This place is exactly as described. Hostels are more homely than traditional bed and breakfasts, so keep that in mind. Street parking in front of the unit is hazardous as busses and vehicle fly up the street. Multiple cars have been struck by hit and run vehicles (including mine) so park at your own risk. The BART station is a nice 30 min walk and the same bus that races up the street goes there as well if you want to catch it.
