Very shabby and kitchen not very well appointed and grubby.. It's the only hostel where found cockroaches in the bathroom, bedroom and kitchen.

Hosts were friendly and there were lots of animals.

Ok stay. They have a nice garden but everything is in not so good condition. Rooms are really small and old and it is not a real ac and its very noisy. The staff was pretty good and booked us a really good tour in corcovado.

Room was ok but not the cleanest. Could do with a lick of paint and a dust of the side table. Air con positioned above bed so had to stand on bed to adjust. Kitchen not the greatest as didn't seem to be cleaned at night and if getting up early was locked from the inside so had to ask to get in to make drink.

Beautiful garden which is underused. Lots of wildlife seen there. Good location, near airport and 10 minute walk to the bus stop and pier. 5 minutes to main shops. Mini market opposite with ok prices

Kitchen not very clean, rooms neither, only one toilet/shower for a room of 8. Little information about about what to do etc

Kitchen, beds are comfortable, AC in the room The people at the reception are nice, I could check-in at 8AM and even get a little sleep (the rooms were already cleaned due to the low season)

Proximity of nature Nice garden

The room and en-suite was fairly basic but it was clean and the gardens were beautiful with plenty of seating.

It’s a really beautiful hostel, it has a lovely shared kitchen area and beautiful gardens surrounding the whole hotel where nature comes to you! During our stay we saw many different types of birds including macaws as well as a sloth. Also the room comes with aircon which is an absolute must in the Osa peninsula. They also have drinkable water on site.

Room very old and rundown. Jungle tour sold at the reception was very good but not as described beforehand.

Jungle surrounding. Friendly staff.

Didn’t have WiFi in the room. Room too far away from the common areas. The guy at the check in desk was not welcoming.

Location. Kitchen fully equipped and common areas. Surrounded by nature and animals.

The dormitory without air conditioning is hell. Super hot, toilet doesn’t lock, sink falls apart.

Garden, animals in the garden, fire in the garden. Kitchen

Room was cramped and hot. Tough to get a good night sleep in but affordable.

Beautiful grounds

Quite basic but matched the price

Value for money

Saw a cockroach and a crab walking around the room, but understandable given it is in a jungle area. Not many people in the hostel to socialize (I only saw 4 people around in 3 days), but probably because I have been here in June and it is low season.

Good location as it is 5 minutes from the main street, completely surrounded by nature so it feels like being in a little jungle even just by walking around the hostel. Lovely staff, they helped me with choosing my next destination after Puerto Jimenez and gave me advice on other possible places to visit in Costa Rica while backpacking around the contry. Private bathroom inside the room and a locker available for each person in the room.

Bathroom very basic and would benefit from renovation.

Great location in mangrove forest. Can see monkeys and macaws.

Kitchen need so many things to be functional, at the price of the dorm maybe nice if you didn't had to make your own bed, little details.

Andrew and his wife were amazing, really like the garden space!

Staff were extremely welcoming and helpful!

could use some comfy chairs outside, and a hammock or two! it’s all hard wood seating. the room is quite small and could def use a fan, AC is fine but would rather not have to use it.

wonderful setting in a lush jungle filled with monkeys, (including one resident Spider monkey!) tons of birds, lots toucans and macaws up close, and a sleeping sloth up the tree, plus land crabs galore and a pesky raccoon in the kitchen. lovely place to hang in the garden! and enjoy some short trails into the back cabinas. great proximity to walk into town or to the ocean.

Very nice garden and excellent location!

The kitchen is very outdated and would benefit from new chopping boards, knives and cleaning supplies. All the cookwear were quite old and dirty, but other than that no complaints!

Location is very nice, the garden and surroundings are amazing!

Ac too loud Humid

Friendly staff

Stayed in March 2023

the staff was simply not friendly. there was no chance of circulation in our room. It smelled from the drains in the bathroom

it’s close to the port and close to a supermarket and bakery. enough parking lots

Stayed in March 2023

Fan was a bit useless in cooling down the room Shower squirted everywhere so unless you had it only slightly on it covered the entire bathroom in water

In an ideal location in the centre of puerto jiminez - value for money there can be no complaints as you get what you pay for

Most aspects of the kitchen were better than other places I stayed. But with most backpackers communal kitchen , cutting boards, scullery , and food prep area requires some improvement.

The owner , Jacki 's , , Costa Rican , courtesy and politeness is much appreciated. Also very helpful and informative. The garden and atmosphere was very relaxing and enjoyable. The responsible garbage disposable system in main kitchen is something all establishments should be doing.
