Bekuo was a great experience for us! The people were SO friendly and we had a blast staying there. The rooms were BEAUTIFUL. We've definitely seen our share of hostels and this was by far the most attractive. The breakfasts were awesome--delicious pancakes and pineapple every morning, alongside some cafe britt. The staff were beyond friendly and we were able... more

I was given the contact information for Hostel Bekuo by a friend that lives in Nosara, Costa Rica and frequents San Jose.

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

My friend and I were slated to stay at Bekuo for four nights. 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

I stayed at Bekuo for 2 1/2 months last summer. A couple of us were there for school down the street at the Inter-American Court on Human Rights. 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
