Costa Rica Backpackers was our very first hostel experience. Our plane was over an hour late and the driver waited for us, which was so great! Upon our arrival, the staff was extremely helpful and nice. We only stayed there for one night and half the next day, but the atmosphere was laidback and relaxing. We'd return in a heartbeat! Thank you Lori and Cheryl Edmonton, Alberta, Canada

This hostel was not exactly what I was expecting, it felt safe with the security guard out front but it was not extremely clean.

Met some very cool people here. Not the plushest accommodation ever, but who could argue with a pool taken straight from a 70\'s porn set....
