I spent my summer travelling around many cities in America and stayed in many hostels. This was not one of the better ones. It was cheap, my 2 sisters and I secured a private room with an ensuite for a couple of nights during our visit to San Francisco. The area was convenient not too far from the BART station,... More

I must complain about the terrible service. The two guys at the counter were simply rude and acted as though we owed them a living. I was very disgusted by their attitude towards customers. Once, I came to the counter and suddenly the phone rang and the guy picked up the phone and talked for 5 minutes while I just... More

Stayed there for 4 days. Prepare for a hike up to the hostel, as the whole of San Francisco is very hilly. The staff who attended to us during check in was pretty rude but the one on night shift was really friendly. There's free map provided, cosy lounge area, free breakfast (but it's only coffee and pancakes which you... More

The worst hostel ever! They are making a huge effort to be the worst hostel in SF! Geez, at the first sight, they basically steal my money! Yeah, you've not read wrong, they had charged me 20 bucks more to cover the "hostelworld" tax!! they didn't say anything when you book on line, they simply will charge you when you... More

The breakfast includes only pancakes and coffee. You have to make the pancakes on your own, which is very annoying, because there are only two pans that you can use and all other guests also want to have pancakes. So, you have to stand in line and wait until it is your turn and you can have pancakes. After 2... More

This hostel is very basic, the furnishings is very old and a bit dirty.. what can i say? that the location is nice.. breakfast was basic.. but it's free! the hostel bot great, but not terrible... the staff were kindly!

So I had read a few kind of moderate to not so pleasant things about the Amsterdam. However I do typically take places with those kind of reviews with a grain of salt. People can be pretty hard to please, I suppose. I came in, and I was pretty happy with the modest decor. It didn't smell like B.O, or... More

Not much to say here really. The room was pretty dirty and the hostel itself smelt like a mixture of urine and cleaning detergent. The breakfast was decent and provided us with a good start to the day. The bedroom was comfortable, albeit dirty. The ensuite bathroom was much better than I thought it would be. The location of the... More

Amsterdam hostel is in a good location - but that is the only positive. We paid $32 for 3 week nights in a dorm room. The first night myself and my friend were split into two rooms due to overbooking. The second night we were not allowed into our room until 2.30p having had to check out at 10am! Prices... More
