Very friendly staff who were super accommodating — they extended checkout time by 90 minutes when I needed to work remotely from a quiet place. The breakfast was nice -- make-your-own eggs and pancakes -- and the common areas were great to hang out in. One word of caution: They didn't have a record of my Expedia reservation when I arrived, so if at all possible, call and confirm they've received it.

Frustrating
I know this is by no means an actual hotel, however, they should have their systems in place. We got to the hostel at 3:30am and they had no clue about our reservation, I showed the Expedia confirmation and the representative looked into the system to finally let us know there were no room available for us. We had to leave at almost 4am to try and find accommodations in another hotel. If you are booking this place, make sure you contact them before, that was my first red flag when I called earlier that day and nobody seemed to know anything about my reservation but at the end they confirmed it was good.

A little hard to find but worth the effort
This place surprised us pleasantly. The price is amazing for the experience we got, bringing our Costa Rica adventure to an end with a fantastic experience. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. When we arrived, we were exhausted from our trip and just wanted to sleep, but since we met such great people here, we ended up only getting 3 hours of sleep before we had to leave for our early flight. Wished we could have stayed a few more nights, it would surely have led to some very enjoyable moments.. If you come here with a smile on your face, you will surely leave with an even bigger one.

More Like a Flop House...Never Again!
I am well travelled and have stayed at many Hostels. While the staff made up of "20 Somethings" were cordial, don't expect much. The smell must and marijuana penetrates the air: I, myself, saw no real breakfast, and the location is very far out of the way for most activities. My room had bed bugs causing me to dump most of my clothes prior to coming home, although they did provide another room. Also, there is no hot water. Finally, the music was so loud it was difficult to sleep. Maybe I'm just too old for this type of stay. If you arenin your 20's, looking for a crash pad, maybe it will work out fine for you.

Took over 4 hours to check in, staff never said would take that long. Wasted a day sitting there. Said we had to leave early. They wanted our keys to move cars around in tiny parking space. At 5 in the morning we were blocked in, none of the staff knee anything even though they all said they saw the note. Had to go around waking up people to see if these were their cars to move.

No estaba mi reserva tal cual la realicé en la página. Y la primer noche, me tuve que quedar en otra habitación. Dejé 10 dólares para mi reserva de la llave, cuando salí, no encontraron mi sobre con el dinero de la reserva y me dieron el dinero en colones.

Sympa pour une nuit
Nous avons choisi cette auberge de jeunesse en fonction car il est précisé sur l'annonce que l' hôtel est proche d'une navette pour l 'aéroport. En fait il n'y en a pas . Nous avons utilisé les services d'Uber pour 1800 colonnes. Le petit déjeuner est copieux et l'accueil agréable.

La peor estancia en un hotel que eh tenido
Terrible desde que llegamos hasta que salimos, no es definitivamente lo que esperaba ni lo que uno puede ver en las fotos es un ambiente muy hippie y descuidado totalmente, el desayuno debes cocinarte lo tu mismo, las habitaciones super sucias, lo único bueno seria la ubicasion.

Fatal, había demasiado ruido del bar y discotecas cercanas y no pude dormir en toda la noche. Además en la cama había pelos y las sábanas tenía suciedad.
