This is one of the cleanest hostels I have ever stayed in. I stayed here for several days while working out of Turrialba, and I highly recommend it if you are in the area. The kitchen is free to use, the laundry room is available to use for a fair price, and the back deck is a nice place to... More

We stayed two nights at Casa de Lis (march 2012), in two different, private rooms. Both rooms were clean, as was the cummunal kitchen. You can do your laundryo fr a fair price. If you want, you can pre-order breakfast for the next morning. The owner is really helpfull, tellling you all about the available tours and attractions (try the... More

We arrived at Casa de Lis after a long and tiring journey from Manuel Antonio and what a relief when we walked through the door: Cosy, clean, with so many little details (handwritten signs, books, coffee, etc.), a beautifully kept back garden and porch. Even though it's located in the town center, it's very quiet, because all the rooms are... More

Keep in mind that 1) it's a hostel, not a formal hotel and 2) it's RIGHT in central Turrialba on a quite busy intersection. That said, it was lovely, convenient & surprisingly quiet at night (there was noise from the neighborhood in the morning, but the hostel can't control that). I had the private room with private bath. Everything was... More

Among all the hostels I've stayed at in Costa Rica, this is by far the best. The personalized service is great, the ambiance is homey and relaxing, the rooms are spic-and-span and, unlike many other hostels, Hostel Casa de Lis offers a great breakfast menu. The hostel has recently opened its doors and the spacious rooms and bathrooms are brand... More

I spent several nights at Casa de Lis spread out over a three week period while I was in the Turrialba area in December 2011. It is immaculately clean, centrally located within Turrialba (just a five minute walk from the bus station), and is safe and secure. Lis is very accommodating and friendly. Breakfast option is available in the mornings... More

Lis, the owner, is amazing. Superbly clean rooms, close to everything in the city, nice kitchen, little "handmade" map of all the activities in the city and around. She also serves breakfast at the time of your chosing, and offers free pancake mix. Wish our stay could have been longer. Go there if you travel by bus. That is all!

The owner and team there are so nice; the accommodation is clean and fresh, the environment of the place is friendly, helpful and sincere, and the prices are so affordable that I actually wanted to pay the lady more since it was such a great...
