The location is super convenient to the airport as advertised. Also a very short walk to public transportation/bus stop that will take you downtown to San Francisco (about 40 minutes in transit). The convenience of early luggage dropoff and late pickup is also much appreciated! I dropped off my luggage early and came back at 3 pm to check in per when I was told the room would be ready- my only complaint is that the room was not ready/cleaned until 4 pm. Not a big deal as I sat and waited in the kitchen area until the cleaning ladies came and told me I could go to my room. The place is clean except for what you can imagine in a shared bathroom situation (I unfortunately had some disgusting flatmates during my stay), but that’s nothing to be held against the host- just be prepared if you’ve never stayed in a hostel! While the desk is a nice touch, I think it would be more practical to have a small mirror in the room as there were none and it makes getting ready hard, especially when you are sharing bathrooms with several other people! Also thin walls so during my stay I had a couple having sex *very* loudly and lots of noise. Communication with the host was speedy, though I will say it is a bit offputting to be sent not one but 2 messages after checkout asking to be left a 5 star review. Overall this place is good for a short stay and if you plan to be out exploring San Francisco from morning till night like I was.
