Outstanding hostel, clean, quiet and comfortable. Nice pool area in the back with plenty of parking, you need to rent a car to get around to explore. Common area has a spacious kitchen, cable TV and outdoor patio/veranda area. Hotel/Hostel lobby has plenty of info on surrounding area: surfing, snorkeling and diving. There is a grocery store, bank and pharmacy all with walking distance. The Lucky 13 BBQ below the hostel serves tasty food and drinks, a great place to swap travel/surfing stories.

I've been to many hostels in a few countries and this is one of my favorites. comfortable clean beds, rooms have their own bathroom with shower and appear to be fairly new, nice pool out back, parking, new bar and restaurant The Lucky 13 gives it an extra star. Cool surfer vibe, people from all over stay here. other reviews wrote about mean dogs on Calle 14, completely false. I stayed in 2 bed and private room also. Great value and character. walking distance to bank, grocery, restaurants,bakery

VERY IMPORTANT: MANY GUESTS HAVE BEEN BIT BY DOGS ON CALLE 14. This is the road closest to the Inn that leads to the beach. About half way down the street, on the left. I get the impression that the management is trying to get the "Inn" to run its self. I think the building has huge potential but it needs to be attended to. Empty, moldy beer bottles on top of rusty appliances on the balcony, laminated policy signs falling off the walls, drains that wouldn't drain, no hot water.

Moldy beer bottles? I have no idea what you are talking about . You stayed with us for 1 night, on xmas day. Sorry if we were closed on xmas day but that is just how it is. So I am sorry if the fact that we were closed on xmas day gave you the impression that the inn is trying to run itself! You stayed with us for 1 night, what did you do spend your entire time looking for whats wrong instead af actually trying to get out and enjoy the area? We do have hot water and I am sorry if the sign that says please turn off the AC when leaving the room fell off the wall, what a deal breaker! Not one guest has ever said anything about being bit by a dog. I think you need to lighten up a little bit .

Excellent place to stay. Warning: there are several strange rules which you don't learn about except for when you enter the room (fines for leaving on AC when not in room, placing your gear/equiptment on your bed, using towels to clean floor). Oh, and watch out for the HUGE potholes when trying to park your car.

sorry about the potholes. Electricity here in PR is some of the most expensive in the world. So we ask everyone to turn off the AC when not in the room to help conserve energy and keep our prices low. We ask all our guests to keep the other beds not being used free of any personal items for when the next guest shows up. Thank you for yor comments and we are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay!

Very comfortable, nearly empty, but was during off season. Office was closed on Sunday, but the staff left a key for me in the mailbox. Staff were friendly and laid back.

Everything was positive. I really liked the room and people. No matter where you stayif you plan to surf you need a car. surf spots are not walking distances apart

Thank you and I am happy you enjoyed your stay. you are right, to get around in PR you must rent a car, especially if you plan on surfing.

These guys are closed on Sundays...there should be no option to reserve rooms on Sundays then. Also, they don't pick up their phones as I tried calling multiple times. Another group of hostel travelers went the next day to visit the area and some locals told them that Rincon Inn was shut down.
