This is my first time staying at a hostel and Eddy made this experience wonderful…read more - My boyfriend and I had problems with our A/C in our room and Eddy was very accommodating to that. He's a funny and easy guy to talk to. I would definitely come back to this place again. Also, I would 100% recommend the breakfast. The chef is amazing. He also took us snorkeling and even provided us gear! But WOW... he definitely knows his stuff. I was just blown away by the beach and the activities that he took us to. Trust me, you would not want to miss this gem. I would take this over any other hotel in the city. Thank you Eddy for making my stay at Puerto Rico an experience to remember!

Eddie at Casa TripGoGo was there for us when we needed him at midnight when almost all the hostels…read morein San Juan close down and we were stuck either getting an expensive hotel or being stranded. He is available all day and night when you call and he made sure we were able to find his place when we couldnt see the sign. Eddie's hostel is very beautiful- it really impresses with fun, artsy rooms, a good sized kitchen, nice dining patio and roof access that over looks old san juan! The rooms have air conditioning and no windows so we slept very well- the best sleep of the whole trip! We missed regular breakfast but Eddie was sweet enough to cook for us-he even accommodated for my friend who is vegan! Our room was very nice and last minute so it was 70 but splitting it between me and my friend it was very affordable. This place is going to be my first choice next time- in addition to a fabulous location in the heart of Old San Juan, Eddie made our stay in OSJ very memorable!

Overall the hostel was fine! I would stay there again if I had to and not be too upset, but I would…read moreprobably opt for somewhere else if I could. The price was good and the staff were friendly! The location was perfect for Old San Juan area. The rooms were fine, cleanliness would be like a 7/10, the rooms had nice big lockers, but no windows. They do have women-only rooms. The bathrooms are really small with a tiny shower and no ventilation. This is not a very social hostel though.

This is a great hostel if you are looking for something central for partying and enjoy the night…read moreout. Also great if you are traveling alone and want to have company to go out. It is very easy to make friends here. The hostel management also conducts several events: bar crawls, beach outings, hiking trips to the rain forest. Free breakfast is a plus and a great opportunity to connect with other guests. There is free parking on the street north to the hostel. During the day it is very easy to find parking but make sure not to take your car out at night especially until the clubs close which is like 3AM. It would be really tough to find parking again. The property has a dog that sometimes gets inside rooms but he is very gentle. Make sure to close the door behind.

They send you check-in instructions by email and text. Be aware--THERE ARE STAIRS to get up to the rooms. This is pretty common for hostels though. The room I was in--4 bed women only dorm--was clean. The door to get in had a number keypad for security and they also had small lockers for your stuff...bring your own lock though! I liked that the beds each had a little curtain for additional privacy. Bed sheet and towel are included as part of your stay/standard room rate. They had a group chat you can join on WhatsApp. Met some cool people to hangout with. Also, most people I ran into within the common areas were really nice. Additionally, tons of restaurants and bars are in the area. Maybe the only inconvenience is that their kitchen area is closed until 7 or 8 am. If you're planning on waking up early for excursions, that might be something you need to plan around.

Terrible, dirty and unorganized hostel…read more I stayed three nights in this place and have nothing positive to say. On the night of my arrival (11pm), I wandered around the hostel asking "Do you work here?" to everyone that I saw. None of the people I encountered worked at the hostel, nor had any idea of who did. Eventually, while standing by the counter downstairs, I called the hostel's phone. After 10 or so rings, a man wearing a towel and looking hungover stumbled down the stairs. Apparently, this was the manager. He showed me to my mixed-sex dorm which stank of cigarette smoke and mold, while handing me a bundle of sheets and telling me to help myself. None of the power chargers in the room worked... They advertise themselves as being the only hostel in PR with AC and memory foam mattresses....but the AC doesn't work and the mattresses smell like piss and body odor. The showers have an impossibly weak flow. Only half of the water faucets are functional- not including the one in the kitchen or the one in first floor bathroom. The whole place smells like cigarette smoke and is infested by mosquitoes- even in the rooms. Additionally, the hostel is totally unlocked and available for anyone to walk in during the day or night-- which is consequently bad since it is bordered on one side by a slum and on the other side by Ponce de Leon, a neighborhood crawling with policemen and prostitutes. This hostel also offers what it refers to as "free breakfast". This "breakfast" is a combination of old, crusty white bread and jam. There were three flavors of jam available during my stay...and each of them contained a nasty, never washed, fingerprint covered, sticky and dusty butter knife for spreading. Finally the staff is lazy, difficult to find and generally lacking in any knowledge if the area...and honestly just seem to be a bunch of free loading,drunk, pot smoking teenagers.

I'm surprised by a lot of the negative reviews - myself and my 17 other teammates found this place…read morejust fine. We are here for spring break and are taking up 18 of the 23 beds. The beds are a bit creaky, but comfortable. The AC in the bedroom works and keeps the room cool (though the bunk next to the AC unit is freezing). The two bathrooms and kitchens are entirely functional. There's free WiFi (and it's pretty fast even with 18+ of us sharing it!), a cab company across the street, and busy neighborhoods and the beach are all very close by. Some areas that could be improved - the patios can get really dusty, and the hostel has a very open architecture which makes the common spaces get hot and humid during the day. Finally the "free breakfast" in the mornings is nothing to boast about - we've been cooking our own. All in all though; cheap, comfortable, safe, convenient - albeit a little dirty.

Nice people, organized kitchen and the whoket layout was welcoming. Adam who was on staff while we were there was very approachable.

It was very clean and well stocked (utensils,dishes,dish soap) and the staff are very pleasant. I stayed during the off season so it was very quiet.

They house have great suggestions posted for food,beaches, bars etc. they are with in walking distance of a lot of different shops and eateries. they also have a rooftop which is where the bar is located. I will definitely be back to visit.

He is probably starving for charging money for every little thing. - I haven't seen any real employee there. Only Erica that's a volunteer- and she was really nice. - bathroom wasn't cleaned while I stayed there and someone and never flushed so I had to get clorox and disinfect the girls bathroom myself. - after 4pm is a self check in process I will be coming back but definitely staying somewhere else that I feel more comfortable and taken care of. $55 a night is double the price I usually pay for shared rooms in a hostel. I do not recommend renting a car if you are staying in old San Juan. It's impossible to find parking and the traffic jam is baaad

I've stayed here two times and it's only gotten better since last year…read more Sara knows how to run a good place to stay. First off, you can't beat the location. You're on the beach. Second, the house is beautiful. Third, everything you need is in the house. Hammocks, stove, grill, outdoor shower to clean off after the beach, the only reason to leave is to go buy food. I can't recommend this place enough.

When things got tough and the shit hit the fan all Sara could do is say it wasn't her fault, when we were following house rules. Needless to say she left an incredibly sour taste. Laura was away and was not able to help us at the time. Once Laura got back from her vacation she was wonderful. Helping us anyway she could while dealing with the nightmare that is Sara. Laura refunded our stay and has been doing everything in her power to make things right, a true professional and kind person. Now that Laura has a new location in NY and has severed all ties with Sara I would be more then happy to stay with her. Below is a warning to all...The location in PR is great but the owner (Sara is TERRIBLE) stay at your own risk... DO NOT STAY AT GRATEFUL SOULS HOSTILE in PR. AWFUL HOST, beyond selfish and rude as can be. If you have an issue...Sara will hang up on you or ignore you.
