Summary: 🌟 A Wonderful Stay at The European Hostel, San Francisco! 🌟
From check-in to check-out, everything about my stay at The European Hostel was simply amazing. The place was spotless — clean rooms, fresh linens, and tidy common spaces that made me feel right at home. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, perfect for travelers who appreciate both comfort and convenience.
But what truly made my stay unforgettable was the incredible staff, especially Nick at the front desk. Nick is the heart of this hostel — always greeting guests with a genuine smile and an attitude full of positivity. He goes above and beyond to help everyone, whether it’s sharing local tips, ensuring a smooth check-in, or simply checking in to make sure guests are happy and comfortable. His kindness and professionalism truly stand out and make this hostel feel more like a community than just a place to stay.
The amenities were great too — fast Wi-Fi, a well-equipped kitchen, secure entry, and a rooftop area that gives a cool city vibe. The location couldn’t be better, just a short walk from public transportation, shops, and downtown attractions.
If you’re visiting San Francisco and want a clean, safe, and friendly place with an amazing team, The European Hostel is the perfect choice.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you, Nick and the entire team, for making my stay so memorable!

Summary: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Stay – Special Thanks to Nick at The European Hostel
I had an amazing experience at The European Hostel in San Francisco, and I want to give a special mention to Nick at the front desk. From the moment I arrived, Nick greeted me with genuine warmth and professionalism. He doesn’t just do his job—he goes above and beyond to make every guest feel comfortable, safe, and welcome.
Nick is always available to help with anything—local tips, quick check-ins even late night, special arrangements, or just a friendly conversation after a long travel day. His positive energy truly sets the tone for the entire hostel. You can feel that he cares about people, not just reservations, and that makes a huge difference.
The hostel has a great community vibe, and Nick plays a big role in that. He manages everything smoothly and with a smile, even when things get busy. It’s rare to find someone who combines professional efficiency with kindness and personal attention, but Nick does exactly that.
If you’re staying in San Francisco and want a budget-friendly place with a human touch and staff who actually care, I highly recommend this hostel—especially because of the outstanding service provided by Nick. His hospitality made my stay memorable.

Summary: Great place not gonna lie and I’ve learned my lesson on reading reviews but the that runa this place even tho he did exactly what the reviews say he did let me stay and was somewhat of understanding. Like I said not a bad place to stay. It was kept clean and the surrounding area even tho it has its troubles not a terrible area just make sure you are not alone and/or don’t bother anyone.

Summary: This youth hostel has a low rating but I've stayed more than 7 nights without any issues. Its centrally located and I always have a clean bed to sleep in. The manager is super nice and knows the area well. Always have some cash as he does charge a refundable cash deposit.

Summary: The European Hostile is okay. It's average. A Meh if maybe. It's quiet and I got some good sleep. However the bathrooms need a lot of work. If one shower doesn't have hot water then you have to go into another shower that has hot water, problems with the light staying on, and a overflowing waste basket.
No this place isn't big and fancy but it's a hole in wall place where it's quiet as soon as you get inside and place to get some sleep. It's worth its salt.

Summary: I had a very good experience at The European Hostel and would like to appreciate both the front desk and the day and night cleaning staff. They work hard every day to keep the place as clean and comfortable as possible for all guests.
I’ve seen some reviews saying the hostel is “smelly” or “dirty.” Yes, sometimes you might notice this—but it’s important to understand why. This is an economical shared hostel, and you’re sharing a room with 4 or 6 other people. Many guests are travelers or people working from out of state, and sometimes they don’t have the time to do laundry or organize their belongings until their days off. The front desk manager reminds them multiple times to keep things tidy, but he can’t force them if they truly don’t have the time—he respects their situation.
At the end of the day, you’re paying around $25 per night, so you can’t expect 5-star hotel facilities. What you can expect is a safe, budget-friendly place to stay, with a management team that works hard to accommodate everyone and make the best of a shared living environment.
If you’re looking for a low-cost option in San Francisco with a team that genuinely cares for its guests, The European Hostel is a solid choice.

Summary: My stay at The European Hostel was an excellent experience, and I want to especially recognize the amazing staff and front desk service. The facilities are well-maintained, the beds are comfortable, and the common areas are welcoming with a great atmosphere.
One thing that really stood out to me was seeing the front desk manager, Nick, personally taking care of the property. If he notices something doesn’t look clean or comfortable, he doesn’t wait for someone else—he will sweep, mop, and tidy up the rooms and kitchen himself. His goal is always to make sure every guest feels good energy and a positive vibe during their stay.
Nick is always ready to assist guests with a smile, no matter how busy things get. Unfortunately, I also witnessed times when some guests disrespected him or even threatened him, simply because they didn’t want to follow the house rules. These are rules that keep a shared space clean, safe, and enjoyable for everyone. Sometimes people also leave bad reviews without realizing that they booked a shared facility with specific policies they agreed to before making a reservation.
It’s important to understand how much effort and hard work Nick puts in every single day. He treats the hostel like his own home and works tirelessly to keep it safe and comfortable for all. At the end of the day, he’s also human—he has feelings, and it’s natural for him to feel hurt when his dedication isn’t respected.
I truly appreciate the staff here, and I believe The Europea
