    Toucan hostel is close to the airport and there is everything you need close by as well. A local shop sells drinks, coffee and snacks. I arrived early and they had my room ready. I was so appreciative of their kindness. It is easy to get into...

    My #1 choice whenever flying in or out of SJO. I have stayed several times over many years, always consistently good value. I highly recommend.

    The place is less than 5 mins drive from the airport. It was a really good to stay if you have a late night flight arrival. We arrived to SJO airport at 1am. The owner gave us a WhatsApp number for a driver so we didn’t get caught up in the crazy...
