Nice, friendly staff. 3 blocks away from BART (the metro). No kitchen though and EXTREMELY loud music every weekend.

The bars on the main and top floor i found to be expensive. The view from the roof is specatular. The surrounding neighborhood is a little scary both at night and durring the day. I also found that getting to and from the hostel could be difficult and took cabs most of the time.

They say, you can check in 24 h, but if you arrive in the morning, after a night bus, they won't let you check in, you have to wait til 3pm. And if you ask, you are allowed to sit somewhere, but you have to ask first. The breakfast is not much. It is one pastery and a cofe or tea. For more you have to pay. A nice common room and kitchen are missing. (well, for partys are 2 floors, but nothing for a quite evening) If you like to extend you have to extend, you have to book it online.

The hostel is located in a gorgeous neighborhood, however, that is where the beauty stops. The security is nil, and the staff is only helpful if you are giving them money, too much business, and not enough human character. Cheap as hell if you're on a budget.

Attached night club is pretty loud, so guests should be prepared. Room wasn't well cleaned (old pizza under the bed), but overall the facility was quite good.
