I've spent the last few days recovering from traveling at Casa del Parque. The house is really nice and spacious. It's a great place to just relax for a few days and plan out the next part of your trip. I was a little worried because I read that they had a cat and I'm really allergic but I had... More

I love this hostel! Simple, really calm, laid back, awesome staff always, great place for working, chatting, relaxing, but close to prettiest neighborhood and best nightlife in SJ. THE place to stay in SJ. I work in CR, have visited many hostals, and this is my #1! Yo amo este hostal! Sencillo, super calmo, tranquilo, siempre empleados buenísimos, lugar excellente... More

Hostel Casa Del Parque was great! Traveled around Costa Rica for 10 days and San Jose was the bookends of the trip. I was fine staying in the big loft room (that has about 15 beds - no bunks), just plan your showers accordingly since there is only 1 for all the travelers. It was never an issue both nights... More

The house is beautiful and the location is perfect... HOWEVER, there were cat hairs all over the beds. I stayed in a private room, but I heard from other guests that it was the same in the dorm. I was suffering from allergies the entire next day. I wish I had known about the cat prior to booking the room.... More

very good value, clean kitchen for using, there is also a great small restaurant next to the hostel More

This hostel is truly unique.

Hostel Cada del Parque has an exceedingly friendly and helpful staff that make you feel at home. I already miss having breakfast in their gorgeous... More

really nice location. very friendly staff. rooms are tidy and clean but a bit musty. probably because of the cloudy weather we experienced when we were there. really nice patio with lovely plants. decent location in the city, walking distance to everything More

Hostel Casa Del Parque was a great way to start our trip in Costa Rica. Although a little far from the airport, it is right in the centre of Downtown San Jose and everything is easily accessible from there. Across from a park, there are almost always taxi's out front if you need one. The hostel itself is very secure... More

I've been in and out of this hostel for a few weeks now. The staff is fantastic, which really makes it great. Not a party hostel, which is especially nice since many trips in costa rica require leaving really early in the morning, so you can actually get some sleep in the dorms. I really liked the building itself, and... More
