Hostels are an extremely popular option for solo travelers because they’re great places to meet new people and usually don’t cost a fortune. Finding cheap accommodation in San Francisco isn’t easy, but you can book a dorm bed for around $30 a night in these three popular hotels.

Found Hotel

In addition to being one of the cheapest hostels in the city, Found comes with the best location you could possibly ask for. It’s situated only a couple of minutes away from Union Square and its common spaces are a great place to meet fellow travelers.

HI San Francisco Hostel

The HI Hostel chain has locations around the world, including several in San Francisco. The Fisherman’s Wharf location comes with the lowest price tag, but you should consider staying at the Downtown location if you want to be closer to the heart of the city.
