2. Private or Shared room, Turrialba:

Like a stay at a host family offers its advantages, so does a stay in a more private room. It all depends on your wishes and character. On-Stage works closely together with a company that runs Spanish schools and hostels. Their cosy hostels offer shared rooms that meet at least basic Western conditions. You will have access to a shared kitchen, a shared living room wireless internet, and proper sanitation. For an additional charge you can also stay in a private room.

Why arrange housing through On-Stage?

On-Stage puts a lot of effort in expanding and maintaining its network of housing possibilities. They are reviewed on safety, hygiene, comfort and location. Using On-Stage to arrange your housing eliminates many hassles. Before arriving you will receive information and photos about your accommodation.

On-Stage knows the language and culture, and is in constant communication with the accommodation owners. For this reason many potential problems are avoided. In case something goes wrong, On-Stage will mediate and help to find a solution. Furthermore, On-Stage provides reasonable and reliable payments to the accommodation owners, and by taking away the financial aspect of your stay between you and your host family/guesthouse, you will have a more equal and friendly relationship with them.
