Casa Oro Eco Hostel

Location and wonderful activities, free breakfast and on-site coffee shop.

Sometimes, you have to go downstairs to increase the Wi-Fi signal, but that’s no big deal.

The hostel is near the beach and all the restaurants in the area. The room was spacious and it had all the essentials needed. The AC unit is a must while in San Juan.

The were times where there was no electricity. However i don’t know how much this depends on the hostel. Breakfast options can be improved.

good location, AC and fans are so appreciated, and the breakfast options are really nice. free filtered water on each floor. pretty clean, the roof offers a lot of peace and good views. bunk beds have curtains which are efficient for privacy (but not blocking light).

it all feels very commercial: it doesn't seem like they enjoy accommodating. rather, tourists are just a consistent way to make money. i don't need the staff to be my buddies, but a smile goes a long way. the staff is almost exclusively men. some seem kind, but most just stare. for balance, vibe, and comfort, they could really stand to hire some women (and not just for cooking and housekeeping). the dorms are very crowded, which is such a shame where snorers and messy surfer bros are concerned. loads of street noise, even over the fans and AC -- but that says more about the culture of the town than the hostel. there are a lot of a-holes being as loud as possible on motorbikes and ATVs here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ it doesn't feel very secure, as the main floor is fully open to the streets. they permit vending & solicitation in the cafe section, so your meals and coffees and digital nomad tasks will be disturbed by people coming in to sell bracelets and toys and snacks. they close the walls at night and there is at least security. there are cheaper, friendlier hostels with similar amenities within walking distance. maybe this is a good place if you just need a place to sleep between adventures. i don't recommend it on a personal level, but it's fine overall.

Sicuramente la posizione aiuta molto. Anche il fatto che i letti dei dormitori siano grandi. Servizio shuttle per le altre spiaggia e anche colazione inclusa che nonostante non sia niente di che fa il suo.

Camere troppo calde anche se con i ventilatori. La sera, essendo che la porta della camera da direttamente sul patio, con il vento non rimaneva chiusa allo stipite che sbatteva ripetutamente per tutta la notte non facendomi dormire bene e la stessa cosa per la struttura dei letti essendo fatta di ferro. Ho chiesto aiuto alla reception ma senza successo.
