Comfort & Convenience SJO Airport

4.82 out of 5 average rating, 767 reviews3 months ago

Marie was fantastic. She was incredibly responsive and very helpful w tour ideas. We did an all day tour to a coffee processing place, volcano, waterfall, and animal rescue. It was fantastic (other than the rescue center that felt more like a zoo and the cats looked very sad). Marie is lovely! At night the wind made all kinds of noise and it was a bit hard for me to fall asleep but other than that it was a pleasant experience. The grocery store is worth going to, very nice!

Casita Canto del Jilguero (Goldfinch Song)

4.75 out of 5 average rating, 20 reviews3 months ago

Good value, nice well maintained clean house with an electric gate, perimeter fence and multiple security cameras. Nice sheltered outdoor areas for sitting and dining on a rainy day. There is a river and mountain with tropical forest rising up behind the house. Old style electric shower head. It can be quite hot if you keep the flow of water low. Nice screened windows for good cross ventilation. Quite cool at night so no need for AC. Spent one morning at Blue Falls which was truly amazing. The kitchen had all the necessary utensils, air fryer, microwave and outdoor grill. Ran out of propane for the stove but Daniela sent over a full tank within an hour.

Casa Ala: confortable loft near airport SJO

4.86 out of 5 average rating, 95 reviews1 month ago

Carol’s place was exactly what we were looking for! After spending most of our trip further south, we needed a place to stay for the night before our flight out of San José. The place was easy to find, very convenient to the airport, and exactly as described. Very clean with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Surprisingly quiet for how close it was to the airport. Not much car traffic. Walking distance to a mini super and great restaurant, Tierra Fertil. We would stay again if we were spending more time in Alajuela. Thank you Carol!

Bright & Cozy Loft | King Bed & Balcony

4.76 out of 5 average rating, 33 reviews5 months ago

I always try to stay at Arbórea Flats when visiting my aging Mom in nearby Santa Ana because of the Auto Mercado next door and the generally peaceful atmosphere. However, I have stayed with Bee Suites many, many times but have never paid $100/night. All of the rooms in this complex are similar, but much, much cheaper. This room had a lovely balcony, but was not worth the extra cost, especially because of the barking dogs in the condo next door. Also, don't use the microwave! It is missing a piece under the moveable plate causing the plate to clank and shift while moving. This was not addressed during my stay. But overall, I was very happy with my stay.
