    Everything was pretty good, I had a guy with a chainsaw snore in my room, but it's an 8-bed room in a hostel, so that just comes with the territory lol.

    I had a great time! Made friends with other solo travelers and the front desk workers were very friendly and helpful too!

    There is no tourism information, and most staff were unable to answer any questions. Would have helped to have brochures or the like to assist travelers. They have notices that they will charge you for any stained towel or bedding etc. I found it very strange and also found my towel stained to begin with. Hope they don’t charge me for that!

    The place is trendy looking with a nice vibe, pool, and speakeasy/restaurant adjacent. We did eat there for convenience. Delicious but not a way to save money. Room was tight but quaint.

    It's a really nice hostel, with a pool. The private rooms are nice and clean, and the same goes for the shared dorms. It's near the airport, and I stayed a bit after checkout before my flight. Pro tip: If you are taking Uber from the Airport, take it to Burger King across the street and just cross the bridge.

    Expensive for a dorm room bunk bed, but PR is admittedly expensive and it was a festival weekend so you just have to pay more sometimes

    Curtains for each bunk bed, clean pool, music helped the atmosphere but was not too loud, staff were friendly, near that main road that has the bus line to old town (but is infrequent)

    Anything I didn't like (it was perfectly close to the airport as I was looking for), but it is far from old town if it is what you look for...

    Really great structure and a dynamic hostel, perfect for solo travellers!

    You had to do the check in yourself and find your own room. The lock of my room was broke and they didn’t fix it, so everyone could actually just walk in.

    Location was perfect. Really comfortable and relaxing area. Great restaurants in the area too. Walking distance to the beach. Parking available!

    Saw a few baby cockroaches in my room but it's tropical so not surprising. The room felt very clean overall.

    Staff was overly welcoming and friendly. Walking distance to a great beach and a few restaurants. Easy Uber distance from airport (I paid $7 one way and $12 the other way). Amazing food at the Vagabond speakeasy next door if you have the budget - grilled octopus is in my top 10 of all time. Nicely appointed rooms and kitchen; they thought of everything you might need. Would definitely stay here again.

    The bed and mattress could be more comfortable, also the headboard could be different, so that the pillow wouldn’t fall; There were no flyers and recommendation of tours; The receptionists didn’t know if there was a way to go to Ceiba, although it’s a common place because of the ferry to Culebra

    Very close to the airport; There is a private bathroom inside the dorm; There is a nice pool; It’s not noisy; It’s close to the beach;

    It’s strange but I think when you have aircraft flying over one side and then a highway on the opposite side noise can be a slight irritation

    It’s only 10 mins from the airport and the bus is free though that will change sometime in the near future. There is a pool good showers and the staff were good

    Maybe they can add some critters or typical foods to offer there guest’s, so that they don’t have to go out wondering we’re to eat. Other than that, it was perfect.

    It has a great location, great employees, it was always cleaned by the maintenance guy, the staff even played with the guest’s, during the night by the pool. There are places to buy good food, at a walking distance. They also have a kitchen we’re you can actually prepare your own food. There are also bar’s on sight and if you go buy car, you’ll have a lot of other places to eat at and have fun. It was a great escape and was able to do everything I planned. Didn’t use the pool, because of the rain. Other than that I was impressed. Very cozy.
