Run
by a pair of animated Tico twin brothers, this backpackers paradise is
located in three nearby buildings in Barrio Amon, each of
which is
covered in vibrant murals, and features dormitory and private rooms
with hot showers and orthopedic mattresses. The two smaller
buildings are perfect if you want a chilled-out atmosphere, though
revelers and partiers go ga-ga over the newest building, which has a
solar-heated freeform pool with swim-up bar, a rooftop bar-restaurant
that has someof the
best views in the city, and(are
you ready for this one?) a
mechanical bull. Seriously. Other perks
include free internet (and wi-fi), free phone calls to
North
America, free luggage storage, free lockers, airport pick-up (US$14)
and a fully bilingual staff.
