Selinas are always beautifully decorated to resemble the local area, this is why I love staying in them! They’re sociable, friendly from staff to other guests, clean tidy and reliable .

Really nice hostel, plenty of storage in dorm room. Clean. Felt safe and could walk to main museums/market etc easily. Adding breakfast to booking was good value.

Superb hostel with a superb activities/programming director and host Valen!! Superb staff from reception, yoga instructor, masseuse Oscar (massage by Oscar a must!), restaurant staff, to the facilities maintenance staff! The food, atmosphere, activities, comfy beds, and plush linen are super phenomenal! Large community kitchen, safe and convenient location about 10-minute Uber ride to/from the airport and central market. Walkable to nearby museums and other shops!! What stood out for me was that I am a middle-aged traveler and activities were all-inclusive for myself and other seasoned travelers! RESERVE NOW!!!

Clean, secure and with privacy. Free 10 minutes massage. Friendly staff. The separate coworking space is ideal if you have work to do.

We really enjoyed our stay at Selina! We had been looking to stay at a Selina Hostel since we arrived in South America as they seem to be everywhere & always look great, but they were either too expensive or they had no availability. Our luck came in when we got to San Jose Costa Rica - a small private room within our budget. The room was described as being the size of a train compartment and it was spot on however it was perfect for our two nights, comfiest bed ever! We had two bathrooms close by that no one else seemed to be using, so that was a bonus. Loved that we got towels, toiletries included in the bathrooms and the general decor throughout the hostel was very cool. A well equipped kitchen with lots of space. The atmosphere was friendly and buzzing. The location was brilliant, walkable to everywhere and with some good bars/cafes on the doorstep. Selina Hostels seem to have mastered what travellers want and need. They have more of a hotel feel than a hostel feel. (Although sometimes the prices are more reflective of a hotel which is a shame!) We will definitely aim to stay at another Selina during our travels if possible. I would love it if the hostel chain made it across to Europe!!!

Right on the beach, easy to meet other backpackers, kitchen to use, amazing sunsets. great cinema room. This is definitely one of the better selinas. The bathrooms are basic but at least clean. I did 1 night in the little cylinder rooms which was a cool experience. But its shared bathrooms. Not sure why people hate on Jaco so much. If you need a close beach destination to San Jose its fine (bus took 3-3.5hrs - San jose is a traffic nightmare), walkable, I felt safe as a solo female since its quite a busy main road with many tourists. The beach has lots of waves so good for surf. I went during the week and there were 2-3 bars to go to at night on the main strip, nothing crazy but fun chill vibe with djs.

Selina SJ is a great hub for exploring the city. Selina is situated in a quiet area, 10-15 minute walk from downtown, Barrio Escalante around the corner. Staff and visitors are great company. Selina offers free yoga, entertainment but also some quiet spots like the upstairs terrace. The kitchen is well equipped. Overall the dorms and facilities are clean. If you're just in CR from an exhausting flight, then Selina offers you the right place to feel welcome and get grounded!

The hostel is clean and trendy. I ended up staying in a 6 BR dorm but there were only one other person. The dorm was clean and on the second floor, which means lugging your stuff, but you can ask the staff for help. The bathroom for the 6 people dorm was very small and did not had hot water in the sink, so I mostly used the bathroom by the Salon in the morning. You take your own towel. The kitchen has few utensils. The restaurant staff gave me a bit of milk to make the tea. There is a small library and also another gathering place on the third floor (which was basically empty as it was cold when I was there). The co-working place is across the street and internet works great there. The location of the hostel is great. They have a storage area to hold your luggage. Overall, a bit pricey but nice place to stay.

The hostel was really friendly with a great self contained set up. The food and drink available was great and very reasonable prices too. We got free welcome cocktails and a free 10min massage - I would have definitely paid for another massage if staying longer. The dorms were nice with curtains for privacy.
