Reasonable price, outstanding location, friendly staffs. I hope to visit again soon.
Too loud to get sleep when Fri. and Sat., there is a club across the street.

Very great location for my first time in San Francisco. The bed is clean, while the surrounding is quiet and suitable for a short trip. Will definitely visit again!

The hostel is nicely located in the city with chinatown and the italian neighbourhood around the corner. The atmoshere is really good and staff is super friendly!
We had private double rooms with shared bathroom and kitchen area in the annex building around the corner from the main building, which was nice for us as 2 families with teenage kids.

All the bathrooms are private, that was very comfortable.
Breakfast was fine, basic but good.
It was hot in my room, the sheets and towels smelled a little bad.

Very well located. The breakfast is decent for a hostel and the dining room is beautiful. I had the window bed, which was ok for me because I'm short but it may not be suit for everyone. In any case, great place and I got to wake up with the view to the Golden Gate bridge. They have a good deposit for leaving your stuff before check in or after check out.
Nothing to complain

This is probably the best hostel I have stayed in ! The common room is amazing, the breakfast nice, and the people (staff and those staying) were a good time.The sauna and the various events they put on in the evening were fun bonuses as well.

The staff was fantastic, and the facilities were better than expected. The rooms were comfortable for bunk beds and well kept up. The accommodations and extra events that the hotel offers made the experience even more fun. I would highly recommend it and I can't wait to go back.
The bathrooms tend to be more on the wet side.

Standard Room with Shared Bathroom
This private, bright colored room provides free wifi, reading lights and free film rentals. shared bathrooms are available in the hallway.
please note: some of our queen private rooms are located in our annex building on bartol street, just 1.5 blocks from the main green tortoise hostel. while it's a short walk, the annex offers a quieter, more laid-back experience—perfect if you're looking to escape the late-night noise from the nightclub near our main building. the annex has its own kitchen, cheaper laundry facilities, and a more private, airbnb-style feel. you'll still have 24/7 access to everything at the main building, including our front desk, lounge, and communal events. plus, on the third floor of the annex building, there is a patio that has an incredible view of the bay and the bay bridge!
