Perfect place for one night stay. Was very basic facilities, private room was very big though so lots of space to organise. Couldn’t organise shuttle to La Fortuna through the hostel but they were good at getting taxi to airport when the free shuttle timing didn’t work out.

Comfortable night stay before flying out! The front desk attendants were great and we had a wonderful stay! The shuttle to the airport was really easy and convenient.

Loved that it’s 24hr check in, I had transportation issues and didn’t even up getting to the hostel till 11pm and had to leave on the 4:10am shuttle for the airport so it was the most convenient stop to get a quick nap in, wash up and head out.

Great! 5 min taxi from the SJO airport. We arrived late at night bc our flight landed at 11pm, and we were greeted easily upon arrival. We even could stash our luggage for a few hours in a locked room after checkout.

As hostels go, this was actually nice. Yes… basic though spacious rooms with a reclining chair ( I reserved a private room ). Extremely reasonably priced for a private room with en suite bath. Bathroom was decent & good water pressure. The bed was surprisingly comfortable. The gentlemen at the front counter were extremely polite and helpful. This is very centrally located in Alajuela, walking distance to most everything. The rooftop bar is delightful. Decent food, cold beer, good cocktails. Would not hesitate to stay again, if back I return to Alajuela Cheers Sas

Great place to spend a night close by the airport after the arrival and waiting for the next day transfer to the hotel, or while waiting for the flight when returning home. Literally five minutes from the airport... And the shuttle service they have is free. Rooms are basic and clean. There is a restaurant and a bar at the fourth floor. Was nice to see young people having fun... The first room we stayed in was facing the street, so there was some noise from the outside. The inside the building facing room was quiet. The staff was very friendly and the room price was great.

Love this place, glad it’s open again. The rooftop bar is super fun with some great local color.

Booked it for an airport stopover as it was close (6mins to airport) and the cheapest I could find - still 50$ a night though!! It was very noisy - paper thin walls letting in all the road noise but also the sound of people ********** next door. It felt seedy and dirty
