Honestamente no lo recomiendo, trato pesado desde el inicio por ejemplo la aplicación indica que tiene parqueo pero por reservar por hostel el administrador te reclama diciendo que el mochilero no anda en carro, cocina y piscina sucia de verdad da asco el agua de la piscina, el lugar tenía ratas en nuestra habitación se escuchaban todas corriendo y chillando en el techo de un lado al otro de hecho llegamos a ver 2 de manera personal, personalmente pésima experiencia

This hotel is pretty nice for a decent price and is in a brilliant location, an easy walk to the main shopping area and very close to the beaches. The owner is also lovely. The bathroom in the dorm room could be nicer with some fresh paint, and I think the beds in the dorm would benefit from having curtains around each bed to provide some privacy. I loved that each bed had a drawer underneath it to put my stuff, and the room itself is very spacious.

CAREFUL! THEY ARE GOING TO TAKE YOUR MONEY! THEY WILL ROB YOU. Terrible service, there is an open sewage pipe, so the smell is foul and full of mosquitoes. The kitchen is a dump with three dishes. There is no toilet paper, NO SHOWERS. The pool is a birdbath (not one person used it). He has poorly groomed and smelly dogs. There are no lockers. The worst of all is that they take your money. When you arrive they charge you more than what HostelWorld says, they respond rudely to continue stealing

Economical option for staying in town. This means being on the busy road and hearing the loud music on Tues and Thursday. Fortunately the dorm room is in the rear. It has one large bathroom with a sauna tub for showering but drain was plugged. No other shared toilets. Smal functional kitchen. Pool And outdoor seating is great for cooling down. Dorm has ac but door knobs not fully functional. Undergoing renovation and should be better soon. A mother dog and 7 pups plus cat. No lockers or coffee

Used to be an old hotel but the new owners are making repairs and its turning super nice. And the location couldn't be better, is close to downtown next to a bus stop, in front of Puerto Viejo beach and Salsa Brava bar, and 10 minutes walking to Cocles beach. The staff always there to help, thanks a lot to Luciano, Anais & the rest! Will be back :)
