Situated within 32 km of Poas National Park and 3.1 km of Alejandro Morera Soto Stadium, Toucan Hostel features rooms in Alajuela City. Staff was always really friendly. The accommodations were clean. I had a private room with shared bathroom and loved it. It was close to the airport which was nice after a long day of travel to get there. Breakfast from the food truck was really good and affordable.

Set 32 km from Poas National Park, Casa Carmen offers accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking. It was actually a very comfortable stay. The owner was very helpful. I timed it, and it took 15 min to walk to the airport. The room was very clean and comfortable. Alajuela has cool nights, so lack of AC was not a problem. Great budget option for late arrivals or early morning departures.

Located within 36 km of Poas National Park and 6.2 km of Parque Viva in Alajuela City, Around Juan Santa María provides accommodation with seating area and a kitchenette. We loved how close this property is to the airport but the best part was meeting Yadira, the very lovely owner. She is so friendly and welcoming. A great introduction to Costa Rica.
