Mi wife and I spend our first and last night at the Coconut House in Alajuela. We chose the small , family run hotel because it is located close to the airport and ideal for arriving and leaving Costa Rica. The hotel is located in a quiet suburb of Alajuela.

But the room cost about 25 bucks, it was spotlessly clean and I was able to buy a delicious dinner at... more
