First we had a appartment with e door outside of the hotel. I'm not felt save. But the Staff gave me an orher room inside the hotel, this was so great!

I like the staff, the food and the beautiful interior of the hotel.

Hot water isn’t completely reliable. It can go cold & hot multiple times during a shower

The property has amenities available, like food & massage.

The food wasn’t the best,

Loved the location, live jazz music, our room and big tv!

Stayed in June 2023

An AC would be a good option on hot summer nights

Comfortable bed in the dorm with its own light, plugs and curtain for pricacy. Clean amenities. Nice staff. They organize shuttles to different locations in the country like once a day for affordable prices, and a shuttle to the airport for $20 every hour

There were a lot of leaks and the bathroom was out of order. On the Saturday night you could hear the music until quite late on in the evening but the other nights it was quiet. It’s not so much of a personal touch as I’ve had at other hostels, they don’t show you where anything is.

You always know what you get when you come to a Selinas, it looks nice, comfy room and great AC.

Nothing.

Nice social areas and food. Easy to organise transport to the airport.

Nothing, I thought it was good for a hostel stay.

The shared 4-person dorm was by reception so potentially a but noisy however it felt safe and comfortable. The breakfast was very good. overall it seemed good for a hostel stay.

well decorated and well maintained.

room could have been cleaner (hairs all over the bathroom, had to kill a roach)

great common areas and restaurante

Stayed in April 2023

They completely unnecessarily force you to download their app for "pre check-in". The room was noisy: poor sound insulation from the noise coming from the street and from the restaurant inside the hotel.

Clean hotel. Nice-looking restaurant. The location is ok, if you want to stay in the capital. They offered paid airport shuttle ($20). Good breakfast options.

I stayed in a single room and it was very small. There was hardly any room for my luggage.

As Selina hostels go, the hotel offers an incredible variety. Very nice staff, great coffee welcome apero, nice kitchen and bar, library and many nice niches to be alone. I also took part in a free salsa dance class.

- quite small room compared to other hostels - expensive for a hostel

- Nice coffee area - Bed curtains

none in particular.

common areas are well kept. Bathrooms are clean.

It can be noisy so ask for a quiet room

It’s a nice a friendly hostel but it was a bit noisy

Stayed in March 2023

Nice place, with lots of places to chill out. Beds had a curtain which was great for blocking out light and creating privacy - more places should do this. Lots of hot water, which was great.

Stayed here a few times in different dorms, the rooms were really warm with only a little ceiling fan to circulate air, especially bad in rooms without windows. A little expensive compared to other hostels. The kitchen only had one sharp knife to cut up anything which made meal times a little bit long.

Nice communal areas, big shared kitchen and comfortable beds. Really good location next to the centre.

Stayed in February 2023

make sure you get a room that is not attached to the common areas (I didn’t have that so was good). otherwise it can be disturbing

Nice mixed dorm room downstairs, with private bathroom. nice vibe, good location. friendly staff. nice kitchen. would recommend this place

Stayed in March 2023

The bathrooms could have been kept a little cleaner. Since they were shared they tended to smell a little musty. Nothing special.

A very small private room with a bathroom down the hall. The accommodation itself was basic but what makes this hostel nice are the shared common spaces, ex. the balcony, the yoga classes, the bar/breakfast area with live music, etc. It's in a safe neighborhood of San Jose and feels very walkable.

My hotel shuttle was never booked. I learned from the reception they don't do late-night shuttles but I was told via email that they had booked one for me. It turned out fine, just wish there was more clarity for next time.

I arrived late from the airport, I had a quiet room in a mixed dormitory. It was quiet and clean when I arrived.

it is expensive but that is to be expected with a Selina, the rooms are actually quite reasonably priced but the food is very pricey. the price would be an issue but it’s such a good hostel that you really feel that you get your money’s worth.

the best hostel in San Jose by far! it’s pricey but the rooms are so good it makes the high cost worth it. if you want to stay somewhere with privacy and comfort then this it the place to be! the curtains on the beds are something rare in Central America and they are perfect after a long journey. the food is fantastic but a main and a drink cost almost the same as my room for the night. the staff are amazing and so helpful, it was so good to see a security guard on duty during the night as many hostels in Costa Rica don’t have one. I have already booked to stay again as I felt so safe in a city known for being unsafe.

It was a little pricey and the tea coffee making facilities did not really work. Apart from that very good.

The size of the room, the TV, the bed. There was a nice ambience downstairs. I liked the shared spaces and the decor throughout the hotel.

Stayed in March 2023

The lockers in the room could be upgraded -- it was the old loud metal kind and not large enough to secure an entire load for most people, so many bags on the floor.

it's Selina... always consistent! Food and bar areas are nice. And the staff is great They also have nice spa packages! I got two awesome sports massages while there that included breakfast! if you're having an epic night to remember forever there's a tattoo artist on property!

Stayed in March 2023

my private room was so small that I hardly could stand next to my bed and suitcase 😅. My window was next to the social place which was not a success direct after my flight and time difference during a karaoke night. last but not least there was some old blood on the bedsheet. I really disliked this, but when I told the staff they luckily did something about it.

Friendly staff, lot of travelers and activities.

Stayed in March 2023

there’s not that much to do in San José - so use this as a launching pad!

layout lends itself well to meeting people and the staff get involved!
