My Favorite Part of My Stay with PTW was getting to Hang Out at Night With the Staff and Other Guests
Online
The staff (who are pretty much indistinguishable from the travelers) are all fun, helpful young people who make sure the common room is a great place to hang out and the dorms are quiet enough to sleep. There are eight to a room, mixed gender, and you get a large locker along with your bed, and a towel. The rooms and common spaces are clean and well-maintained which I was very impressed by. The place really is located right between the financial district and chinatown, an easy walk to fisherman's wharf, city lights and other sights. My favorite part though was getting to hang out at night with the staff and other guests. Will definitely come back the next time I am in San Francisco!
