Hostel with hammocks, offering double rooms and suites with an improbable and particularly inspiring decoration

A huge youth hostel, unique in its kind, just like its owner, Djay's, an original artist. Hammocks and tents are arranged under vast hangars, and the whole is very well arranged. The double rooms and the suites, have an improbable decoration! The clientele is young, festive and finally very close to the rasta spirit of Puerto Viejo... In terms of entertainment, you will have the right every evening to a big wood fire accompanied by live music on the beach. Once a month, the Full Moon Party also allows you to let off steam.

Management:
Please speak with Kellen at reception. There was an additional lock put on my locker. When I asked for it to be removed I had to wait until 1:20pm for the next person on shift.
Kellen wouldn't open my locker and ignored me. The hostel was withholding my passport, and credit card illegally. I was checked out, and leaving. I had no problems with the hostel, or premises, until I was leaving. I had to wait 1.5hrs for the lock to be opened.
An employee with authority abused his power and I felt unsafe, and all I wanted was to leave. Take note in this online review, this isn't good, or wise of staff members to do this to customers. Withholding passports, and credit cards are illegal, and I didn't owe any money.

You have my contact information, if you chose to email and talk about this further I m happy to set up a time with you.

Another women opened the locker for me without hesitation and apologized, so thank you to her for being there.

****UPDATE****
Management has never contacted me about this scenario. If you stay at this location as a single female traveller, be aware of the guy named Kellen (if he is still employed or around the area). I would consider myself a fairly experienced traveler over the years. Rockin J's is the first and ONLY place that has had an employee/staff member put an additional lock on my personal belongings locker. And since I know I had already payed and was LEAVING, I could not leave the premices without my passport or money.
Show this review to Management and let them know how important it is not to have creepy male staff in charge of computers, or access to lockers!
Management should atleast notify the public that this situation was acknowledged. Females being held up in hostels isn't a positive review/good for word of mouth once people start reading this. (I stayed there for 3 days).

Muy buen hostel con acceso directo a la playa. Buenas instalaciones y actividades por parte del Staff que hacen todo lo posible para que te sientas cómodo en tu estancia. Sin duda el mejor lugar para alojarte en Puerto Viejo! Gracias Pablito, Kevin, Mcgiver y todos los miembros del Hostal, volveremos a vernos!

Es un lugar bonito y acogedor. A pesar de ser aseado, habían olores muy feos dentro de la cabaña. Parece que solo cambian las bolsas de la basura, pero no lavan los basureros.

El lavatorio no funcionaba , pero todo lo demás sí incluyendo la plantilla, abanico, etc. La cama grande y muy cómoda. No habían muchas almohadas ni sábanas, pero las que habían eran suaves y agradables al tacto.

La entrada a la habitación era una puerta tipo puerta de ático , y era una puerta muy pesada de alzar a la hora de subir las gradas y empujar hacia arriba la puerta para poder entrar.

Entre otras cosas, había agua fría y también caliente en la ducha y el diseño era de corales, muy cool.

Tenían bebidas a la venta en recepción, mas no había mucha variedad, pero al frente hay una tienda de conveniencia.

El staff muy amable y agradable.

Me pareció extraño que no dejen fumar m@rihuana pero tienen letreros de 420 en la entrada del lugar.
