Boasting a bar, the hostel is close to several noted attractions, around 100 metres from Monteverde Orchid Garden and around 1.9 km from Monteverde Ecological Sanctuary. The accommodation features evening entertainment and a shared kitchen.

The location of the property is very central! Plus, you have the restaurant right on your door step as well as the coffee shop which opens at 5am (in case you need to wake up early). The staff that works there is the best I've seen so far! So helpful and caring! TATIANA helped me to choose the best tours in Monteverde and she booked everything for me (including pick up etc.) I'm beyond grateful to her for recommending me to do El Tigre Waterfall hike! It definitely was a highlight of my trip!!! The room was as expected and as shown on the pictures. Very clean! And they also provide spare blankets in case you need some, which is great! Plus, the have a complementary coffee at the property.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    The hosts were very helpful organising tours and transportation. The hostel is very cheap with a well equipped kitchen, lots of fridge space and there were even a cat and a hostel bunny. The rooms and bathroom were clean and you were provided with a sheet and a warm blanket as well a towel.

    Excellent staff and hosts One of the best kitchens I have seen in any hostel Great common area Very clean Comfortable room, and clean bath room with hot showers While the main bus terminal is a ten minutes walk, the public bus from Monteverde to San Jose stops at a place one minute away from the hostel. Hence there is no need to go to the main bus terminal Very safe and access is secured by keys to the Hall and then to the room Lockers available for storing any valuables Great value for money
