Absolutely recommendable
Pros: The hostel feels very much like a second home, the people living and volunteering here were extremely friendly and always ready to help! The beach is a 5-10min walk from the hostel and the environment is safe. The owner explained us about the plans for the future, which I’m sure has great potential! Absolutely recommend the place!
Cons: There is some small improvements to be made in terms of equipment and the rooms, however, the hostel is actively working on that from what I have seen.

Tranquility, freshness and friendliness
Pros: We really enjoyed our stay at this hostel! As two girls, we felt safe! The rooms were very well organized and comfortable, each bed having its own fan. Lockers were available. The host is always there if you have any questions or concerns. The hostel is mostly open so you can enjoy the fresh air from the kitchen or the terrasse. The kitchen was supplied with all needed utensils. There are 3 dogs in the hostel, really sweet and well trained from what we saw! The downtown area and touristic beach is 15-20min walk from the hostel, but there is another beach at 7min walk (great sunrise spot). Would definitely recommend:)
Cons: A little bit far from downtown, but we liked the tranquility of the place:) Not many activities organized at the hostel, but a lot is going on downtown!

Beautiful and chill hostel with friendly staff and travelers for my time in Samara.
Pros: I loved this hostel. The staff and volunteers were super friendly, and so were the other travelers I met. It's a short walk to the beach, and a decent walk into town. I was able to get around fine without a car or moto. I had a private room, which, for the price, was awesome. I would definitely stay here again.
Cons: My only feedback would be that the bathrooms could get messy quickly; they could have been attended to more, but nothing out of the ordinary.

Pros: The owners were extremely helpful & always ready to suggest place to go & thing to do.
Cons: Nothing really obviously in life there's always room for improvement more lights in the dorm maybe charging points by every bed like in other hostels with a little shelf for your phone, water, book that sort of thing.

Pros: Have stayed here before and will stay again! This place just has such a good vibe going: lots of space for everyone to chill, a big, well equipped kitchen which is a hub of friendly guests, stable internet for working, a little 'pod' bed with own fan which feels a luxury because you can step aside and sleep any time you want, not possible in other dorms. Best of vibes going out to the owners for making this hostel a true Pura Vida experience : )
Cons: Love this place

Cosy hostel
Pros: The owner is really friendly and the hostel is just a few minutes' walk from a quiet part of the beach, which is great. There's a well-priced Soda around the corner with great food, and the hostel is in a quiet area. I really liked that the beds had curtains, charging ports and fans!
Cons: I think the kitchen should have some lighters that allow you to light the stoves from a distance, as it makes a really big flame and is a bit dangerous to use a normal lighter. The area around my bed was also quite dusty, which I think could be cleaned a bit better.

Woodstock hostel exceeded my expectations and if I'll ever come back to CR, I will certainly return
Pros: What an amazing hostel! The open kitchen, where you feel like you are almost preparing food in the jungle, the comfortable seating/laying area on the upper floor of the hostel, and the owner is a super friendly and chill dude!
Cons: It is a little outside of the village and here and there it could have been a bit cleaner, but that did not really bother me, it's wasn't dirty!
