The Poshtel in La Fortuna impresses guests with its central location near amenities and attractions. Its clean, spacious rooms and friendly staff stand out. However, the colorful 'pods' might not suit everyone.

This hostel was the best hostel me or any of my friends have stayed at. We made friends with the wonderful bartender, Franny. She was such a joy to be around and I would come back just for her. She had wonderful service and made our drinks wonderfully. 10/10 would recommend.
