This was a really good find. A strong location in the safe Sabana neighbourhood, you are literally minutes away from several fast food outlets and a large supermarket. The park is also steps away. The hostel itself is friendly, with helpful staff and a really nice vibe. We had only 2 issues - there was often a queue for the bathrooms and in some rooms the traffic noise at night is loud. Otherwise an excellent place to stay in San Jose, would definitely return.

Very clean, liked all the patios and outdoor areas. However, airport transfer seems to not exist as I and several other guests had varying degrees of problems with our airport pickups.

This place is close to the airport and offers a good setting for hanging out with other travellers. It's not in the best area, but the staff will help you steer clear of rougher streets. Their website says that breakfast is free, and the staff I asked about breakfast said there was breakfast, but I never say any food laid out, or signs on cabinets, or anything that suggested a free meal no matter what time I got up. If you're only passing through San Jose, this is still a good landing pad.

Great hostel in a great location in San Jose (close to downtown, yet in a quite enough street. The staff was quite helpful with different questions we had and the owners are great people.

The best place to spend a night in San Jose, not the closest you could be to the airport but it's about a $30 dollar cab away and puts you a few blocks from the main Coca Cola bus station. The staff is amazing, there's a ton of computers to use for free, very clean, great communal kitchen/living area complete with TV and wide selection of movies. Overall pretty much everything you want in hostel, too bad its in San Jose and not somewhere on the coast where you'd want to spend more time!
