Excellent hostel, petit, accueillant. Oscar a rendu notre séjour incroyable en discutant et nous conseillant. Nous avons eu l’occasion de rencontrer Bella qui reprend l’hostel, gentille, bienveillante et motivé. L’hostel a un grand avenir devant lui. :)

Really good hostel if you want a chill stay. when i was there there were only couples, so not that easy to connect... but the hostel itself is great. only real negatif is that you can feel the coil springs in the matress pretty good.

Oscar ist ein super better Host. Er hat mir jeden Morgen einen Kaffee gemacht und war immer super freundlich und froh seine Tipps mit mir zu teilen. Ein wirklich nettes Hostel in dem man alles hat was man braucht

Tipazo Oscar. Ya declarado hincha de Boca. Te trata muy bien y hace muy amena la estadía. Nos preparó desayuno y contó muchas historias, además de dar recomendaciones sobre qué hacer y dónde ir en La Fortuna

Great location, and had everything we needed. The owner, Oscar, made the stay for us. He was friendly, attentive, and even made us empanadas! Very cold showers and not much English spoken but overall a great experience.

Such a homely vibe and great social space at the front with hammocks. There is parking and a quiet yet central location. My private room was basic but comfortable. Areas of improvement would be bathroom cleanliness (I had to ask to get the bathroom cleaned as it hadn’t been cleaned) and upgrading the room decor and amenities as the room was very basic. The best thing were owners Oscar and Derek who are amazing and welcoming and I really enjoyed their company and coffee in the mornings.

Oscar is an amazing host and his son is also a lovely person. In the common place, I could get to know nice people. There are 2 cats in the hostel, Coco is laid back and Patas is such a joy. You never get bored in this hostel if you are a cat lover. The mountain view from the 2nd floor is gorgeous when there is less cloud on the peak. I had a great time in La Fortuna thanks to Hostel Batzu!

Place looked cute via photos. But in person lacked anything nice, other than the outside lounge. Private room was pretty dirty, bathroom was rugged, and overall very grungy vibes. No hot water in the bathroom. Great parking right out front! Wow. This place is LOUD. Motorcycles, loud cars, a live music place that could be heard all night, and a room right next to stairs. By far the worst place I’ve slept in Costa Rica.
