My stay at the hostel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, although a bit pricier than others, had its own charming terrace which was a nice touch for relaxing with a drink. On the downside, the room fell short of my expectations.

The room had its own 'terrace' which was a lovely spot to unwind, but it was ultimately disappointing.

The dining experience was satisfactory, especially with the bonus of homemade bread that kicked off my mornings well. However, the buffet based on weight may not be everyone's preference.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were hilariously small, with barely any space to move around, but on the bright side, they were spacious and comfortable. The service was not the most friendly, and I had to wait a lot, however, the location was perfect with easy access to transportation and some amenities. The dining options were limited, though the food quality was good. The facilities were decent overall.

The hotel is nestled in a lovely spot with plenty of space around the pool, offering a chance to spot monkeys and toucans. The rooms are huge and well-located by the forest, providing a serene ambiance. However, the service is youthful and could be more professional.

I found the hotel to be in a lovely location, close to Manuel Antonio park, restaurants, and the beach. The rooms, although on the small side, were not in the best shape and seemed a bit neglected. The service was top-notch with a very helpful staff offering assistance with tours and more. However, the dining experience left something to be desired with slow food replenishing at the buffet breakfast.

I had a mixed experience at the hostel. Despite the extremely noisy environment throughout the night, there were brief moments of calm between 4 am and 6 am. Unfortunately, my room on the bottom level was plagued by a strong damp smell. On the bright side, the shutters, shower pressure, and warmth were satisfactory, and they did resemble the pictures online.

I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at the hostel. Despite being on the bottom level and dealing with a damp smell, the room had lots of cute touches like art and a functional record player. It was spacious and located in a lovely spot with plenty of space around the pool where you could spot a few monkeys and toucans. The location was convenient for getting to Manuel Antonio park, restaurants, and the beach, surrounded by nice restaurants. The service was very polite and helpful, although there was a moment of eye-rolling. The dining experience, while not perfect, offered amazing food at reasonable prices. Overall, a great value for the money.

The hotel has a spacious room, but noise from the bar restaurant below might disturb sleep on weekends. There were maintenance issues like a leaking water tap throughout my stay. The service was excellent but lacked attention to cleaning details. The location is convenient with easy access to transportation. The dining offered healthy and delicious options.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfortable with a nice private terrace, and I felt secure and relaxed. However, the pricing seemed a bit on the expensive side. The service was friendly and informative, although there were issues with unexpected loud parties. The location was great, bordering the national park and offering a jungle-like garden setting. The dining was tasty, especially the homemade bread, but it was based on weight, which was a downside. Overall, a good experience with some room for improvement.
