Cabinas Tortuguero

This was the most amazing hostel I stayed at on my trip! The owner and staff are the most kind people ever

The location is great, just a short walk from the centre of town and the main dock. The rooms were very warm and quite basic, not all beds had privacy curtains. The kitchen was basic and not very well stocked. The wifi didn’t really work in the dorm but worked out on the porch. This is a fine place for a budget trip.

The staff at the hostel are lovely, but the dorm was the most disgusting room I’ve stayed in across the last 4 months. The kitchen has mouldy chopping boards/ wooden spoons, ant nests on the table top. The room smelt awful as there is no where to dry clothes (as it was too humid outside to hang them and they dry- I tried for 2 days). The toilets were black with mould on the inside and smelt like old pee and the dead cockroaches that were there when I arrived were still there when I left.
