Hostels in AlajuelaHostel

I have stayed at innumerable hostels in at least 15-20 countries and have never had such a great experience. This hostel was unbelievably clean… the employees just didn't stop!

Hostel was clean and well maintained. I booked a private room with shared bathroom and wasnprovided with towels as well as free cleaning services.

Location is very convenient for stay in La Fortuna. Kitchen is spacious and good social area. Volunteers were helpful and kept the place tidy.

Excellent location near everything. Staff were great. I think this is one of the most practical hostels in Costa rica. Coffee, towel, oil in kitchen salt spices. HOT water.

This is a perfect hostel for your stay in La Fortuna. Definitely good vibes here. Very spacious areas, clean kitchen and a shared organized fridge.

Such a fun hostel with impeccable vibes.
The bar upstairs is amazing, very spacious and comfortable.
Fun games are held most nights on the roof.
The staff are friendly and welcoming.

Such a hidden gem. This place was amazing. I loved the birdhouse cabin we stayed in. Nice cool breeze all night. In a secure place with cameras and the host is wonderful.

This is perfect for a first or last night for the airport. I always use it and get the owner to do the transfer. I feel very safe here after a tiring flight.

My stay here at Alpha Arenal was everything it needed to be. I made friends with other guests, cooked food together, hung out and did a few epic tours.

I had an amazing stay at Alpha Arenal! The atmosphere was super welcoming, the rooms were clean, and the location was perfect to explore La Fortuna and the volcano area.

Only visited it to attend a music gig, a local band played mostly music from Credence Clearwater Revival, it was a great gig, they only had drinks but allowed us to buy food from elsewhere outside.

Excellent location if you want to be close to bus stations and enjoy the town convinient in a walking distance.

No TV in room unless you pay a good up charge but the rooms are good and clean. All have air conditioning.

Toucan Hostel was an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in with our dog, the staff made us feel so welcome and turned what could have been a tricky trip into a really enjoyable stay.

Nice Place Hostel is a really good spot in La Fortuna. It's easy to walk to everything you need, but quiet enough to get some sleep.
The common areas are nice, and the kitchen is clean for cooking.

The lady that hosts the hostel is super nice. She gave me wonderful advise about what to see around La Fortuna.

Love this hostel! The location is great, and the owner is very friendly. The common space is really cool and unique with beautiful murals everywhere and tons of funs games.

Amazing hostel with a very good chef as the owner! Super welcoming and clean, I most definitely recommend for first time visit to la Fortuna.

Good value hostel with helpful staff. Everything was clean and the AC in the rooms are very comforting — only the sink in our dorm room was leaking.

The most amazing thing is the staff, always helpful and quick to solve any problem.
The hostel is 10 minutes walk away from the "center" of la fortuna, but supermarkets are very close.

Nice hostel, helpfuls emlloyes, gave me many tipps where to go, what to do, how to avoid being scammed or to pay too much.

They sell a three day unlimited shuttle pass with access to many different points of interest including El Castillo and Lake Arenal. I highly recommend purchasing one, at just $20 it's worth it.

Great localization, super nice owner. Nice view from the tarace. If I ever gonna be nearby I will stay there for sure :)

Hostel is nice — Franny at the bar and Jorge are amazing! Cute common area and daily happy hour. They don’t host events or anything so have to put yourself out there if you want to be social.

Loved it! Best location. In the heart of the city. The sloth park is 3 mins drive. Shuttles available for everywhere. Staff is amazing! Especially Frannie and George.

A nice hostel with chill vibes located within the town of La fortuna.

I honestly can’t believe how lucky I was to find this place. From the moment I arrived, Asha Hostel felt like a home away from home.

I’ve stayed at my fair share of hostels and budget-friendly accommodations around the world, but Alajuela Backpackers Airport Hostel genuinely surprised me in the best way possible.

To be honest… super close to the airport is really great! They pick you up and drop you off at the airport as well. I couldn't have asked better. It s clean. Internet works. It s a great place.

We wanted something central, budget friendly and private. This location is amazing, the owner is a gem, very helpful (Marvin even drove us to the airport so we could enjoy a more leisurely stay).

I stayed in a shared dorm room for a few nights. This place was great for the price you pay; very centralized in La Fortuna, and right across from the park which is a great place to relax.

We stayed only for one night. Even though we came after midnight, Laura was nice and friendly.

Single female traveler. I was in the 4 bed bunk room and the mattress & pillows were very comfortable. Everything was spotlessly clean & all pure white bedding! Plenty of bathrooms.

If I could give it 6 stars I would, such a wonderful and beautiful little place with the nicest owner and a wonderful restaurant.

This was an absolutely amazing experience. It was like staying in the middle of the jungle.
