SpainThe hostel is in a quiet safe neighborhood of San Jose. It has a lot of nice common areas where you can find a quiet corner to relax in. The dorm rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable with privacy curtains.
United States of AmericaBeautiful open kitchen with few people using it, lots of space, good places to sit and work, lovely rooftop with good views, superior location. Very friendly staff. Also, the usual high quality typical for Selina: good mattress, nice bedding, very clean.
United States of AmericaThe property is overall aesthetically pleasing and comfortable. The man who checked us in was extremely nice and helpful, the friendliest Selina member in my opinion (I’m not sure of him name but he was half German, half Chilean). We had an important work event and he helped us check in way earlier than the regular check in time which we never had at any other Selina! The location is GREAT!
