Overall a decent hostel to stay for few nights. But they still can improve a lot. A small thing like free water refill is an example to improve

It was for flight arrival in evening. The mattress was too hard for me and the shared bathroom needs updating. Ok for one night.

4/10 Fair

Inspected both beds after checking in and found that the smaller of two mattresses was covered with hundreds of tiny bloodstains from either a current or past bedbug infestation. We immediately left.

Solo Trip
I traveled alone to Costa Rica. I had booked the taxi service a week in advance and had a confirmation sent via email, but when I arrived at the airport, no one was waiting for me. I had to call the guesthouse and they immediately sent someone to pick me up. It was about a 15 minute wait time. The hotel staff was very friendly and helped me book tours in advance. They also were very helpful in giving me walking directions. My room was very clean. The shared bathrooms were clean most of the times. Usually if I got in late the bathrooms were a bit dirty. However, I took flip flops and used the shower without problems. They provide soap and towels; all other items must be taken by you. The area looks a bit shady but you can walk without problems. Overall, it was an amazing stay for my solo trip.

Fine for a night
This place is fine for a night and for the price. One of the staff members was very helpful and gave us info about buses, the other didn't seem like she wanted to be there or attend to guests at all. The room was fine but the corridor it's was on and room was very dark. The bed was ok but not that comfortable, being able to feel the springs. Place was clean and shared bathrooms had hot water showers. Little seating area in reception to chill in with free tea and coffee. Good location walkable to Barrio Escalante for meals/drinks/coffee.
