Didn’t realize it was a hostel! Not a fan
Reviewed By fratacciAmazing place if you don’t plan to sleep lol! Booked a private room for 4 for our family and I didn’t like it whatsoever : no privacy as it was on thé way across from the communal kitchen and absolutely NOT quiet with people yapping super early am up to late night in that open kitchen. This explains why they gave us so many earplugs smh! Then thé bar played loud music with deep bass until past 11pm. There were 4 bunk beds -that looked like concentration camp ones- and a full bed. Anyhow it’s great for single young travelers that travel alone and can sleep for cheap in any condition. That’s not me lol!

Dissapointing (avoid cylinders!)
Reviewed By JamesHibbleDON'T BOOK CYLINDERS (look good but completely impractical) Dissapointing place made worse by staff who just do not care in the slightest. Cons: -Usless staff -cloudy pool, with no one daring to go in it -they insist on cash only , charge 5% for cards - Almost nothing available in terms of food or even a cold drink Pros: - Quite central - Very good quality showers and toilets Enthusiastic staff would have made a huge difference. Some people left early to swap to poshpackers.

THE BEST SERVICE EVER
Reviewed By PatrrryAMAZING, GREAT AND PERFECT STAY. This lovely little hotel near SJO Airport is the best you could stay at. We stayed for a night and rented a SUV with them (for 2 weeks) last December, the owners are the best hosts, they treated us as if we were family. In our arrival lovely Yolanda picked us up from the airport and gave us some tips on what to visit. The room is perfect with all the necessary and the breakfast in the morning is very fresh and homemade, we felt like at home. When we had to return the car they let us have a shower before leaving to the airport, they then dropped us at the airport. We can’t recommend this place enough. Cheap, really clean, great food and perfect hosts. Thank you so much, we will definetly be back. :)

Excellent and cheap
Reviewed By Robi GThe place is on the main street of la fortuna. We ordered 2 night, and then we added one night. Everything was excellent, especially in relation to the cheap price. The brakefast was good too. We used the pool which was a really nice spot for the end of our days. Mario in the reception was very nice and helpful.
5. Hotel Cortez Azul
Overall Ratings
4 based on 55 reviews
To fly in and out of Costa Rica for convenience may need to stay near an airport and the Juan Santamaria in Alajuela. The hotel is conveniently located Cortez Azul near the most important airport in Costa Rica. Alajuela is located only 2 km away and about 5 minutes from airport.
Noisy basic but clean room
Reviewed By doriane13480We chose this hotel as it was located nearby the airport so easy location. Nothing much to do in the area and we were recommended to a shopping center to have dinner (but it was closed). Entrance door always knocked so you need to ring and disturb the owner every time you need to enter or exit the hostel. Noisy room from the street but mainly the stairs. Not a bad choice for short stays.

Start of Vacation
Reviewed By 203leetThe owner is an amazing Hard working lady, I watched her not only stay up late to let us in but also another traveler. This is a quite clean family run Hostel . The breakfast was lovely and the smells of the baking from the Kitchen to die for. If your looking for a quite place to rest and start your trip this is it.

Best place in Alajuela
Reviewed By Sarah MRight next to the airport, this was the best place to stay. There's beautiful artwork along the walls. Katty is the most heart warming host ever. She is so kind and makes you feel at home she takes really good care of you. Very clean, good breakfast, nice building. Top service, great stay I wanna go back will be the place I always go to when I'm in the area. Would recommend to anyone to go Sarah

700 Meter West Of The Catolic Church, In Front Of Lava Lounge Restaurant
Value for money
Reviewed By Monica_CSRVery nice place to stay. You're in the middle of La Fortuna with a supermarket right next door. Quite the chill place with a small pool, hammocks and chairs to catch some sun. There's a bar near the pool and 2 kitchens. The room was nice and clean, with a comfortable bed. The receptionists were very helpful. Only downside is the loud fan in the room, which was unfortunately necessary since the room for very hot.
9. La Palmera Real
Overall Ratings
5 based on 6 reviews
Comfy and cozy hotel with private and shared rooms, a full kitchen and living room at the edge of La Fortuna downtown. Surrounded by a small forest and El Burio river, milking cows, sheep, ducks, hens, pets, lots of birds, our VIP visitor “Flash” the sloth, iguanas and more wildlife you will encounter as you get to know our familiar property. All places in town are less than 5 min by car.
Very friendly and helpfull, nice place
Reviewed By juliedevaFirst of all, the people who run this place are great. They provided us with lots of information (in English), gave us tips and booked tours for us. They were very pro-active in making our stay perfect for us. It’s a family owned place and they started running the hotel in the beginning of 2019, but are already doing a great job. The accomodation and facilities were good and the location is nice, not in the middle of the city center but very close.

Tranquility & hospitality extraordinaire.
Reviewed By asgert2013I had the absolute pleasure of staying at Lumbres del Arenal Cabinas y Villas, for an unforgettable 10 days. This family owned, small resort, located just on the foothills of the Arenal volcano, about 10 km outside of La Fortuna, and 3 km from the Tabacon hotsprings, is just a beautiful hidden gem. In the middle of nature, surrounded by wildlife, and with an amazing vista of the volcano, you can just sit back in the lush garden and enjoy the tranquility. The owners are some of the kindest people I have ever met, and they did more than one could expect, to make you feel at home. The rooms are great at the price, and both clean and comfortable. The resorts own Steakhouse/restaurant "El Novillo del Arenal" is definitely also worth a visit. All in all, I absolutely enjoyed my 10 days here. If you are looking for cheap accommodation in the middle of nature, but close enough to the many attractions surrounding volcano Arenal. If you like me prefer nature, wildlife and tranquility instead of luxury resorts, all while enjoying the amazing hospitality of the owners. Look no further!
