Safe, quiet place that's accessible...
Liked: As a solo female traveler, I am cautious about booking hostels and bed and breakfast places during my travels. After looking at the area through Google images and reading the other reviews, I was convinced this met my look fors: safe, accessible, value for the money, attentiveness/promptness (response to inquiries). Chris and David, the receptionists, were both helpful and friendly. I received text messages regarding my stay, codes, etc... I also happened to book the single-bed room on the rooftop. Chris was kind enough to tell the other guests about keeping late night music low-although this didn't bother me. In fact, on the second night, I met wonderful people- fellow guests- and got invited to a birthday party where I learned a bit of bachata, salsa, and gasolina. The bedroom was a perfect size for a solo traveler and the bathrooms and shower rooms were clean. Public buses were accessible- across the street I took T5 to Old San Juan. The same route took me back to the hostel, to Isla Verde... it goes all the way to the SJU airport. But since I had an early morning flight, I took Uber for $11. There were grocery stores, Walgreens, Mc Donalds, KFC, and acai bowls/fruit smoothies in less than a mile. I also walked all the way to Condado beach (about a mile). I've walked Calle Loiza and enjoyed the murals as well. Thank you Nomada Urban Hostel for making my first trip to PR, a great experience!
Disliked: Being on the rooftop, I shared the space with some pigeons-just be careful not to step on their droppings.

Ultimately if you are an...
Liked: The place was clean and people were nice. There are a lot of food places near by and it’s a central location in Puerto Rico for travelers.
Disliked: The safety you feel while on vacation so far away from home is very important. I did not feel safe here due to the security system in place. I had to check in late due to my flight delay and I was very frightened to find out the security system was disabled. I opened each door leading to my assigned bed with no access codes entered at all. There was no staff overnight contributing to the lack of safety and security! I mentioned this to staff the next day and they mentioned it was “not a big deal” and they just needed to reset the security system. Ultimately I did not stay here and ended up staying with a friend instead.
