This backpackers hostel has a great location, right on the main street, making it convenient for exploring the town on foot. the rooms are spacious and clean, with decent, sized bathrooms. the hostel also offers a well, stocked kitchen to use.

The common area can be quite noisy, especially at night, as the rooms open onto an outside social area with little soundproofing.

The value for money at Arenal Container was unbeatable, especially considering the modern and spotlessly clean rooms. The location was perfect, right on the main strip, and the staff were incredibly kind and friendly, always ready to help with tours and getting around.

The breakfast experience could benefit from a bit more variety.

Staff is outstanding, especially Daniel, who helped with tours and answered all questions. Location is excellent and offers on-site tours. Dorms have private bathrooms with hot showers. Food at the restaurant is delicious and reasonably priced. Good value for the price.

I absolutely loved my stay at the Arenal Container Hostel! The modern design and cleanliness really impressed me. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and I appreciated having my own light and plug socket. The bathroom was top-notch, the best I've seen in my travels. The staff, especially Maria Josue and Fernanda, were incredibly friendly and made me feel like part of a community. The location was perfect, right in the heart of everything. I highly recommend this hostel for an amazing experience!

I stayed at Arenal Container for a few days while exploring the area. The check-in was seamless, and the room was clean with a well-equipped kitchen. Daniel went above and beyond, helping us with tour bookings and giving great recommendations. The hostel had a relaxed vibe, with plenty of places to hang out and a supermarket and restaurants nearby. Definitely one of the top hostels I've stayed at!

Would recommend this hotel.

loved my stay at this centrally located hostel in la fortuna! the funky design of the rooms and the recycled tire seating gave it a unique vibe. the friendly staff and guests made it feel like a welcoming community. air-con and hot water were unexpected luxuries. overall, a great experience at arenal container.

Noisy street opposite the hostel.

Perfect hostel, helpful staff, central location, great social area, well-equipped rooms.

Nothing that I didn't like.

Great hostel with container rooms, friendly staff, and well-organized tours. Delicious and affordable authentic food at the nearby restaurant. Comfortable beds and spacious bathrooms. Perfect location near many restaurants. Owner provided contact number for any issues.

Friendly and funny staff, creating a great atmosphere. Good location on main road but away from busy area. Clean and new hostel with well-stocked kitchen. Compact dorms, but cozy with lockers and plenty of plugs. Comfy beds and spacious bathroom.

I had a fantastic stay at Arenal Container! I came to La Fortuna with no plans, but the staff, especially Jason, helped me come up with an awesome itinerary in just 30 minutes. They work with great tour companies and the hostel is in a central location with shops nearby. The rooms are comfortable with air conditioning and a nice bathroom. The fully equipped kitchen and free coffee were a bonus. The hostel is secure and has night security for peace of mind. I highly recommend this hotel.

Strongly recommend this hotel.

I really got great value for my money, the room was comfortable and the location was perfect, right next to many restaurants. The staff at Arenal Container were incredibly friendly and helpful, making my stay even more enjoyable.

Menu for breakfast could have had more variety.

The hostel had a unique concept with container rooms, which I found really cool. The staff was friendly and helpful in organizing tours and shuttles. the location was great as it was near many restaurants and shops.

The staff seemed more focused on selling tours rather than running a hostel. The $5 and $10 deposits for key and towels felt excessive.

The staff here were incredibly friendly and helpful, always eager to chat and provide assistance. The hostel itself was very clean and comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen. I also appreciated the fact that they had lockers available, allowing me to keep my belongings safe.

While I enjoyed my stay overall, I did encounter a few minor issues. The staff seemed more focused on selling tours than running the hostel, which could be a bit off-putting.

Clean rooms and bathrooms. Good sized bathroom with good air conditioning. Staff does an amazing job personalizing your stay, welcoming and friendly. Great location for getting around. Package security. Affordable. Perfect for backpackers. Great atmosphere and cool people. Highly recommended.

Loved the clean facilities and friendly staff. Convenient location near great restaurants. A/C in rooms. Next door restaurant offers affordable breakfast.

Felt at home here, no complaints.
