About
A budget hostel about 300 meters east of the Drake boat landing, with colorful dorms, private rooms, a garden, hammocks, and a big common area where travelers meet. The location draws consistent praise — close to the beach where tour and transfer boats leave, and near the markets. The shared kitchen stays open around the clock, which reviewers say is handy for pre-dawn Corcovado starts. Expect basics at a low price: some rooms run hot, and guests mention a firm 9 a.m. checkout, so confirm details when you book. A couple of reviewers also advise keeping valuables on you in the common areas. Wheelchair accessible.

We loved this place. The staff, shared kitchen facilities, rooms, hammock, location, etc. were all incredible and with the price they were world class. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!
A budget hostel in Drake Bay, good location - close to the beach where the transfer and tour boats go and close to the markets. Room was very hot but bed was comfortable and shower was good. Kitchen is good and open all the time which is handy for the early starts for Corcovado. Unfortunately a valuable and important item of mine was stolen from the common area, the ladies at reception were not helpful at all the next day but Carlos did at least check the reception lost and found area for me but apparently the common area security cameras do not work which is very disappointing
Check out 9AM ?!? Ridiculous. Perfect location, clean room, basic, OK. Comment on response: checkout time was explained after payment, missold.
