Very efficient check in and check out. Shuttle was great. Nice facilities but locating a nice place to eat without a car was difficult. Also found the prices in snack shop to be very high.

Fairfield by Marriott San Jose Airport Alajuela
Nice restaurant slightly expensive. Breakfast was good but bacon would have made it much better than cold ham slices. Room is good but needs a recliner. Only has a desk chair - not that comfortable while in room waiting. Staff very friendly and some had excellent english. Shuttle from and to airport ...
