Write an entry Entries about this placeMeh... just a city. by SwillettAfter a $23 and 40 minute taxi ride (mucho trafico!) from the airport, we arrived at Tranquilo Backpackers. $24 for a tiny private room with shared bathroom, but the atmosphere is nice and the reception people are super friendly. TIP: Decided to stay in Alajuela when we were flying out, as it was closer than San Jose on our way back from Manuel Antonio, and it saved us the 40 min taxi ride to get to the airport! over 3 years agoUntitled by jamesthongSan Jose is incredible, but get out of the city and go into the forests and on the beach. They are the best parts of this country over 3 years agoGet out as fast as possible! by AlCosta Rica is great; San Jose is not. Your best move is to get as far away as possible as soon as you land. Not trying to be mean to San Jose here – even locals will tell you that San Jose is not why anyone goes to Costa Rica. over 5 years agoin n out by ChrisQuibelldidnt spend much time in san jose, but from what I saw it looked like a standard city……streets, mcDonalds and some palm trees. Again, the people were friendly, but some areas definitly look sketchy. Make sure you knw the area you are in. over 6 years agoSee all 17 entries |
