It's done very nicely and the environment feels welcoming. Very short walk from the Tracopa bus station. The kitchen is well-equipped and tidy. The hostel was like a treat after a long trip from Panama. I also had a dorm for myself for that night so I rested a lot. Thank you!

Staying in wooden house surrounded by jungle, nature, animals sounds, flying birds and all the green around was amazing! View from the balcony is spectacular, we relaxed and had a great time, even saw a Tuckan very very close :) kitchen is well equipped, we didn’t lack anything and felt very comfortable. Swimming pool was clean and kids had a lot of fun there :) 10/10, worth recomanding! As an advantage I can add closeness of Nauyaca Waterfalls, if anyone is planning a visit, the bungalow is a perfect location.

Me and my husband stay here everytime we come to San Jose . We have stayed here probably 10 times ( we live in Costa Rica and come to San Jose for shopping for our business ) I LOVE this hotel. It is clean, good location, private parking , and an incredible deal for the price you pay. I 10000000% recommend this hotel! I will never stay anywhere else when coming to San Jose . I always ask for a certain floor to stay on and they accommodate me everytime . We have a future booking reserved for next month already! See you soon
