We had the chance to meet with beautiful people and share parts of our trip with them. The place is very well located, but the area is quite busy and get somehow quite noisy with traffic noise in the background. ##### LAURA Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Erika Feb 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The concept is interesting.

Super convenient location, very clean and comfy bed, warm shower, staff helpful and breakfast included with ease. Downside: noisy road, lots of dust and exhaust fumes. However, if you’re staying here it’s likely because you want the central location and it’s right in the centre so it’s perfect. Wouldn’t stay if I had a car. The kitchen facilities could also do with updating: better pans and more fridge space. ##### Olivia Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### K Mar 30, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Great for the solo female traveller As a female traveller, I felt completely safe here and would definitely stay again if I'm ever back in Monteverde. Great place for a solo traveller with a communal kitchen to help keep down expenses of eating out. WiFi in all the rooms. Staff were extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful 😊 My only complaint would be the floors in my room hadn't been cleaned (but in fairness it's a 2 star hostel, not a 5 star hotel). Make sure you have some flip flops or slippers for the room and then its not a problem 👌 ##### K Stayed 6 nights in Mar 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Ronald Feb 11, 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities I understand that this is a budget hotel, but I have to admit we were disappointed. First off, the photos online were misleading regarding the standard rooms with bath. It turns out that our room was small, dingy and run down. We ended up going elsewhere after a couple nights. The bed was hard and uncomfortable. Housekeeping service is apparently only on Saturday. It was fairly noisy, but that was expected since we were centrally located. On the positive side, the location was good, staff was as friendly and as helpful as possible. The breakfast was generous and good. The communal kitchen seems to function quite well, and there was room in the lobby to hang out or eat. We prepaid and were not offered any refund options when we asked (our fault for prepaying). In short, this hotel might work well for the price providing you know what you’re in for. Again, better photos would help. ##### Ronald Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rohit Dec 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Nice place to stay, more then expected ##### Rohit Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marie Apr 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This place was great for our family.

Beds are comfortable (but bring your own pillows). ##### Meredith Stayed 1 night in Apr 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary Feb 21, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Wonderful hostel, lots of people, glad we had a private room. Staff really helpful, especially MJ. Loved the free breakfast with donations for the community. Santa Elena & Monteverde have many activities to offer, in town & surrounding area. ##### Mary Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Costa Verde](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Hotel-Costa-Verde.h5580910.Hotel-Information) > > [Cottages Ontario](https://www.expedia.ca/Ontario-Cottages.d11178-aaCottages.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Fiesta Resort Central Pacific - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Barranca-Hotels-Fiesta-Resort-Central-Pacific-All-Inclusive.h692315.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott Vacation Club at Los Suenos](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaco-Hotels-Marriott-Vacation-Club-At-Los-Suenos.h60169844.Hotel-Information) > > [Igloo Beach Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-IGLOO-BEACH-LODGE.h46091182.Hotel-Information) > > [Si Como No Resort, Spa and Wildlife Refuge](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Si-Como-No-Resort.h1321388.Hotel-Information) > > [Bosque del Cabo Rain Forest Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Puerto-Jimenez-Hotels-Bosque-Del-Cabo-Rain-Forest-Lodge.h11886299.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Buffalo](https://www.expedia.ca/Buffalo-Hotels.d602674.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotel San Bada Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Hotel-San-Bada.h4247464.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Nantipa - A Tico Beach Experience](https://www.expedia.ca/Cobano-Hotels-Hotel-Nantipa-A-Tico-Beach-Experience.h28413626.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Naoz](https://www.expedia.ca/Manuel-Antonio-Hotels-Hotel-Naoz.h74524806.Hotel-Information) > > [La Vela Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-La-Vela-Boutique-Hotel.h11881555.Hotel-Information) > > [La Mariposa Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-La-Mariposa-Hotel.h119352.Hotel-Information) > > [Incredible Tropical Retreat Full of Monkeys, Sloths, Toucans and much more ](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Incredible-Tropical-Retreat-Full-Of-Monkeys.h19220284.Hotel-Information) > > [Tango Mar Beachfront Boutique Hotel & Villas](https://www.expedia.ca/Cobano-Hotels-Tango-Mar-Beachfront-Boutique-Hotel-Villas.h903960.Hotel-Information) > > [The LINQ Hotel & Casino – A Caesars Rewards Destination](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-The-LINQ-Hotel-Experience.h8753178.Hotel-Information) > > [Los Suenos Marriott Ocean & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaco-Hotels-Los-Suenos-Marriott-Ocean-Golf-Resort.h522999.Hotel-Information) > > [Shana by the Beach Manuel Antonio](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Shana-By-The-Beach-Manuel-Antonio.h2351763.Hotel-Information) > > [Tulemar Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Tulemar-Resort.h12685352.Hotel-Information) > > [El Faro Containers Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-El-Faro-Containers-Beach-Hotel.h8249200.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Punta Leona](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaco-Hotels-Hotel-Punta-Leona.h486442.Hotel-Information) > > [Arenas Del Mar Beachfront & Rainforest Member of the Cayuga Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Quepos-Hotels-Arenas-Del-Mar-Beachfront-Rainforest-Member-Of-The-Cayuga-Collection.h1484897.Hotel-Information) > > [Barceló Tambor](https://www.expedia.ca/Paquera-Hotels-Barcelo-Tambor.h795208.Hotel-Information) > > [Ylang Ylang Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Cobano-Hotels-Ylang-Ylang-Beach-Resort.h32536597.Hotel-Information) ### Flights ### Packages > [All inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations)
