It's located in Fort Mason, which is on the north edge of the city, next to the bay. It's a little ways from the middle of downtown (10-15 by bus), but it's a 5-10 minute walk to the Fisherman's Wharf and the piers. A big advantage of the location if you have a car is that it's the only hostel in the city that offers free parking. At any other hostel in the city you would need to either pay for an expensive parking garage or park out in the avenues and take a bus back to your hostel.
It's a large HI hostel. The rooms are various sizes, so the number of people staying in your dorm room will vary depending on which room you get. As with most large HI hostels, people keep to themselves a little more than at smaller hostels, so you may or may not meet a lot of social people. There are several common areas, including a large sitting area upstairs with couches and internet computers (charging a fee). Downstairs is a very large dining area and kitchen. By the reception the walls are covered in information about the bay area and it's a great place to get information about the city. There may also be a volunteer to answer questions at the information table in the mornings.
