This place was kept very clean and everything functional, very close to the cloud forest and just off the main road making it easy to get around without a car. Safe place to park if you do have a car and a great place to stay to explore around Monteverde Lively breakfast was also provided as mentioned

Our stay in La Suerte was great. The place was very clean and the communication super easy, there was always someone in the house if you had any questions. We were also able to book our activities directly at the hostel. The breakfast was very tasty, for many eaters maybe a rather small portion;) The location was also great, quiet but still very quickly accessible on foot.

On the internet, there is a lack of cleanliness and hygiene. However, I can't agree with that. It was simple but clean and everything is taken care of with a lot of love. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is very quiet, not in the middle of the center, but still everything is safe and within walking distance.

Clean place with friendly hosts! The blanket on one of my beds was covered in sand when I came in, but other than that, the place was a delight! Nice common spaces for guests.

This was a great hostel to stay at in Monteverde. Our room was clean and comfortable, the staff at the desk were great and super helpful, and the breakfast in the morning was yummy! Everything was pretty clean all the time, even the kitchen. And it's a quick and easy walk into the town too.

Our arrival was a bit tricky, place is behing the warehouse area, so we had a bit troubles to find it. Also our reservation was on the name of room, not hostel, what confused us. Room was bit cold and dark, also could have been a bit cleaner. On the other hand the family was sweet, they were super helpful and breakfast in the morning was great start of the day. Also kept our backpacks after check out.

The staff was very pleasant and welcoming. I didn't ask how to make the shower get hot water becausewe were in a time crunch. But it was a pleasant stay.

The quality-price ratio of the hostel is very good. It has a good location, the rooms are okay and the breakfast is prepared everyday with a lot of love from the Dueña of the Hostel. However, the information provided by the hostel was very misleading, which is why we've first been to the wrong hostel. This needs to be updated urgently. Moreover, when we confronted the hosts, we received very unfriendly answers and cynical comments - which is a big no-go in the hospitality industry.

The family clearly takes a lot of pride in the hostel that they have created. They are friendly and kind; a couple speak perfect English, others patiently encourage Spanish conversation. My kids and I shared a private room and had no issues. The breakfast provided was good.

The hosts have gone out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. The breakfast was prepared with love. The murals are worth seeing. We enjoyed staying in the kitchen and on the balcony with the great view. Our room was a little too dark, humid, and didn't smell good. It was right next to the family premises. As a result, it was a bit noisy at times. Unfortunately there was no storage next to the bed. For this purpose, we could park our car right outside the door.

One of the best places I've stayed. Excellent hosts, the place is excellent. * Perfect location: If you come by bus from Puntarenas, it leaves you right on the corner; or if you come by car there is space to leave it. The accommodation is less than 5 minutes' walk from the centre. * Security: The area is very safe. * Cleanliness and comfort: The place is very spacious and very clean, it has hot water and comfortable beds, not to mention an excellent breakfast with homey touch that will help you start all your activities in Monteverde. It has several areas where you can rest and you can watch an excellent sunset. *Hosts: They are great people, they were always helping us, they were very attentive and made us feel at home. I definitely highly recommend the place, it has a lot of magic.

We were pleasantly surprised with this hostel, Hostel La Suerte. It is family owned and run so the hospitality is excellent. Benedicto's wife, Elvia, cooked us a tasty traditional Costa Rican breakfast, and his son helped us with checking in and out. He was also super helpful with recommendations for activities and restaurants in the area. There is an ample communal kitchen and a big balcony off the communal living room with seating to relax and enjoy the beautiful view of the Gulf of Nicoya. The room was clean, shower was hot, and it was perfect for my small family of 3.

The Unique selling point of this place is the family. Thee are so nice and inviting. The son speaks perfect English, the dad paints beautiful paintings, the mom cooks wonderful breakfasts, the daughters and granddaughters are lovely. One can dance really well. You feel at home immediately. The place is superclean and there is enough space to hang out.
