Great location close to everything in the town. We had private room with toilet and shower, really appreciated the mosquito net. There’s a fully equipped kitchen and also place to store your food and nice chill out area. Also lots of daily tips what you can do :)

“A nice hostel, but beware no aircon.”

Staff were friendly and helpful. Cheap rental bikes are available. It is in a good location near the center of town and close to the beach.

We stayed at 3 places in Puerto Viejo, and this place was the best of them all. Super-helpful young people working there and a lot of nice other packpackers to chat to. They could recommend a lot of nice things to do, they rent out bicycles and also arrange trips and shuttle to other places. If I go back, I will definitely stay here again.
