Everyone was so helpful! I booked this place to sleep for a few hours before my early morning flight. They picked me up from the airport bus stop and then dropped me off a few hours after. I booked a quad room and they were nice enough to give me my own quad room so I wouldn’t bother anyone waking up in the middle of the night. Would definitely recommend staying here and will stay here again if I’m ever back in Costa Rica! Thank you!!

By far the best hostel I have stayed in, everything was awesome but what stood out for me is the staff that were so caring and lovely, their dog (Holy) is so cute that you just want to pet her all the time. It really felt like my second home every second i was there

I liked the most how the lady (forgot her name) helped me book taxi early in the morning. She was even awake at 4 am to make sure that taxi is there. Its really close to the airport, but you need to book transportation bc of traffic you cant really walk till airport

The owner is incredibly nice and helped every guest coming in an out of Costa Rica to find the proper information they needed, whether it be bus times or taxi fares (she stays up until all arrivals are there and wakes up early for every check out + makes coffee for the guests in the morning). Place was wonderfully clean and organised, and easy to get to from the airport.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
