It's very basic. Small. We were infested with roaches and flying bugs in our bathroom. I guess to be expected when you're in the jungle. I rated a 3/5 because staff was responsive to our needs. But glad to be done. They don't even have holders for you to place soap or toothpaste

Reviewed By ubuntucloneen

Staying at Pensions was an absolute treat, the chilled out atmosphere, super friendly staff (Shout out to Nina and MJ ?), very comfy rooms and the best location in town. Staying here was a cherry ? on top of the cake that is MonteVerde. I also had the good fortune to get to know Ran and his wife while staying there, they're a one in a million family.

Room2Board Hostel and Surf School

Room2Board is a newly built boutique hostel and surf school located on the Central Pacific Coast in Jaco Beach, Costa Rica. Its eco-friendly design provides adventure travelers, surfers, and backpackers a clean, safe and affordable place to stay. Room2Board was designed to have the social atmosphere and affordability of a traditional hostel and surf camp along with the amenities and style of a boutique hotel. From the moment you check-in you will feel apart of our global family. Please note we have a 2 day minimum on the weekends and a 2 day minimum over Semana Santa, March 27- April 5th and Christmas.

Beachfront hostel with all the amenities

Reviewed By KathleenH25

Room2Board is a class act beachfront hostel that has claimed its own spot in Jaco. Away from the business of the main strip, Room2Board offers comfortable shared or private rooms with a view in front of a pumping surf break. The bathrooms include showers; additionally, there are common cooking areas, outdoor showers, a beautiful pool, restaurant and bar. For remote workers the co-working space is bar-none. You can stash your stuff in a locker to keep it safe, rent a board from the surf shop if you need one, take a lesson, book a tour, you name it. The prices are competitive and a real deal for what you get. If you are a budget traveler, stay in a shared room for under $20. If price isn't an object, stay more luxuriously in a private room. The owner Brian takes pride in his masterpiece accommodation and his friendly staff hails from all over the world. You will be content to just hang in the bar/restaurant area all day long or relaxing in the state of the art pool. Hands down one of the best places to stay in Jaco. As an experienced hosteler, I can confidently say that Room2Board's value can not be beat.

One of the best experiences in Jaco

Reviewed By Tephy_Guzman

This was my first time traveling solo and staying at a hostel so I was pretty nervous but the staff was very nice from the moment I checked in to the moment I checked out. It was raining quite badly when I arrived but that didn't stop me from enjoying my time there. They offer a totally unique experience in cylinder rooms and I cannot wait to go back!

Cute but Noisy

Cons; Noisey, ear plus and sleeping pills required! We had a private room with a shared bathroom on the ground floor and had people knocking all evening as they hadn't taken their keys (not the fault of the hostel but I guess a bit of an issue with the way the rooms are set up. Pros; Great pool and Mexican Restaurant attached (his homemade sauces are incredible. Free breakfast is a real bonus. Lovely dining area with loads of books and hammocks to chill out on.

My room had a fantastic view; Johnathan and his family were great hosts. It was easy to book tours through them at a reasonable price. It is only a 10-minute walk to town if you wish to visit the restaurants/ bars, and there is a shop 5 mins away if you want to to pick up some snacks.
