Relaxing end to trip in Costa Rica

We stayed the night before our flight back to the Uk and went out for something to eat locally. Very comfortable room and garden area we could relax in. The host was very accommodating and collected us when we dropped our hire car off and dropped us back at the airport for our flight for $5 in the evening and $10 for an early morning transfer which we thought was very reasonable

Great little hotel for short stays

Small simple hotel with about six rooms. We definitely stay there again, an economical option. They provide eggs and fruit and toast for you to make your own breakfast. They also pick you up and drop you off at the airport for five dollars.

A small, spartan room w/bath. Very clean. Make your own breakfast was just fine. Very reasonable cost to pick us up at airport. Also enjoyed cost effective transportation to our car rental company. This place is good for a quick stay in the city.

Reasonable price for a short stay to catch an early morning flight. Property doesn’t look like much from the outside (probably for the better to keep it less conspicuous), but opens up and expands within. I was immediately greeted by staff who gave me useful info. Quite pleasant and friendly to chat with, could speak English well (though I spoke in Spanish). I had reserved a car ride to the airport the following morning 4:45 am. They were available on the dot (actually the truck was stored within the residence), pleasant ride and conversation. The driver had gone to college in London… pura vida. Price was no longer $5 but $10 usd. Still, this was cheaper than the going rate for an uber.. room was clean with ac available. Shower was fine with responsive on demand hot water. Overall I recommend. Will stay again if given the opportunity

We stayed coming into San Jose Airport 1 day and 1 day going out ..It is a nice property for a day or 2 ,not alot to see except for park and catherdral nearby..Our shuttle picked us up early in La Fortuna,so we arrived there early...We contacted by WhatsApps and he let us in to store luggage..We needed to use the bathroom bad and he told we had to find someplace else to use ..Rooms were not available ..We were are older and cant hold it like we use too lol..If it had been me i would have offered to use one of rooms that hadnt been cleaned yet ...We had to walk 6 or 7 blocks to find a restaurant and eat there to use restroom ..That was only negative thing we had happen while in Costa Rica..

My travel partner and I had a great one night stay here at Alice y Juancito. Esteban was very courteous and welcoming. The location is like 12 mins from SJO which was extremely convenient. The neighborhood was walkable and not very touristy. As a matter of fact, we didn’t run into many tourists at all around here. The property itself is so cutely decorated and cozy, we felt very comfortable here. We’d absolutely stay here again.
