle of the city, and have plenty of people to talk to or head out with.
The location is great, right next to chinatown and walking distance to a lot of awesome areas in SF.
You only book for 1 night, and then can extend your stay after that - you are considered a guest once you are in. It's a great system which means you are never kicked out, but people are often turned away for not booking - so make sure you get in!
Thanks Courtney, Albert & Stormy - was a great couple of weeks :)
