Arenal Backpackers Resort

I liked the jacuzzy, and the dishes and utensils and hotwater kettle.

The Wifi was not stable in the room. There was no laundry equipment like a Washer & Dryer. Also there was no soap for the shower.

All of it

There’s nothing that comes to my mind

The vibe is cool, though very hostel-like. We spent one night in the pod which was a fun experience and very reasonably priced. Then moved to a private room, which was very no frills. The bed was big, but it was probably more basic than expected given the price. We were also next to a plant room which was quite noisy. The staff were pleasant enough, although not overly enthusiastic or engaged.

a space where people could meet and introduce each other. Staff always there for any help

lockers are in the bathroom and not handy.

Der Außenbereich ist ganz schön gestaltet, besonders der Pool.

Wir haben ursprünglich zwei Nachte in den Zelten gebucht und haben uns nach der ersten Nacht was anderes gesucht, da das Zelt so verdreckt und verschimmelt war. Es hat auch richtig modrig gerochen, dass war definitiv ein Gesundheitsrisiko in dem Zelt zu schlafen. Es ist mir unverständlich wie man sowas Gästen anbieten kann! Es wurde uns dann angeboten das Zimmer zu Wechsel, aber wir wollten einfach nur weg. Ich war neun Monate reisen und das war mit die schlimmste Unterkunft in der ich je mals geschlafen habe. Ich kann nur allen davon abraten diese Zelte zu buchen! Zudem ist der Boden auch nicht dicht, es sind nur Holzbretter zwischen den 3cm große Lücken sind. In dem Fall war es gut, da dann wenigstens frische Luft durchgekommen ist. Wir haben uns nur 5 Stunden in den Zelt aufgehalten für eine Nacht, aber eigentlich hätten wir uns sofort was neues suchen sollen. Ich kann wirklich nicht verstehen, wie man sowas als Gastgeber seinen Gästen anbieten kann.

Hostel com área externa boa, com piscina e mesas, ótimo para relaxar depois dos passeios. O quarto (dormitório de 8 beliches) é amplo. A localização é bem no centro de La Fortuna.

As camas individuais nao tinham nem cortina nem luz individual. O banheiro teve o sanitário sem funcionar bem a descarga desde o primeiro dia e, apesar de notificado a recepção, nao foi solucionado.

There were a lot of showers and toilets. The hot tub was also nice

This wasn’t really a hostel. There was no programming to bring people together, the bar was closed, there wasn’t a real kitchen, and the curfew was early. Also there were many tour groups traveling together at the time so it wasn’t easy to meet new people since they stayed together.
