"The pool is surprisingly chilly which is nice for some but too cold for others but it's a very pleasant meeting place with several loungers and seating to enjoy some totally private outdoors."

“I see a practical choice in Alajuela, with its proximity to the airport and complimentary shuttle service. Its key asset is the location, a short walk to the bus station, central plaza, and local restaurants. The pool and seating areas struck me as particularly welcoming for travelers seeking connection.”
