Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: It is obvious that the owner has put a lot of thought into this fairly new hostel. The kitchen is very clean, has a toaster, a microwave and a large fridge for guest. There is free drinking water available. The bathroom is very nice with spacious showers and toilets. Great water pressure and hot water. There is even a hairdryer for those who need one. The beds in the dorm are very comfortable and have good mosquito nets. Each bed has its own fan, power outlet, light and curtains. The windows are always open but are covered with good quality mosquito mesh. Everything is well maintained and very clean. The hostel is surrounded by jungle and has a very nice garden. It is also very quiet here except for the noises that the animals make. It is very easy to meet other travellers here and there are a lot of spaces to relax. All in all it is just a very good hostel and I was happy that I stayed here. Be aware though that this is no party hostel. People come here because it is so peaceful and for being surrounded by Costa Rica's beautiful nature.
