Only thing in the room was a bed. Got a plastic chair from the lobby to put my bag on. A small table or even a shelf in the room would have been great to help sort through clothes and gear. Shared washrooms were not really maintained. Floors and countertops were constantly wet. People just don’t know how to clean up after themselves.

Convent location. Great restaurant on site.

AC in room would be a plus and a chair and small table would be nice

The rooms are like nothing I saw before🥴. Just a bed and a fan on the ceiling. The people are very nice . Breakfast is the best and it is 3 minutes from the beach and National park is 5 minutes walk.

Location

Stayed in March 2024

The showers are very basic in a common bathroom but did their job. Sadly there is no kitchen for the guests to use.

Booked a single room for two, it was clean and had a ceiling fan which saved our live. The included breakfast in the morning is very tasty and consists of gallo pinto, pancakes, fresh fruit and coffee.

The bathrooms are very limited, I recommend placing hangers in the showers o something to keep personal belongings there while showering. Recomend to also incorporate shelves or something to place belongings in the bedroom

Location and overall hotel layout. Private room for friends groups that were not couples. Air conditioning Bedroom cleaning

The bathroom for the private rooms was shared with the whole hostel and the water is cold for showering. The room could be cleaner and the ventilator needs adjustments.

The hostel is 3 min walk from the beach and 5 min walk from the Manuel Antonio national park's entrance. The food in the restaurant is great for people travelling on budget and delicious. The breakfast was very delicious and a mix of 2 dishes and lots of good coffee. Staff is very kind and helpful

No room or communal fridge available

Great location for national park. Quite. Nice shared bathroom/shower. We didn't book park tickets in advance and no tickets available on wedsite but they assisted in getting us in via an organized tour guide.

The rooms on the top floor were near unbearable for sleeping if the ceiling fan which rotates wasn’t blowing on you.

Great affordable restaurant. Very friendly staff. Great location. Clean rooms.

Amount of showers available too less for the people staying. Toilet cabin too small, legs are barely fitting. Shower pressure also not the best.

Really near the beach and the national park. Breakfast was nice and a good amount .

Nice location, excellent breakfast, very helpful staff.

The room we got had a tiny little fan. Not nearly enough to tide throught the terrible heat. We had to pay double for an AC room. I don't think overall it was great value for money considering tiny shared bathrooms and showers.

Location. Walking from the beach and entrance to the park. Staff was very helpful and warm. Restaurant within the property is a well known, well rated spot. The food is reasonably priced too and whatever we tried was pretty good.

If you can, ask for one of the upstairs rooms. They are surely cooler than the extremely hot downstairs room that we got which saves the courtyard and has no airflow. The shared bathroom wasn’t very clean.

Fantastic location, really friendly and helpful staff, great breakfast.

It's important to note that the rooms do not come with air conditioning, which might lead to some warmth during the night due to the high temperatures. However, there is one room with air conditioning available at an additional cost. I think the beds need to be changed, they are not the most comfy. There are no hairdryers available.

This is an ideal accommodation choice for those planning to visit the beach and Manuel Antonio Park. Its proximity to bars, a supermarket, and the delicious breakfast makes it even more appealing. I must emphasize the hospitality of Mr. Oscar, the owner. Thanks to him, I extended my stay for a couple of nights at a reasonable price, and he was incredibly kind. Even you do the check out and want to go to the beach you can use the toilet facilities and keep your stuff at the reception.

bathroom not clean and in need of update room very basic - nowhere to sit in or outside room, no small table to put anything, plug sockets very difficult to use

good location and good breakfast

We did not have easy access to a fridge but staff placed our leftovers into the kitchen fridge for us (this would not have worked had we had more than one small container). No parking but a man up the road allowed us to use his yard - this would not be guaranteed so if you have a car, this might prove to be a problem.

Staff were very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast (included) was delicious and a very generous portion. The location was close to the beach and to Manuel Antonio National Park, and felt very safe. Beds were firm and comfortable and the fan on the ceiling kept the room air circulating so it was comfortable to sleep (no air conditioning).

Room was very hot and muggy, and mosquitoes got in. None of this was under the control of the management.

Fantastic location, cool funky atmosphere. Very affordable.

The bedrooms are very small and not the cleanest just as well as the bathroom was very dirty. If you’re ok with the not so clean rooms the hostel is a good choice.

The restaurant is very nice, good prices and the food is delicious. The staff is super friendly as well and really try to make you a comfortable stay. Furthermore the location is great!

It's in a perfect location close to the entrance of Manuel Antonio park and beach. Breakfast is included and very good. Wifi is good. Very helpful staff. Hostel has also a restaurant in case for lunch and dinner or drinks. Rooms are very basic. And there's fan not AC. For me it wasn't a big deal.

Stayed in August 2023

Be sure to book a room with air conditioning. We were staying in a room only with a fan and it was crazy hot. Also, try to arrange your pickup or activities no earlier than 7:30am, because the breakfast is starting at 7:00am, no earlier! This Hostel has the tiniest toilets and showerrooms I have ever seen! Sometimes you need to leave the toilet door open, so that you can fit on the toilet. But as long as you expect something basic, small but still with a nice atmosphere, you are at the right place!

The staff was really nice and the food in the restaurant was really good! I liked the decor. Delicious breakfast!

No common area to chill and hang out.

Great location, beautiful surroundings, close to the beach, supermarket, shops and the bus station, not too much people, quite and chill, friendly staff, fans in the room.

Its just too hot! Even with a fan or two, the rooms are furnaces (and we're Australian, we have a good tolerance!) They have dorm rooms with AC which are likely to be great - book them!

This place is very beautiful, the restaurant is awesome, the staff are INCREDIBLE, the location is amazing!

-The shared bathrooms were fine except for the fact that there were only 2 toilets and 2 showers which were also shared with restaurant customers. I think the bathroom also needed more than 1 sink.

-I liked its location near to the beach, restaurants and shops. -The room was excellent value for money. -The restaurant served delicious food.

Wish there were more bathrooms available, only two toilets and two showers

The breakfast is substantial but very bland tasting, especially the pinto. Staff that serves breakfast is very friendly.

Feld quite cramped, with nowhere just to relax and chill besides the restaurant. The room got very hot

Location right next to the national park.
