Description
Me, Andy, and my wifi Lorena like to meet and know people and cultures and also tell about ours.
Our location is in an artistic neighborhood of San Jose Costa Rica called Barrio Escalante. It has a different vibe than other parts of the city. It is a more hip and trendy place for young people. There are many cafes, shops, and art galleries around.
And it is important to tell that it is a safe and clean neighborhood.
In our hostel, we also want a place where people have cultural interaction, artistic events, and a very social atmosphere but not a party atmosphere.
