Property is far away from anything. Wasn't able to leave early because the gate way locked. There was a dog that was biting my leg the whole time I was there until I went into my room. The place is basically a shack, and the floor in the room was pealing. This is the worst place I've ever stayed at.

You should look for a high class hotel, i think you just find a cheap place thinking you where gonna be in a palace..... we offer simple rooms, clean rooms, nice vibe and cheap price. Just to let you know we are 15 mins away from the 2 of nicest beaches around and 7 mins away from the center of Tamarindo. You payed 20 so i think you should be more serious when you talk about Hostel Real. Blacky (the dog) its a puppy and only wanted to play with you but obviously you are not friendly and hate animals.....I'm sorry you invest your time on this review just to talk about bad things and never even mention one single good aspect. thank you for your time and hope you the best!
This is like a second home for me every time I come to Costa Rica. This is my third visit and I’ll definitely be back again. The location is great, the beds are comfortable and the facilities are very clean. I would highly recommend.
I booked because it said private room with A/C but got there and A/C didn’t work and dan didn’t work
They had another room with A/C so i ended up paying another 27.00 for the that as it was 32C ….
Place is ok but actually not in Tamarindo out about 10kms

Pepe was an amazing host. He not only catered to my lodging needs but also gave myself and a guest an incredible surf experience. He was so helpful with sharing details about town and giving us all the information we needed to have a great time. I truly appreciation his advice and hosting of myself and my 5 family members.
