I stayed at this hostel on 8 different occasions in the last 2 years. This was the first time in a private room and was very, very happy with it. Room was spacious, comfortable and very clean. I noticed that the comunal area on the top floor , however, looked unloved. No more microwave, no more guest fridge. Not a shelf available. Although in the past I have prepared basic meals there, I couldn’t, now. Still an excellent place to spend the night, though. And the guys at reception are just the best!

My First Choice Of Hostel In San Jose
I go to San Jose several times a year and i have been on this hotel/hostel twice now. Their shared room is very clean, beds are comfortable and it is unlike other hostels i have been too. Best thing is their very affordable rate that even includes breakfast. Highly recommended.
View from the 5th floor (Common Room)
The common room which is very spacious by the way.
Love their walls..
You can hang-out and watch TV if you dont want to play games.
