San Juan Hostellit

Plussat: - Nice location - There are restaurants near-by - The hostel organises daily activities that I believe are free- which is pretty great! - Overall, good value for your money I guess especially after one takes into consideration the relatively high cost of accommodation is touristy San Juan, PR.

Miinukset: -Room was awfully hot. The A/C and the ceiling fan wasn't working. - Room was very cramped.

Plussat: I liked the low price and location.

Miinukset: There was no electricity when I arrived for 2 nights. Lots of mosquitoes in the room. And no AC in the room.

Plussat: The manager Ivette went out of her way to make sure everything was okay This is an amazing place very convenient to place of interest I will recommend this place to anyone

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: N/A...location poor

Miinukset: If the room was bigger,a little table hot water a small fridge a t.v it didn't have any of this things.

Miinukset: There was no air conditioning, just fans. I saw cockroaches. There was a lack of proper security. The mattresses and pillows smelt like other peoples sweat and BO. Somewhat dangerous neighborhood after dark so be careful. Stay somewhere else with AC!!!

Plussat: Safe, Clean and convenient to areas of interest.

Miinukset: Room was small and air conditioner could only be turned on for a short while.

Plussat: Travelers that I met

Miinukset: No professional staff, no communication apart from someone

Plussat: Edullinen hostellityyppinen majoitus, varatessa luvattiin ilmastointi ja ilmainen wifi, huoneessa oli ilmastointilaite mutta se ei juurikaan huonetta viilentänyt, nähtävästi sähkö tulee osittain generaattorista tms koska valot välkkyivät ja ilmastointilaite hurisi välillä kovempaa ja välillä ei ollenkaan. Kuumaa vettä on turha odottaa. Huone siisti ja viihtyisä, varaudu korvatulpilla, meluisa. Sänky mukava. Keittiö on parvekkeella toisessa kerroksessa, kahvia saa kun itse keittää, jääkaappi käytössä, astioita ja kokkailuvälineitä. Henkilökunta tosi mukavaa, saimme myös hinnasta alennusta kun kerroimme että varatessa luvattiin muuta kuin mitä saimme. Wifiä ei siis ole, nähtävästi hurrikaanien jäljiltä yhteydet vielä poikki. Maksu käteisellä, luottokorttia ei voi käyttää.

Plussat: This time we had the room in the third floor, which was better than last time in the second, like water pressure was better and no water from the ceiling.

Plussat: I think can have a good potencial but must be totally re organized. Also you can walk to the party area and many bars the beach and the artistic district so ..

Miinukset: Unfortunately I get really unlucky during this stay: staff is completely unorganized, they are all really young guys doing work away. So they don't really care . I have to wait 45 min at the door before being attended from the girl at reception who was just having a conversation with some friend. The room and the facilities (that no one showed me ) were dirty and there was no hot water at all. The electricity was totally out the second night. They provide with a generator and offer me 50% refound and told me that electricity must be back in a couple of days. I think was a good deal and I'm not a pretending person at all. But it really took longer and seems nobody really cared. Also no clean sheets so sometimes the people who were arriving haven't no sheets at all or have to used dirty one . Also stuff were stealing food from the guests

Plussat: It's a hostel in an ally in Puerto Rico, don't expect a Holiday Inn! But isn't that the point of staying in a hostel? Save some money and experience Puerto Rico like locals and make great friends! We partied with the staff, met people from all over the world, and did things most people wouldnt believe. It wouldn't have happened unless we stayed where we were at! I will definitely come back, and I recommend everyone to give it a shot for a night or two, if you're more prissy and enjoy comfort over an adventure go ahead and switch later!

Miinukset: Honestly the room was small, and had a bed and fridge. I didn't expect any more or any less (: it was worth what I paid, and there was really nothing that I did not like.

Plussat: The staff was amazing. They make you feel right at home!! Cecilia is the one who checked me in and Noah and the whole staff helped me a lot throughout the time I stayed. Definitely staying again!

Miinukset: The house is too much old, even the private rooms have shared bath, so not fare for that price.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: The whole place is a joke. Don’t bother spending your money here. I stood for 3 nights with my boyfriend and totally regretted the whole thing... do your self a favor spend the little bit extra money and get a nicer place. VERY Dirty, mosquitos infested, no clean towels, didn’t change the sheets once since our stay, no hot water, and our AC was broken in our room. Other guests were very loud and wonder the halls all night ... staff was taking shots of alcohol with a guests INFORNT of the building. Just super uncomfortable. Every time I had to use the restroom I took my BF with me because I didn’t feel comfortable with the men that lingered around in the Hall way and stood outside of the bathroom door. It was horrible... the island was beautiful but this place was a nightmare. We would purposely stay out late and leave really early so all we had to do was sleep there but even sleeping was very uncomfortable because our AC unit was broken in our room...

Plussat: Come for the cheap deal, stay for the friends! This is one of the best hostels I've ever stayed at in my life, somehow manages to gave a lively party atmosphere, but with really good, thoughtful folks, rather than the usual dudebro scene at the more social hostels. The free nightly dinner (!) and social outing with the mostly volunteer staff ended up the most fun I had in PR. Luis, Haley, Helena, and Eric were some of my favorite people I met on my trip, and were also just really skilled at fostering a solid scene of good folks. I might have just been lucky to be there at a good time, but the testimonies scrawled on the walls by hundreds of previous guests seem to reflect similar experiences. I'll miss you, H1 friends!

Miinukset: Considering the deal, not much. Guests should be aware that the Santurce side of the hostel's neighborhood is potentially sketchy at night, but they should be fine if they go out with company, and the Miramar side is safe whenever. Transit in San Juan can be a little tricky (don't try walking to the old town, way too far), but I appreciated the bike rental that the hostel offered, for those days I didn't have a rental car.

Plussat: It was my first time traveling solo and definitely not the last one. First time with strangers in the same room but everyone was so nice!! And everybody at the hostel is super friendly, we all went out to a party and it was the best time!! If you looking for making friends and spend your time like you’re really living your life that’s the perfect place!

Plussat: The staff is lovely and are plenty of great advices. Loved our time here.

Plussat: The friendly staff, the dinner.

Miinukset: Property wouldn’t make any consideration despite of Hurricane Dorian.

Plussat: The staff was really friendly. It is walking distance from the beach. The mattress was soft and nice. They have free dinner every night and do an event together after. The price was very affordable.

Miinukset: My sheets were very dusty. I believe it was clean but probably sat on the unused bed for a very long time. I was on a top bunk. We didn't get the room we booked. We booked a room on the second floor but got the first floor room. The shower wasn't working when I went to use it. Luckily there was also a shower upstairs so I waited around in my towel until it was available. The bathroom wasn't the cleanest, which you can expect when sharing bathrooms with strangers whose cleaning habits you do not know. Bring flip flops so you don't have to walk around the bathroom barefoot. You also don't have control over who you room with and could end up rooming with questionable roommates. This place is old and run down. It needs a serious renovation. It's located in the hood hood. This was my first time at a hostel and definitely my last. I survived my one night there but would not have stayed a second night if I had to. I wanted out right away. It was good for the experience since I wanted to know what hostels were like but it's not for me.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: No water.

Miinukset: Bathrooms need upgrading; especially showers

Plussat: Was decent location

Miinukset: Water stopped working for the whole night.

Plussat: Comfortable, reasonably priced, near beach and Old San Juan

Plussat: It is in n old building in the heart of Old San Juan., just what we' were wanting. We stayed in a room, facilities were very clean and air conditioning worked well. Beds were basic but comfortable.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: great location if you just stay here for travel and you want save money, I think that you can choice this Hotel

Miinukset: share the bathroom (because this hotel is cheap)
