Villa Eshta

L’emplacement

Hygiène très approximative et douche inutilisable car pas de pression

Il ragazzo dello staff nonchè proprietario era superdisponibile, c'è una piccola cucina dove si può preparare qualcosina.

Il bagno (seppur privato) era fuori dalla stanza, ma questo lo sapevamo. L'ambiente è molto umido e ci puzza un po' di muffa. Il proprietario gentilissimo ci ha dato un deumidificatore dal momento che quello del climatizzatore non funzionava, per carità gentilissimo... però la stanza rimaneva comunque umida! I letti erano a molle, molto vecchi e con una specie di plastica di rivestimento intorno al materasso che praticamente ti faceva sudare tutta la notte.

The location was very good. Only need one minute walking to the bus stop. 5 minutes walking to the beach. AC was good.

There was no hot water in the room most of time. The floor was not clean.

Location

The keypad never works on the dorm door. You're at the mercy of someone else to let you in. No hot water. Hit my head on the ceiling fan that was literally two feet above me on my bunk.

The location was ok

Nothing in the property listing matches the place. The listing mentions a beachfront accommodation, coffee facilities in the room, towels, bar, cleaning products, fridge etc. The property is not beachfront and none of this is available in the rooms and there is no bar, no fridge, no soap and no towels. Towels were only provided late at night after we asked for them. Same as the wifi, it was not on, and they only switched it on when I enquired about it. No staff are available on property, check in is listed between 3pm and 10pm, once you arrive you ring the bell but no one answers. Our booking was not confirmed because the original card details were wrong, I updated the details on booking.com but the owner kept trying to charge the old card details. After 15 minutes outside the gate, I managed to get hold of him over a phone call. I have seen multiple complaints on the water pressure and it still is the same, impossible for someone with long hair to wash it under that water. During my call with him I asked him if any of the private rooms were available but he said no. However we have only met the people in our dorm, I dont think anyone else was there. Also, the people there were kind of weird, not the usual travellers you find in a hostel. We are frequent travellers and stayed in many hostels around the world, unfortunately this was one of the worst we stayed at as from the listing we expected something different. If you book a private room, please note that some are based within the dorm itself, so not the usual private room you would expect. I am normally not picky on accommodation but this time we definitely felt cheated as the reality does not match the listing at all!! STAY AWAY!

Super auberge, idéalement située, avec une ambiance au top ! Le lieu est propre, fonctionnel et très convivial. Waleed est un propriétaire exceptionnel : accueillant, professionnel et d’une grande gentillesse. Mille mercis pour l’accueil, la disponibilité et la générosité. Une adresse à ne pas manquer !

Ras

La ubicación

Las sábanas tenías mal olor, el lugar desde que entramos tenía olor a marihuana, muy encerradas las habitaciones, sin jabón en el baño, la ducha tiene una ventana que da hacia una casa, la habitación huele a humedad.

CLOSE TO ALL..BEACH RESTAURANT,SHOPPING

I liked everything

Close to all.. recommended

Loved all

It was cute. The Room was nice and clean. The open electrical outlet in the shower was concerning.

Open electrical outlet in showr

Host was great.

Everything was fine.

The staff was excellent,those ladies deserve a raise,they are social and hard workers,they was always cleaning Everytime I seen them..

Thee only thing I didn't like was some disrespectful guest that I'm glad I won't have to see his face again..no morals or respect.

Good beds and kitchens, but the showers have little pressure and dont get hot. Also the vibes here dont lead to people talking people kinda just do their own thing. More mature crowd. Right next to great restaurants and beach also.

Showers

Propriétaire plurilingue très agréable. À quelques pas d’un arrêt de bus et quelques mètres de la mer. Chambres climatisées avec lockers. Entrée à tout moment avec les codes.

Tout est bruyant, difficile d’être discret

Real good location close to an awesome beach and to a bus stop that brings you to the old city, also walkable distance from Santurce. The owner was amazing at helping the travellers to socialize. The kitchen is well equipped.

The bar inside the hostel is a bit expensive, but still worth it if you are looking to get to know new people.

La atencion y ayuda por parte de su dueño

Relacion calidad precio

La ubicación!!

Demasiado caro!!! Pagué mucho por tan poco confort, el lugar muy sucio, no cumplió para nada mis expectativas, nada q ver con lo q muestran!!

Lo utilizamos una noche. Estaba limpio y la cama cómoda.

Nothing. Our room had so many bugs in the kitchen area.

Everything. Confusing to check in and not clean inside.

It ended up being a great hostel where to meet people. Very nice and diverse guests. Nice patio where to socialize. Close to the beach.

With the air conditioning, I was cold in the dorm. The check-in was done remotely, through emails with the codes to access the hostel. There was no staff for all the first day and that made me feel suspicious about the place. It ended up to be a very pleasant stay.

Mignon calme et très bien situé. Parfait pour dépanner

Simple fin draps en couverture, robinet douche cassé, literie et équipement très moyen.

Location. Since there was no reception we communicate only thru messages but they responded quickly to our queries. I even checked very early. Many restos locals and Mc Donalds, KFC and convenience store, pharmacy just infront of the Hostel and close to the beaches like Ocean park and playa del ultimo trolley

Need some upgrades like lockers, shower handles etc but the premesis were clean

Lugar tranquilo y muy bien ubicado

Nos dieron una habitación con una sola cama, sabiendk que nosotros reservamos una habitacion con 2 camas desde Booking. No fue posible cambiar la habitacion ni cancelar la reserva

The staff was great and the service was awesome. The people in my "room" ask connected and went out to do various things. One night some of the staff went with us to Viejo San Juan. Great location just off Calle Loiza and a short walk to La Placita de Santurce and Condado.

The only drawback was the water pressure. But they're were also water outages all over Ssn Juan and Santurce at the time. S good cistern would have helped, but aside from that this location was awesome!!!

Comfy, peaceful

Clean, but run-down apartment.

Good instructions and clean. Had a quick stay.

La ubicación está muy bien, con restaurantes, playa y la placita cerca. Tiene una cocina, bar y una terraza muy chula.

Que no hubiese cortinas en las camas para tener más intimidad y persianas o cortinas en las ventanas para que no entre tanta luz desde tan temprano. Por otro lado, durante un tiempo se fue el agua de nuestro cuarto, lo que nos impedía ducharnos, ir al baño, etc. Enviamos un correo al alojamiento para informar y no recibimos ninguna respuesta.

El concepto del lugar, muy interesante. Su personal muy amable.

Great common area and nice designed and thought through common areas. Very social hostel, perfect for solo travelers who like to meet people. Each dorm has a kitchen and bathroom.

All was good, the only things that could have been better are the shower in our dorm (little water) and the AC did not cool very well the second night (even tho the settings were set correctly). No deal breaker for me and has potential for 10 stars with small improvements.

Good location & staff was awesome!

Location customer Service and privacy

Kitchen areas filled with ants and not cleaned

Set up like Dorm rooms

Location perfect spot. Everything walking distance

The staff is absolutely amazing, and the hostel is cheap and well located. It’s a very good deal I recommend 100%!!

No hot water at all (which is okay because it’s hot outside but it’s better to take a shower with warm water haha)

The artwork around the property is beautiful, the place is neat and well kept, the staff are a pleasure to work with. Th

There’s nothing I can say here. Bendiciones

I like that is cheap and overall is good relation price-quality.

noisy.

Very clean.. Quiet. Great location. Friendly staff

Nothing

Nice hostel. Very clean. Great hosts

Outdoor Seating, location - few blocks from the beach

Uncomfortable metal beds (there was a cement block underneath the bed), Shower pressure terrible, Weakest wifi, even phones don't function forget about the laptops. They demand you to send your ID cards/passports through Gmail or else threaten to cancel your reservation. They give you the check in details after 3.30pm and they are charging $50 (with taxes) for a Bunk bed. Not worth to stay here at all!

2 bathrooms in dorm, offered towels, public spaces, decent pillows

Not well cleaned, dorm door was problematic, too expensive for quality of instalations, lots of mosquitos in kitchen

Very convenient location . 2 blocks from the beach and near many restaurants and pharmacies. Staff are very nice and helpful.

It can be noisy sometimes

I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO STAY AT .

I liked how close the hostel was to the beach and had a bunch of amazing food options near by (walkable too!). The staff was very friendly and helped providing recommendations on what to do/eat.

Sleeping was a huge issue. The neighbor's dogs bark all night and with the restaurants near by, you're quality of sleep will be diminished. The bathroom had black mold in it. It is also non refundable.

The employees and location were top notch.

Other travelers seemed to think they could be loud, take showers and snot rocket/hawk up a loogie IN the shower at 5am because”it was a hostel”.

A bit loud after quiet hours

Very friendly place. Quick response by email whenever I had a question. A few blocks from the ocean and sandy beach. Nothing fancy but worked for a bed and location great. Reasonably priced. Community refrigerator and microwave etc. KFC, McDonalds, Walgreens, and several restraunts nearby. Uber super reasonable.

No wash cloths, paper towels, or soap in bathroom. No Tv. There was a chirping sound all night. Thin walls.

Great place

Close location to the beach, walking distance.

The staff was great and very friendly!!

Parking was very stressful, there was no quiet time after 10 pm the noise went until 4 am and someone pulled on our door trying to get into our room. I reserved a room with two twin beds and I got a room with one queen bed.

location.

Not well managed ... high staff turnover ... clicky

It’s ok for the value

The bathroom was separate from the room

Close to the Ocean Park beach

Kitchen is not ready for travelers at all — so is the WiFi connection

The position is nice, lively neighborhood. Easy to find, nice walks. Staff was super gentle. It is clean. It's fine for the price.

It was a little loud in the night, I think my room was limiting with a comercial place, so in the early morning there was a lot of rush. The place can have some renovations, like the bathroom (shower) was old. But just little things, its a good price for the quality one can expect.

The staff here make you feel at home, like you’re apart of the family. Very nice and welcoming staff.

Beds are uncomfortable Shared refrigerator and no tv

Guests had too many belongings rolling down the room.

LI’m ve the location, the staff is very nice ,clean room.

Out side noise

Villa gives you that authentic Puerto Rico vibe, and while it was a 5 star hotel, the staff made it feel like it with there 5 star service

Super friendly, cool vibe, safe and comfy

Super small bathroom and only 1 toilet for 6 people, shower was broken

I liked that there are parties on sundays. I liked the common space. I liked the wifi

I didn't like that the door didn't lock from the outside. There was no a/c

The atmosphere was good but make sure you request the bathroom in side the room. Being private doesnt always mean one step away. No tv and younger crowd. It was ok but not for the extra $$ I had to pay. Wont be staying there again. But if you like a style of camping this place is for you. Hippies are welcome.

The extra cash I had to pay no tv and the beds are cots like I was in the Marines again. the beach is further than We expected maybe 3 long blocks away and the heat was unbelivable so try to wear as less cloths as possible.

The rooms are nice and cold, bathrooms in each room was nice too.

There is no social atmosphere with guests. It also is a bit far from the main areas you want to go out.

Clean, quiet, safe hostel or private rooms in a safe walkable area of San Juan. Walk to restaurants, bakery, Walgreens drugstore, Ocean Park Bakery, Check in instructions were clear. Staff were nice.

I wish they had a second warmer blanket not only a sheet available but you could/ should a bring your own as the AC gets cold at night
