When I and my co-worker had made it over to USA Hostels – San Francisco we saw that they were currently going through some renovations, which they should have done by now and will continue to encourage an even better time. Tired with our bags and after waiting approx. 15 minutes to check in, we were both delighted to have our own private beds and rooms and of course take a load of our shoulders. We took some time for ourselves and then when we did our walk around, we noticed that the USA Hostels has something for you to do each and every night. The word boring isn't in the vocabulary here, but you've got to be able to create your own experiences...you see they set the table and you've got to decide what you think you'd like to indulge in. These next few days will be Ed's last days with me before going back to our London, UK head office and he's still a bit jet lagged so i was able to take advantage of him in foosball but he made it back up on the pool table. Across the street you'll find grocery stores for your daily conveniences, restaurants and a great burger joint. Deciding to cut in early, since he had an early flight and knowing that i enjoy cooking i decided to make sure we both start the next day off right with some free pancakes that the hostels provides, but i had to add a bit of a twist and add bananas to our batter. Ummm, ohhhh! so good if i must say and Ed never reported any bowel problems so it must of done the job J That night I saw a young lady go by, I decided to engage in some conversation and introduce her to a group of us that were just hanging on the stool that night. We all had such a good time talking that we've become IF. USA Hostels works with a shuttle service so after breakfast, Ed was able to make his way to the airport swiftly and timely which is very important.
