This was my second time staying at the Castle Tam and I plan to go back again. It's a good deal for San Jose, the room is fine and the owner-manager does his best to make me happy. I also had an opportunity to do a little dancing and to watch some music videos out in the "garage," which filled a certain need in a safe environment. The hostel attracts an interesting assortment of people. susan, from US Virgin Islands ~ 21st May 2012

Nice place to stay, and you will have almost secure area. there are two malls around. all the staff are helpful. The only thing I have to mention is that the bed could be cleaner than that I saw, actually the pillow was dirty, and there were no towel & soap in the room and you have to pay for that if you need one. I did not stay in my room since I had some business to do but in total that is a good hostel. Thanks to the Hostel. Kevin, from Canada ~ 1st May 2012

Very friendly, outgoing and knowledgeable staff. There's a security gate around the building, and inside feels very homey. Rooms were clean and comfortable. There's loads of places to relax and socialize, or to just sit by yourself. The staff are actively upgrading and working on little projects. I think as time goes on Castle Tam, which is a great hostel, will get better and better. My only complaint would be that they need to update their kitchen supplies and utensils.

The staff was great, very nice and friendly, they helped us out a lot with our first contact with Costa Rica. We really appreciated it. We stayed at a private room that wasn't clean and it was a bit messy. The shared bathroom was also dirty. Despite all this, they make you feel like home. I highly recommend for people traveling alone, you will find a great atmosphere and a very helpful staff. Tatiana, from Uruguay ~ 5th Jan 2012

Minor owners were great.Manuel makes sure you have everything you need and feel comfortable while Raleigh guarantees the nightlife. Laid back. Secure for women. In the middle of San Pedro, so you can get the Tico experience and the familiarity of home (anglo). Flexible, public TV, public library, public internet. Khadra, from USA ~ 27th Nov 2011

Very friendly staff that puts a lot of time and effort into helping you out and making sure things go smoothly. They make the extra effort to be certain that nothing goes wrong. Pavan, from USA ~ 21st Sep 2011
