My friends and I met up in Costa Rica from various places in the United States at Hostel Bekuo. We stayed a total of 4 night of our 10 nights in Costa Rica. We had a wonderful experience there. For 2 members of our party it was a first staying in a hostel. The staff really made the experience (especially... more

We loved our stay at Bekuo. It is a great, orderly, tasteful hostel with nice people, a great kitchen, free internet, a huge tv, many books, cheap laundry service, and a pool table among other things. It was a nice respite from the traditional, sketchy backpackers´ hostels and trashy hotel rooms we´ve encountered, and the neighborhood is excellent. If we... more

While I'd only consider San Jose as a necessary evil, the Hostel Bekuo made our stay totally enjoyable. I've stayed at a lot of hostels and this is the first time I've felt like it was one big family...nothing forced on you or anything, but there is a great sense of community. Our first night, a great impromptu party broke... more

Very comfortable and clean common areas. Very nice and helpful people who run it. Internet access was a breeze and they also have a huge selection of area guidebooks and magazines. Nice vibe and people there. more

The afternoon a day before we were supposed to stay there (I had emailed the hostel and they told me they had room and we were all set) I received an apologetic email saying that someone else had used a secondary booking site and that our room... more

Storm and the rest of the staff were amazing and unbelievably helpful. We knew little of the country and where to go and what to see. Storm, the owner, is an endless... more

We stayed here based on reviews. We have never stayed at a hostel before but will be open to it in future travels....just not with our kid. Only stayed 1 night. The good feedback about this hostel......friendly staff, not a party place, quiet, nice area with a great restaurant (El Balcon) 3 blocks away, safe ambiance, nice guests..it has that... more

Hostel Bukuo was the first hostel I've stayed in and my boyfriend and I's first destination in Costa Rica. The employees were nice and laid back. Rooms were clean and they have a nice t.v. room and pool table which we used often. We only stayed for two nights but for the two nights we were there it worked out... more

They don't take reservations, just on the honest system. They were good, it was in a good neighborhood. They told us the wrong time for the direct bus to manual antonio. I got my stuff stolen on a non direct bus and it was just bad. But the beds were comfortable and they had free internet. We were only there... more
