Hostel Pangea

I had an over all good experience here . The staff is friendly and helpful . My room was clean ,bathrooms are clean and maintained daily .you meet people from all over the world and make friends along the way . It’s 4 blocks away from San Jose center so if you want to shop or look around it will be easy access .

The kitchen was dirty and roaches were crawling all over the plates . The furniture in the reception and in the game areas was ripped up and very stained and dirty .but,I guess you get what you pay for .

La ubicación es muy buena, está a pocas cuadras de la calle comercial y de los distintos lugares de interés que tiene San José. Habitación limpia y grande.

Por la noche es una zona conflictiva y no pudimos salir a pasear. Nos recomendaron que por la noche fuésemos en Uber o en Taxi por nuestra seguridad.

The staff here is amazing. Very helpful and willing to go above and beyond to answer questions and provide assistance. The place is very secure (almost too secure, as you have to wait for the door to be opened each time, which could be a safety concern in itself).

The place was empty, quiet, and dark. Maybe because I stayed on a Wednesday, but there was no one else here at all. It felt very lonely and low energy. The bar shown in the photos was not open, and there was no one around to talk to.
