Customer Reviews San José - Hostel Casa Yoses

11 May 2012 Nora, Ireland (Republic of)
The staff are great & the hostel is located in a nice part of San Jose. We booked our room online & believed we booked a private room & bathroom. It was very disappointing to find that the bathroom attached to our room (which had the door locked from the other side!) was in fact the shared bathroom for everyone on that floor. The divide between the bathroom & our room had not been sound proofed & it was pretty tough (read gross) to have to listen to everyone going to the bathroom all night... We stayed one night .

I loved it there. It is big and spacious. The dorms are big with an adjoining bathroom and lockers for your valuables. There is a restaurant right on the premise. There is free wifi and several computers you can use. It has a pool table and 2 TVs. I could go on but you have to see it.A small breakfast of cereal, coffee, toast and jam and at the time papaya is included. The people on the reception desk are marvelous and go out of there way to help you. v,s It is is far enough but close enough to the down town.

The hostel was great. The staff so helpful. The city itself left alot to be desired and no street signs made travel extremely difficult.

I had a 6´x8´ single room which abuts the wall of the 24/7 security business next door. It was very noisy. Also there were some plumbing glitches. The clogged toilet was set right quickly , but at timrs it was hard to find a working shower.The staff is wonderful, very patient with my bad Spanish, plus they speak perfect English.

It was great the staff was great especially claudia and Kemal the only problem was that there were some German people that were very noisy the first and second night. Next time i would like like to see some type of quiet hours. asking the other guest not to be too loud after ten and before eight am. Otherwise It was one of the best hostels I have ever been in the staff was very friendly, nice and helpful.
