Hotel close to the airport. We stayed for 1 night because we had an early flight. They offer shuttle service to the airport which was great. We were able to walk to a close by bar to watch the Costa Rica football game. Very safe to walk and restaurants and bars close by. Rooms are clean. Breakfast is very minimal but is enough to fill you up. This is our 2nd time staying there for 1 night. Very convenient.

We had a late flight in to CR so we found this place for the night so we could pick up our rental the next morning. Its all we needed, a clean comfy bed, ac, and shower. They provided a shuttle from the airport to the hotel. On our way out, we came back and appreciated the fridge too.
