Casa Kraken Hostel

Great place, staff always great.

Excelente ubicación, el personal en su mayoría muy amable aunque algunos demasiado desinteresados por los huéspedes o sin nada que aportar. Desayuno básico, zonas comunes limpias. Un detalle es que queda al lado de la iglesia y les gusta darle a las campanas (realmente casi ni lo note pero hay gente que le puede llegar a molestar). Tiendas y mercados pequeños cercanos. Mercado de artesanías cerca. Playa no nadable a 5 minutos, para nadar debes caminar solo un poco. Parada de autobús a 1 c...

I loved my stay here! Everything felt so clean and comfortable! The location is great if you want be in the Centro and near the Romantic Zone. The free breakfast is simple but it’s a great bonus! Only con is that there’s no hot water for showers, which given that it’s in a very hot climate doesn’t matter that much!

abbiamo alloggiato qui per due notti, hostel molto pulito e tranquillo. ottima posizione e colazione inclusa top! alla prossima!!

Lovely humans. Felt taken care of completely. Very grateful for this stay!

Gran hostal conocí muchas personas muy limpio y gran staff quizás solo faltan más actividades y mejorar el área de regaderas pero en todo lo demás me la pasar muy bien hospedado con ellos

se fue el agua lol

Great location near all the action in town. The hostel was very, very clean with a lot of communal bathrooms. Great communal area and provided breakfast. HOWEVER, it is right next to a church with the LOUDEST bells in the world that would sometimes ring at 6am and throughout the whole day. I timed it and sometimes it would be ringing its bells for more than a minute. Also the rooms are poorly ventilated and with fans I was still sweating to death. I wouldn’t stay at this hostel again personall...

Excellent and very helpful staff! Wasn’t very social, but makes up for it with amazing location!

A great hostel to stay at. The place is clean and quiet, its in a good location as the zona Romantica is an easy walk away, and the staff is friendly and helpful. The place is really secured, as only guests can get in the front door. It's got lovely vibes and the included breakfast hits the spot. I stayed in the women's only dorm and I'm happy they had that as an option. There's filtered water that you can fill up your water bottles with if you're brave (I did and didn't get sick)

AVOID. Arrived at 9, was asked to leave due to ‘cleaning’ and not even allowed to charge my phone- awful lady! Beds- dangerous if top bunk as no proper ladder, the whole bed shaky, no privacy. Showers- limited privacy, everything in the open. No activities offered, no proper hostel vibe or rules accommodating travellers. Bag storage- 100! Better choose elsewhere.

I loved it here!!! It was perfect for what we needed. The staff was super sweet and willing to help. The location felt safe and close to a lot! Overall I had a great experience:)

Great hostel. Close to the beach and food. Saw whales from the rooftop. Cool common spaces. Met some awesome peeps.

I had the best time ever. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Hostel has multiple hangout space. Location is the prime spot tbh as you are close everything you need. If you are looking to find convenient and good hostel I would recommend this. Have try little to make friends with other travels but had great time.

It was just okay to stay here. I stayed at 1st floor, the room was really huge but there were only 8 beds without curtain. It was really odd to me.

I love the hostel especially the rooftop chill area! There's not much to do tho and not much activities to connect with other travelers.

A pretty basic hostel in the heart of Puerto Vallarta! Very clean rooms and bathrooms. There aren’t really social activities planned by the hostel but guests might put some together and send in the group chat. It has a couple nice outdoor seating areas too. No AC in the rooms but the fans help at night.

We stayed at Casa Kraken over the new year and it was wonderful. It’s in a prime location, so you can walk to most things which is awesome. The place is constantly being cleaned. The wifi is highly questionable so keep that in mind if you need it. The rooftop has some sweet views and the common areas are cozy. Ofc as with most hostels the people you meet there are half the experience and we met some amazing people there. Until next time

En général toute est super, mais l’emplacement vien avec le fais que c’est super bruyant la nuit! Pas d’air climatisé, fenêtres ouvertes.. la cuisine ferme à 10h.. tu ne dois pas oublier tes choses à l’intérieur! Même si du au autre point fort la note est de 7.4… je ne donne pas plus qu’un 6.5.

Its one of my favorite hostels in puerto as its right in front of the malecón and beach, its basic and really nice.
