Aging hostel
It is an aging hostel right on the main street, expect uncomfortable beds, unclean floors, and lots of road noise all night. The breakfast was good

The photos make the rooms look bigger. They also don’t show they count a double bed as a loft that has a low ceiling.

Best hostel experience!
This is an amazing place to stay. Feels like a cozy bed and breakfast up in the mountains. The staff is so friendly and accommodating! Common areas are comfortable and the free breakfast is a great way to start your day.

This is our 4th time staying at the Pension Santa Maria. Staff and guests are super friendly. Location is very centralized. Beds are comfortable (but bring your own pillows).
Meredith, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had a lovely experience staying here! Has a great location -walking distance to restaurants and shops. Staff were welcoming and helpful with booking us a shuttle and recommending places! Very cozy and comfortable sleep, clean and cute place, tasty free breakfast included. Pretty garden lounge area outside too!

8/10 Very good

We really enjoyed our stay at the pension. We had the chance to meet with beautiful people and share parts of our trip with them. The place is very well located, but the area is quite busy and get somehow quite noisy with traffic noise in the background.
LAURA, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful hostel, lots of people, glad we had a private room. Staff really helpful, especially MJ. Loved the free breakfast with donations for the community. Santa Elena & Monteverde have many activities to offer, in town & surrounding area.

Hilla, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Definitely a hostel in terms of quality of facilities. Very small rooms. Loud since it is located on a busy road.
Bryson, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

friendly staff, easy access to town, slept awful
The hotel has a lot of personality and staff was super friendly and helpful. The included breakfast was great. Hotel is easily walkable to a bunch of good restaurants and super market in the area. Beds were not comfortable and there is no sound proofing in the rooms-- we could hear everything on the main road all night long. We slept really poorly but otherwise were happy with the hotel.
Abby, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfortable, convenient.
Super convenient location, very clean and comfy bed, warm shower, staff helpful and breakfast included with ease. Downside: noisy road, lots of dust and exhaust fumes. However, if you’re staying here it’s likely because you want the central location and it’s right in the centre so it’s perfect. Wouldn’t stay if I had a car. The kitchen facilities could also do with updating: better pans and more fridge space.
Olivia, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great for the solo female traveller
As a female traveller, I felt completely safe here and would definitely stay again if I'm ever back in Monteverde. Great place for a solo traveller with a communal kitchen to help keep down expenses of eating out. WiFi in all the rooms. Staff were extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful 😊 My only complaint would be the floors in my room hadn't been cleaned (but in fairness it's a 2 star hostel, not a 5 star hotel). Make sure you have some flip flops or slippers for the room and then its not a problem 👌
