Great Hostel, however they are doing construction right now. Not everything is up and running and I was woken up at 7am to constuction noise. Aside from all that...loved it.Great Hostel, however they are doing construction right now. Not everything is up and running and I was woken up at 7am to constuction noise.

The shared rooms are a little cramped and a bit stinky, but the private rooms were fine and i would recommend these. The hostel is really a cool place to hang and meet fellow travelers. Also a great place to figure out your next travel ideas/adventuresThe shared rooms are a little cramped and a bit stinky, but the private rooms were fine and i would recommend these.

Great hostel! Really clean, excellent food, very helpful staff and great facilities - the terrace is awesome. Really safe place to stay in San Jose, would definitely recommend it.Great hostel!

Good location as its a quik walk from the market and main pedestrian street. Be sure to use the hostel airport service saved us 2 dollars and was convenient. This place would be more fun in the busy season, was kinda quiet in november.Good location as its a quik walk from the market and main pedestrian street.

I was a Little disappointed in the Hostel itself, on the website it looked so amazing and had all these Fun Activities listed to do there, but when we arrived most of those features were in the process of being developed or repaired... There was no Movie theater, the Mechanic bull was Not up and running like the Website stated it was, but it was really safe and clean with helpful staff members and a Decent pool... I guess we just traveled thru when they were not in season at the time...I was a Little disappointed in the Hostel itself, on the website it looked so amazing and had all these Fun Activities listed to do there, but when we arrived most of those features were in the process of being developed or repaired...

SanJose is not an ideal destination but the hostel was impressivily well appointed, with excellent and friendly staff, relativily clean (I wasn´t that pleased with my bed nor sheets), and offered A LOT to do within (tons of interent stations, bar, restraurant , game room, lounges, views, and most of all atmosphere). I would heartily recommend this hostel to anyone.SanJose is not an ideal destination but the hostel was impressivily well appointed, with excellent and friendly staff, relativily clean (I wasn´t that pleased with my bed nor sheets), and offered A LOT to do within (tons of interent stations, bar, restraurant , game room, lounges, views, and most of all atmosphere).

it got very cold at night/in the mornings in the rooms, so the very thin sheets given as blankets were not sufficient. also, felt like i was being nickled and dimed for everything. in comparison to a place like pencion santa elena in monteverde where the prices were similar, pencion was much friendly and considerate of traveler's needs, and less penny-pinching. it got very cold at night/in the mornings in the rooms, so the very thin sheets given as blankets were not sufficient. also, felt like i was being nickled and dimed for everything. in comparison to a place like pencion santa elena in monteverde where the prices were similar, pencion was much friendly and considerate of traveler's needs, and less penny-pinching. ...Close   Read Owner Comments
