Hard to find. Locals and other hostels/hotels have never heard of Hostel Toruma, which is a shame. We really enjoyed this place. Great food at their outside restaurant. I recommend the private bedroom with private bath. Hot water didn't always work.

The staff was very friendly and protective. They gave great assistance and advice on navigating the city. They actually worked to save me money on the airport shuttle by pairing me with other riders! You will be a short walk from the grocery, bank, internet cafe, and downtown market areas. There are buses and a train literally outside the door to take you anywhere in the country. I had a great time!

I would not walk through the neighborhood at night but it's centrally located near downtown markets, clean, secure and very friendly! I would stay there again.

Great place that was quiet and clean. Very helpful staff. I stayed here 4 seperate nights during a 11 night trip to costa rica.

Toruma is a fine place to stay -- it gets the job done. But it's not terribly exciting or social -- people don't talk to one another and the staff is not very friendly. But it's a safe, clean, fine place to stay in San Jose with a 15-minute walk to the main area and a shuttle service to the airport.
