  • Very friendly and helpful is how would describe Magdalena and her staff. Safe, clean and tranquil is how I would describe the hostel. After I arrived at Nomadas I could see I made a great choice, by choosing this hostel that is in a nice centrally located neighborhood, rather than in a downtown tourist hostel.

  • I stayed at Nomadas at the beginning and end of my trip through Costa Rica, and I really felt so at home there! The owners are wonderful and made themselves available for any sort of help that I needed. Great atmosphere and definitely the cleanest hostel I've stayed in, it's just a little out of the way from the rest of the city. Highly recommend it!
