Not our first stay, nice place !

Pros: Not our first time in this hostel : the staff is very sweet, the place is very well located and the breakfast nice (local gallo pinto, omelet, fruits…). We stayed in the dorm which is fine for the night with curtains and plugs for everyone. The owner will give you great advice (what to see, where to go and how) if you take the time to ask.

Great location , comfy and amazing Staff

Pros: Ultra helpful. I left my phone in my Uber. Caesar helped me so much. He even went to the friver to collect my phone. It is very central. Close to Tica Terminal. Bus stops and town. Also supermarkets Comfortable but pullows need upgrading. Some rooms do jot have charging points for cellphones and computers. I was however moved to a nice room with points after one night. You can buy Liberty sims and recharge. Laundry services Coffee on tap Water on tap Quiet and friendly.

Cons: No charging points next to bed 1st night and pillows thin and not comfy. The throw was also very rough and not comfy but suffcient. Still good value for Money.
