HI San Francisco Fisherman's Wharf Hostel

Good

Exceptional

Minimum security prison

Liked: Nothing
Disliked: It’s a giant hostel with too many rules. Prison-style shared bathrooms with minimal privacy, miles away from the rooms. People also get chased out of the bathroom when it’s cleaning time. Very noisy. Not everyone who stays there is a tourist or visitor, some are clearly homeless.

Very nice worth it

Liked: Good location can walk to many popular spots
Disliked: Shower spots should have proper door not just shower curtain

Very good

awefull

Liked: The only good things about this hostel are the very large kitchen and its great location.
Disliked: I stayed in a room with someone who seemed to be homeless and extremelly angry at us (other girls in the room). This person scared all of us — she were mumbling in her bed about wanting to kill French people!On top of that, I got bitten by insects on my feet.There are no individual power outlets in the rooms, and the only one available wasn’t even working.There are no curtains, and strange noises can be heard at night, possibly coming from outside.The mattress was extremely soft and uncomfortable, and again — insect bites on my feet.There is only one shower for the entire floor, which is absolutely not enough.The staff is not welcoming and doesn’t smile.Laundry is only available in the evening, which is very inconvenient.The worst part: the hostel is filled with people who appear to be or actually are homeless and possibly under the influence of drugs.

Exceptional

Liked: Friendly staff and you couldn't ask for a better location. I didnt realize how close it was to the bridge and Alcatraz

Bad

Liked: The location
Disliked: Everything ; it’s not clean, there is many crazy people there, you need to do your own bed, you can hear everything from everyone in this shelter. Looks like the jail.
