I stayed in one of the private rooms. It was very clean and it had everything I needed. The room was a little small, but comfortable. The hotel grounds are pretty and very clean. There is also a very nice small pool. The staff were friendly and answered any questions we had. I would definitely stay here again.

Malheureusement en renovation.
Malheureusement l'hotel et le restaurant est en rénovation. Les rideaux avaient été retirés pour nettoyage et on m'a confirmé qu'ils allaient être reposés le soir même. Le lendemain toujours rien, les rideaux des autres étages sont revenus, toujours rien pour les miens, j'ai refait la demande, on est jamais vu m'installer de rideaux. Cet hotel sera super une fois le tout renové. L'emplacement est super bien. Location de surf disponible.

Reception is very slow and doesn't seem to care much that you are standing there. Nice to have a private room and the main area was amazing with lots of hammocks and music and great to meet people. Amazing vibe. Would come back.

It’s a really cool place for backpackers. Things going on around you all the time. I’ve stayed at alot of selina’s and really enjoy the vibe. Just think that this one was a bit worn out.

Decepcionada
He estado en otros selinas de Costa Rica y la verdad que muy bien en general salvo este , cada una viaja para lo que viaja no vamos a entrar en ese tema , y en los selinas también hay fiesta y lo respeto pero también que sea mutuo. Llegue tarde al hostal después de todo el día en carretera cansada y con ganas de una súper ducha , al llegar la habitación súper sucia , botellas de alcohol por todos lados , mi cama la única libre que aunque ponía un cartel de reservado la había estado usando otro turista que se hospedaba en el piso de arriba ( que me lo dijo él mismo al presentarse) y no tenía ni sábanas .... en fin me cambié de hostal al día siguiente y la mar de feliz, espero que el operador me pueda devolver el dinero de las dos noches más pagadas y no disfrutadas....

Not recomended
Booket one night here. When I arrived they didn't have a key for me and hence didn't let me check in. After two more hours they still didn't have a key for me, but said I could leave my things in the room (even though I was in the risk of being locked out of my own room witch was idiotic). After some discussion they found an extra key for me. Then I found my bed full of short hairs in the end where the pillow was, witch was quite discustiung. Then it turned out that the others in my dorm was emplyoees of Selina, one of whom got home late at night, drunk and on drugs it seemed like, and kept talking for almost two hours to himself while I was trying to sleep. The morning after another employee left for work around 6 but left his phone with the alarm on in the room so the rest of us could not sleep. The guys working in the bar/restaurant was supernice tho. Would not stay here again, but could eat and have a drink in the restaurant

The place is perfect if you whant to learn surf! Nice soda really near. There is a super with good beers just around the corner. The kitchen is really big but might need some love.

This hotel is really nice, the WiFi is always good. Some improuvement migh be done in the kitchen and with the chairs around the pool. We rented some surf many times and the staff is friendly. The bar at the hotel is nice. This is a really good hotel to try surfing. The waves for beginner are right beside the hotel!
