Parking for Monteverde cloud forest is right in front of the hotel. Hotel is deep inside with no convenience stores in walkable distance. Hotels.com had incorrect location listed which made us go in circles to find the place. We used yoga room for yoga. They have kitchen. Road the hotel is terrible with many potholes. Driving in rain was terrible experience specifically when you are coming for the first time and have incorrect directions.
Everything was great! Just go somewhere else for food.
Perfect location to hike the cloud rainforest.
Amazing views
It was a very beautiful property!
Check in area & dining/common areas are great. Staff is awesome. Restaurant food & drinks were great. Room was dingy, musty, & cramped. We were in a private 4 person room. 2 huge useless chairs took up 1/4 of the room. Should replace with table/space for luggage. Could use a fresh coat of paint too. Small coffee/tea maker would be a lovely addition. It was not a space you would want to relax in. Really just shelter for $200/night. Common kitchen is disgusting & Not stocked for meal prep. I get that it’s a hostel but for the price expected more.
I did not want to leave!! The property is really cool, the bar/restaurant and jacuzzi area especially. The staff were so friendly and helpful - muchas gracias a todos por una linda bienvenida y hospedaje, y para las buenas recomendaciones! Espero volver pronto! Abrazo!
The room stayed wet the entire time. The towels stayed wet, the floor stayed wet, our beds were wet and the windows had loads of moisture on them. One shower and your room is very wet. A fan would be very helpful. Limited bathroom storage and hangars. The walls are thin and the doors are 1-2cm above the ground, which allows noise and bugs in.
Hostel Selina is a cute spot way up in the mountains with a great common area, hot tubs, a library/reading space, kitchen and yoga studio. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would certainly return our next trip here!
First I'll say, THE ROOMS DON'T HAVE HEAT! Most places in C.R. this doesn't matter, but it was 59 degrees and raining when we arrived and our room was that temp in the room all night. This may be why Expedia calls this a "hostel". The next night they loaned me a space heater. I was excited to stay here because I've stayed at some cool eco-resorts, but it turns out this is a corporate chain. The rooms were very basic and not kept up (e.g. broken light, window didn't work right), which felt disappointing since we'd paid the same amount as other, nicer places. It also felt like we were being charged extra for everything. I ordered a salad plate with falafel and they charged $1.45 for a little 1/4 of tzatziki sauce. The menu seemed to have some good options, but the food wasn't very good. The "complimentary" drink is not a drink of your choice, but a hot cup of sugar cane water. You can reserve one time slot a day for the jacuzzi. The pros are the location, which is right next to the shuttle parking lot for the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve. (the downside of this is the road gets bad the 1/4 mile before the hotel.) There also are some nice gardens around the property and some cool decor.
