Stray Cat Hostel

I only stayed there for a night, but I was surprised how clean the hostel was. Friendly staff working there!

Doesn’t look like it from the outside but the inside is great! Seems that they did some renos and they are still doing beautiful paintings on the walls. Nice rooms, good beds, couches in the communal area. The location is pretty close to the city but inside there wasn’t much noise. 24h reception, friendly staff, safe A’s door has to be opened by staff. I checked out before regular brekkie but they still had it ready for me! Awesome! They have a kitchen with everything there for cooking plus some free stuff like spices.

Only downside is the kitchen, only double gas burner for cooking.

Staff were friendly and helpful, rooms and bathrooms were clean, location is ideal in San Jose. Short walking distance to all the major bus stops so ideal for arriving from airport and heading out the next day. Will stay again if I’ve another night stop in San Jose

Great location, within walking distance of several bus stations including the one we needed, also close to the main centre of san jose for shops and food. Staff were very helpful showing us where to go on the map for the centre, and telling us the time of our bus and how to get there. Showers and toilets were kept really clean. Nice little breakfast of cereal and toast is a good bonus as well.
