Alajuela Backpackers Airport Hostel

it's super close to the airport and has a free shuttle but that's really the only standout part of this hostel. It's very basic but priced well and was clean enough.

Just put curtains on the beds its not hard

Hidden $10 luggage fee after 2pm. If you store bags 'free,' they forbid you from leaving the building and make you sit in lobby or restaurant. Dorms are dark sauna. Uncomfortable beds,flatpillows. Found white stains on sheets, cockroaches, no soap, no lockers in rooms, only ONE electrical outlet. Ceilings leaked, soaking my luggage and ruining my stuff before a flight. Staff are rude and claim the manager is 'missing.' Sketchy area and useless morning-only shuttle. AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

El hostal tiene una buena ubicación y en general las instalaciones son cómodas, especialmente las habitaciones y camas. Sin embargo, mi experiencia con la atención no fue la mejor. Sentí poca disposición para brindar soluciones en el momento y falta de flexibilidad en temas de pago, lo que hizo el proceso menos cómodo de lo esperado. En general, el lugar está bien, pero el servicio podría mejorar.

Eh ok. Quick night but staff is not that nice

good for one night before or after the flight but would not recomend more

Nice airport hostel. Just a bit noisy as you can expect in an hostel, could hear people in the hallways and the cars passing by outside, so bring earplugs and you should be fine. Overall it was good for the price !

Dortoir de 10 à fuir absolument, aucune fenêtre pour aérer, donc odeurs insoutenable. Plus une gestion de la clim aléatoire, marche une nuit sur 2 ou seulement la moitié de la nuit.

Great Hostel for one night after/before a flight. The free shuttle to the airport is very convenient and was easy to book over the reception. There is a rooftop bar, where you can have drinks and some snacks. Beds were comfortable!

Bien pour la transition à l’aéroport

Muy buena estancia, muy seguro para mujeres que viajan solas y el shuttle al aeropuerto muy bien.

I got a single room with AC and a private bathroom I just felt it was priced a bit high.

The facilities lack common areas, the music is great almost always reggae, it could be cleaner. Lots of flow of people throughout the night. (Flights coming in and flights out)

Super loud at night, crowded rooms. Perfect if you wanna just spend the night before a flight because of their free airport shuttles! Worth the money.

It is so noisy from the cars passing on the streets all night long. I was under the impression of sleeping on the sidewalk. The window couldn' t be shut down. Slept only 2 hours.

Great experience especially free airport pickup and helpful great staff

Pratique pour une arrivée à l'aéroport. Lits peu confortable. Grande vitres sur un puits de lumière qui éclaire la pièce au tôt le matin. Lits en métal avec une échelle amovible. Nous avions une échelle pour 3 lits du haut. Pas pratique.

It has no kitchen. It's very clean. The beds and bathroom are clean. There's no common area. It's really only suitable for one night if you need to get to the airport, and nothing more. It has hot water.

+ Free Airport Shuttle a few times a day + Friendly employee who bored me a bowl for my breakfast + 4 bed room with own bathroom with hot shower - No kitchen at all and so no possibility to prepare own food - Beds are very old and not comfy at all - Very loud outside the hostel

Great place for airport. If I was going to Costa Rica again, I might stay here and do one bus trip into San Jose for sightseeing and this hostel as my base.
