IMPORTANT INFO
Please note check-in times are from 11 AM, make sure you set up your arrival time correctly.

The cleanest hostel you would find in San Jose, Costa Rica. Couldn't be in a better location near by banks, supermarkets, main street in san jose, largest park in san jose, 10 minutes walk to downtown and 2 blocks away from the bus stop to/from the international airport.

Notice: Some taxi drivers say we are full or that they dont know were we are located, they do this as they would try to take you to another hostel where they get commissions form, so if this happens to you just tell him you have a reservation here, we´ll hlod the room untill you show up.

We offer different type of rooms such as singles, doubles and dorms. You'll get free internet 24/7, Wi-Fi zone, free coffee and tea all day. Kitchen facilities, TV room with cable TV, books to read in your free time, free security boxes, free storage room, hot showers, linen included, hammocks to relax in our garden, all within a very clean and lovely house!

We provide transport to and from the airport at a rate lower than that of regular taxis. $20 for the ride up to 4 people, goups of 5 or more $6 per person.
We also offer tours to volcanoes, beaches, canopy,rafting,waterfalls and much more with the lowest rates!
Come here and feel like at home in a very familiar environment! Get to meet other travellers as well as our very nice and bilingual staff!
