The 8 Best Hostels in San José, Costa Rica (Updated 2025)
"I liked the colorful, art-covered vibe at Stray Cat Hostel—homey, well maintained, and clean—making it an easy place to relax between travels. The hostel is quiet and laid back so sleep is easy, but mattresses are a bit thin and bunks don’t have curtains; the surrounding area isn’t ideal after dark, though it’s close to the bus station and convenient if you’re passing through or heading to the airport." - Matthew Kepnes
