The Nirvana Hostal was the perfect oasis for me before my departure and Kenneth was a super friendly host. He also offered me the chance to stay for the day as my flight wasn't until the evening. So I was able to rest and relax. I had dinner nearby in the evening and breakfast at a soda. Both on Kenneth's good recommendation. The apartment also had its own small kitchen with coffee and tea included. I have already made a reservation, will be back and am happy to recommend Nirvana Apartement to others.

Uber ride from the apartment to the airport took less than 10 minutes. Located in a quiet, safe neighborhood in walking distance to downtown Alajuela. Apartment was spacious, clean, and had a washing machine and three comfy beds. Olga was exceptionally kind and ensured that we had everything we needed and more, e.g. coffee, creamer, and snacks too!

The owner was so kind and accommodating. We stayed upon our arrival and departure to Costa Rica. The B&B was very close to the airport. We arrived late (the first stay) and had to leave super early on both stays. The host stayed up late to greet us, and made us an early breakfast on both days. She was extremely pleasant. The location was a bit challenging to find but with a good GPS, you will be fine. There are also places to eat within walking distance.

Location was good, close to airport- a cheap Uber ride for less than $4 to the airport was helpful. The late overnight staff member (after 10pm) was nice and friendly, as were the morning female staff members... this was in stark contrast to the guy who checked us in on arrival. The staff at the parking lot a block away were friendly and easy going. The balcony was cute and you can see the mountains in the distance.

hostess was amazing. she went above and beyond in helping me with many heavy pieces of luggage as I am disabled with back injuries. she prepared food to my preference (vegan) and offered to cook more. the room was adequate, quiet and clean. the bathroom was spotless, the shower had good water pressure and was hot. the location is great to get to the airport and the price is very affordable.

Great location close to airport and is quieter than staying in San Jose. Very clean and lovely common sitting area and courtyard as well as kitchen with coffee and breakfast available all day. Easy and cheap to get bus into San Jose and they will arrange shuttle to airport etc. very helpful and quick to reply. Lots of good restaurants, ice cream parlours and bars close by.

Location is ideal for incoming and outgoing overnight stays within short 5min travel time to international airport. It is a proudly operated family business that is spotlessly clean and adds personal touch.
