Tiny airless rooms, no space to even put your rucksack on floor without falling over it. Toilets and showers that have an average of 20 people using per day and only cleaned once a day.....disgusting state. Iron walkways which made you feel you were in a prison. Pool not clean. Staff...few and unhelpful. Good cocktails in happy hour and great... more

the staff at the front desk is abusive. I left a treasured necklace in one of their locked bathrooms and for 2 days they said that they did not have the key to open it up, so i could recover it. I left my info for when that was possible to open it, and returned there 2 weeks later, they... more

Now someone i know said they had a bunch of money in a security box, and it was stolen. Now that was the only real significant problem i have heard about Pangea. But its not very expensive really. They will try to overcharge you for everything, but thats what you should expect for a gringo style hotel. The staff wasn't... more

I suppose you would love this place if you were a barely legal kid looking to get trashed, scream all night, and didn't mind catching an STD from the toilet seat. If any of those apply to you, definitely stay here, because you won't even care that they over charge for rooms that I couldn't even justify calling dorms with... more

I really don't know where to start on Pangea. It's not cheap if you have multiple people, and don't expect a refund if you cannot make it another night there. They could certainly afford to give you a blanket, since it's cold in San Jose at night. But not only do you not get a blanket, you only get half... more

Pangea has a good location, but other than that I did not enjoy my stay. I thought it was overpriced for a horrible atmosphere, dirty bathrooms, and unhelpful staff. Not a mellow place to stay... but you can meet some other travelers at the upstairs bar (just hope they don't puke in your room which happened to my friend!) more

This hostel has recently moved to new locations and you notice that it is newly renovated. Everything is top notch. They have it all planned out with perfect processes, but the place lacks atmosphere. I would not recommend it to single travellers, not really an easy place to get to know people. For us travelling as a family it was... more
