kyle, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff is very friendly, especially Nick, who always goes above and beyond to fulfill any requests we have. The bathrooms and common areas are clean and well-maintained. Nick consistently ensures everything is in order and that house rules are followed. While some guests can be very rude to him, he always handles the situation in a calm and professional manner. His dedication and respectful approach make a big difference in the overall experience.

10/10 Exceptional

I had an absolutely amazing experience at The European Hostel! From the moment I arrived, I was warmly greeted by the friendly and professional staff who went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. The front desk team is knowledgeable, courteous, and genuinely cares about guests' comfort—Nikunj especially made the check-in smooth and gave great local tips! The hostel is clean, secure, and well-maintained. The common areas are vibrant and great for meeting travelers from around the world. I loved relaxing on the rooftop terrace with beautiful views of the city! What really stood out was the excellent service—whether I needed extra towels, help with my itinerary, or just a good conversation, the staff was always ready with a smile. The rooms are cozy and affordable, making it one of the best value stays in San Francisco. If you're looking for a budget-friendly, centrally located, and welcoming place to stay, I highly recommend The European Hostel. I’ll definitely be back!
Nick, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

Smelled awful and the kitchen and bathrooms were filthy. The staff were not courteous, and we heard the owner bad-mouth other guests in the shared kitchen. You can't beat the price though, and the room itself was fine. If this is all that's affordable for you, you'll be alright.
Mia, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The kitchen was very clean. And they always clean the bathroom.
Luther, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great location and great price. It was very quiet at night and we slept well

4/10 Fair

As stated earlier, I saw a mouse scurry across the lounge area while I was preparing a meal in the adjacent kitchen. I have a phobia with mice so it greatly startled me. Also, the owner was initially abrasive on the phone, not a good 1st impression.
