The staff was absolutely fabulous. I visited Monteverde in early January 2012. It was so windy and cold (so bring layers if you are traveling around that time). We arrived on the jeep boat jeep from Arenal. The driver didn't quite know where we were going because there is another place in town called Camino Verde (which is what Tina's... More

My family (2 kids, my wife and I) stayed in the private (4 beds) room for a couple of days in December 2011. Pros: - Friendly and helpful owners with good english - They will help you with tours (though the prices for the tours appear to be the same as anywhere else) - Cheap - around $65 a night... More

We stayed here for 3 nights and since it was low season received a free upgrade which was very nice. The room was clean, quiet at night, lots of space, private bathroom with hot shower and good WiFi. Very close to town (5 min. walk). Overall a great and affordable place and EXCELLENT service. Andres was very helpful, he helped... More

Stayed in this hostel with a friend because it looked decent online. Exceeded my expectations by far. Great price for a private room, very clean and very comfortable. So much so that we even stayed in on a friday night to enjoy some R&R. Andres is a super cool guy that was super helpful and very friendly. The breakfast was... More

My friend & I stayed at Tina's casitas for 1 day. For a hostel, this was the best hostel that we have ever stayed at.

The cabins themselves are brilliant, you really feel as though you are staying with the locals rather than in a sterile hotel. They are super clean and comfortable and although basic provide you with everything that you would need during your stay. The breakfasts... More

When I arrived at this hostel in Monteverde I was met by the very friendly owner Andres who made sure that I was comfortable and safe. Not only was he professional, but the hostel was tidy and clean. Andres was kind and very thorough in making sure that I enjoyed my stay. When organizing my plans in San Jose the... More

The customer service was phenomenal--we arrived late but the owner left his number and came and checked us in at midnight. He was also very helpful and knowledgeable in setting up our sightseeing trips, which was particularly useful since we were only there for a couple of days. The hotel itself is very nice and relaxing and the breakfast good.... More

We stayed here for 3 nights but wished that we had stayed somewhere else. The good news here was that Andres is extremely knowledgeable and helpful regarding activities in the area. The things that we didn't like were- Our room was hot and there was no fan. There were mosquitos in the room and we received several bites. The sheets... More
