Overall it was a good experience. Met good people. Staff is friendly. Breakfast was a bonus, waffles are great, but there are other healthier choices. If you are not gluten free, you gotta try the waffles at least once. My room was off the main street O’Farrell and it can be noisy at late night for a short period.

The hostel itself is top notch. Staff is excellent. Cleaning staff always on scene. Kitchen is great. Check in and check out is a breeze. Problem is the area is loaded with homeless and zombies. If you need to stay in that part of the city you won’t get any better. If not, find somewhere with a better area.

I love to stay here when I’m in the bay for work. The staff is amazing and friendly. The housekeeping staff is great, they were prompt in fixing a broken light. Orange Village is my SF home!

I took the BART from the airport to the hostel, arriving at about 8am, after a 14-hour flight. The staff organised for an early check in at noon. They were friendly and helpful. Received good advice on how to get to a Giant's game and book tickets - my ticket was $19 and the guy next to me paid $120 - all due to OVH staff. Great breakfast and good company. Well done.

Very lackluster

Give you one flat sheet and one tiny hand towel. I did ask for a second sheet and got one that had blood stains on it. Kitchen is way too cramped to accommodate the breakfast. Floors are disintegrating. Tiniest bathroom in the room. No soap, no shampoo.

The people were nice and they served breakfast daily. The area outside the hotel has a fair amount of stragglers is what it seemed like inside, things are good. It's a older building, but they do a good job of cleaning And keeping the facilities in good shape. Breakfast consists of toasts, waffles, coffee, yogurt, and a few choices of cereal. I picked the waffles and the eggs. Overall, this is a perfect place if you want to spend a good amount of time outside, with pretty decent accommodations. But I wouldn't say you would just be camping out in the room. You could, but why would you.

It’s not the hostels fault but the protest happening at the hotel beside was protesting 24/7 all night for every night I was there. I went to sleep and woke up and went to sleep to the sound of banging. The breakfast was good though

Hostel is well located, walking distance to most of the main attractions in downtown; but it’s extremely noisy. Unfortunately, my experience was not completely positive. Maybe if you room is indoors and not face the street you can catch up some sleep.

Staff was very friendly and the location was convenient for transit. It was hot at night so we had the windows open, which made for a noisy night. It's in a bit rougher part of the city but I was a single female traveller and didn't have any problems. I was uncomfortable with the breakfast set-up due to COVID but I saw it was quite popular. On our floor there were 2 bathroom closets (toilet with built-in sink) and 2 bathrooms that had showers.

Located in a somewhat sketchy part of the city, Orange Village Hostel offers surprisingly convenient access to dining and shops within walking distance. This proximity compensates for the neighborhood's character. Service: Staff friendliness varies greatly. Some are welcoming and helpful, while others appear indifferent. Accommodation: Rooms are clean but showing their age. The beds are unfortunately uncomfortable, leading to some post-stay back pain. Noise levels at night can be significant, reminiscent of a bustling GTA game (IYKYK) Amenities: I skipped breakfast here and opted for a nearby diner, so I can't comment on its quality. I also didn't participate in any of their weekly events. Overall: If budget is your primary concern, Orange Village Hostel is an option. However, be prepared for a mixed bag of experiences and consider splurging a bit more for a more comfortable stay next time.

Even tho I only stayed one night due an issue with an another hostel, I had 0 issue with the staff and room, tho I wished it had an A/C. That would be my 1 outta 2 complaints. Other than that great place and breakfast availability. Hands down would book again. My 2nd complaint would the area, only at night you have to be careful but that’s it no other complaint.
