I was just looking for a place to spend a night while travelling between cities and ended up in a super clean hostel with a pool that was a 5 minute walk to the markets. I’ll be returning here on my way out.

This place is good for one night. Staff is friendly. If you are in a female dorm your room is across the street at the hostel called “workstation” and that building is just for rooms, not to be social. It has an abandoned feel to it, but the beds are comfy. However, you have access to “backpackers” next door where they have a pool and bar so that’s nice! That place isn’t too social either though, everyone minds their business. Overall a good value for money

Nuit correcte (lit ok sanitaires propres) mais pas d’accès à une cuisine pour dîner rapidement ou faire son petit dej le matin, café gratuit à dispo, se situe dans une rue un peu tendue ? Un chauffeur de taxi m’a conseillé de changer de chemin

This hostel is fine. The pool is nice and the rooms are big and clean. There isn’t a huge social vibe there but the food isn’t terrible. Why this review is so low is because while I was at the pool, the workers started spraying chemicals on all the plants surrounding and in the common area. I asked them to stop and they refused and claimed they weren’t chemicals. Even though they were wearing gas masks. The air quickly filled with a chemical smell and I could taste the chemicals I was inha...

just kind of a pass-through hostel. Keep in mind that there's a loud ass honking train every like 10 minutes right next to the hostel in the morning

Gutes Hostel für eine Nacht. Zentral gelegen, freundliches Personal. Dorm war sehr großzügig geschnitten, aufgrund von undichten Fenstern jedoch sehr kalt. Zudem direkt neben der hupendem Straßenbahn und damit sehr laut. Im Hostel selbst gibt es keine Community Area, daher keine Hostel Atmosphäre.

There were cockroaches in the rooms. The staff are very rude and unwilling to help. The staff gives priority to non Costa Rican customers over Costa Ricans.

Is actually the same as my previous day. The one lady that worked one of the desks who was from Argentina, was absolutely amazing. The other employees did not care. And did not want to be there. And were not helpful in any way Especially the man that worked at the one with the turtle on the sign at the front desk.We're always wearing a green shirt, absolutely ignorant and useless

Really good atmosphere and nice common area. Only issue was the very loud train passing the hostel quite often, even during the night
