    Nice place, we arrived and were given an upgrade, very nice one too! This is a hotel, there may be dorm rooms, but it is a hotel. Clan, nice, safe, but did not see one person. If you want a quiet stay this place is great, if you want to meet people this not the place for you. I was fine with a...

    It's good location but you have to walk to another hotel to checkin that's weird! And I booked a 4 bed room, they offered me a 6-bed room. The reason is those 4-bed rooms already booked.

    The only bad thing is that you have to check in at the Nob Hill Hotel, a couple of blocks over. The room was fantastic, really clean, own fridge and serviced every day. there is also a kitchen room in 101 that they don't tell you about but saved us a bit of money. Definitely would stay there again

    Nice Hostel, bedrooms clean, towels and blankets provided, bathroom was cleaned everzyday, so were bedrooms, check in was kind of hard though, as one has to go to this other hostel (two bloks away, but quite a walk with a heavy bag as it is uphill), staff at check in was really unfriendly on the... more

    My top 2 criterias are security and cleanliness. The good thing: -there is room cleaning every single day. -TV in room The not too good : -I think security is entirely depending on the customers responsibility and the keycards as there is no reception (it is in another location), but the... more

    Most of the reviews complain about the bathrooms, we had no trouble with this. There are 5 on the first floor, all clean, if often wet from previous showers. There is also a washer and drier near room 114 for $1.75/$1.50 which was very efficient with our big load of washing! You aren't told at... more

    More like sharing a hotel room with strangers- new towels and soaps/shampoos everyday and they made the beds. No lounge or common area for meeting people.

    This is not a hostel. This is a hotel room where 3 bunk beds have been added. There is no common room, and the reception is in the hotel. In saying that, it is very clean, nice and a good location. Just don't expect a hostel athmosphere!

    The hostel is very clean, reaaaaaalllyyy nice beds, but there's no common room. There however is a kitchen, but they don't tell you about that when you check in, and you need a separate key to get in it. Encore is part of the Nob Hill Hotel, so whenever you want to ask something, you have to go... more

    Remind you if you have to check in, you should go to Nob Hill Hotel to check in first, finished then you can go to Encore Express Hostel.

    Value for money is pretty good actually. I'd definately recommend this place, it's really close to Union square and there's plenty of bus routes near that can take you all over San Francisco. The rooms are clean and comfy, I'd do it again if I came back!

    Hostel was really comfortable and clean - no kitchen which made eating quite expensive but there was a fridge in the room which was quite handy! No common room so didn't meet as many other people as in previous hostels but the location made up for it.
