I stayed at the hostel twice. Once with my friends and the other is when I took a solo trip to San Jose. Jane and the staff are so nice. I felt very welcome there and the breakfast is amazing. The hostel is comfortable and clean. When I made my second trip to San Jose, I already knew where I... More

I have had two wonderful stays at Hostel Urbano, and I would like to thank Jane and her fellow hosts! The hostel has a great vibe...very relaxing, comfortable, hip, and fun. It is charmingly decorated with an artistic flair, and the private room I stayed in was spacious, clean, and lovely. A fresh breakfast is served every morning, and during... More

Me and my girlfriend stayed for a weekend and have absolutely cothing bad to say about Hostel Urbano. Great location, great service, great staff! The accomodations are amazing and the the services they provide exceed our expectations. Had a great time staying here, relaxing in the backyard, chatting and hanging around with the owner Jane or some of the other... More

I've been travelling around Costa Rica for several years and have stayed in various hostels in San Jose, but Urbano is by far the best, and I've been to stay three times now. It is brand new and the building is stunning, with lots of photos and artwork hanging about, and a very cool 1970s and art deco aesthetic. The... More

We came here for the second time. The Villa is big, the private rooms and the dorms are nice, bright and clean and the mattresses are great. Its definetly worth staying here. It-s been one of the best places to stay at.The owner is lovely. She helps where ever she can and with whatever you need.

This has hands down been one of the best hostels I've stayed at. I encourage anyone that has the opportunity to be in San Jose, Costa Rica to stop by hostel urbano. The atmosphere and the hostel's decor and facilities are immaculate, but it is truly the people that make it the place that it is. They don't settle for... More

After a long day of travelling and a mistake with our booking at another hostel it was a huge relief to be greeted by Jane - she was so warm and welcoming. The hostel is beautiful- incredibly clean, open areas to chill, big kitchen, pool table, computers, tv, cute backyard, and decorated with an artsy modern vintage feel to it.... More

I can't recommend this place enough. From the minute you walk into Hostel Urbano, you're in amongst friends. The owner makes you feel right at home and you know she puts her heart and soul into making your stay a great one. Our stay came with breakfast in the morning, mmmm that Costa Rican coffee is good! The hostel itself... More
