Not the easiest place to get to, Port Jim, but when here, Osa is awesome. Scarlet macaws as common as and squawkier than crows. Hopped off the bus from Dominical at the T of Chacarita (a gas station & a diner): 2 hours plus for the connecting bus, so stuck out the thumb. Jose pulls over with his near-empty tomato truck. He gathers the groceries for the shop under Oro Verde (green gold & red gold). As long as I didn't mind going round the houses first in search of a crop of the red gold, I was welcome to bump along the back road to Port Jim with him. The hostel's central, clean & comfy enough, and aye a cheery hello when I popped my neb in at the shop. An extra mark for Jose's hospitality shuttle.

Stayed her for week until my new apartment was ready. Great staff. They gave me the room for $15.00 a night , included a tv , cold shower , but after a hot day it is great and it wakes you up in the morning . Get a room toward the mail street it will be cooler i stayed in the carate room . It is in the center of town , so everything is easy to get to.

When we arives after 12 hours of sitting in a bus we had to wait an hour before the owner came. He told us the hostel was full booked (eventhough we had booked) so he arranged an other hostel and told us to make it up to us the next morning. The next morning he took us on a crocodile tour, gave us a spacious room with free ac and he made a nice price for us. After the 2 day corcovado tour we went back to his hostel and they gave us another (spacious) but less nice room. The room was moist, could use some paint and the light didn't work...

I spent two night at Oro Verde Hostel. For this price I got everything I needed. A comfortable clean bed in a shared room for 4 persons. All rooms had sufficient fans so at night the heat was no issue which I highly appreciated. The Hostel owner Juan is very friendly and helpful. If you have any issue, he will help you. I had several (cell phone broke down so no alarm clock, no universal charger, he let me use his computer).

All in all, a nice place to stay. There were 5 people staying in the room I was in, and all of us thought that the location was perfect, rooms were relatively clean and prices were really good. The owner who went by the name of simply 'jan' was absolutely incredible. Took us to feed Crocodiles and Caymans and even went out in the dark to see florescent Plankton. The only bad part about this hostel is that the room we were in (room 5) had a rancid smell coming from the small bathroom we had in the room. It was a very horrible smell and made just walking around in the room difficult. However, the other rooms that friends stayed in smelt absolutely fine. All in all, good hostel.
