Where to Stay in San Francisco When You Visit (2025)

"Located in a renovated early 20th-century hotel, this fun hostel is similar to the Fisherman’s Wharf HI: it offers free breakfast, lots of organized social activities (pub crawls and walking tours), decent beds with big lockers and outlets (but no privacy curtains), fast Wi‑Fi, and a fully equipped kitchen. There are large private rooms and female-only dorms, and the property is wheelchair accessible." - Matthew Kepnes
