Casa Garitas GuestHouse & Car Rental - Free SJO Airport Shuttle, hotel in Alajuela

Casa Garitas GuestHouse & Car Rental - Free SJO Airport Shuttle features air-conditioned rooms in Río Segundo. This guest house provides free private parking and free shuttle service.

Casa Garitas was the perfect place for a stay the night before an early flight out of SJO. Christopher and family were very responsive and helpful. The hotel is a family business, and has a very welcoming family feel. It's ~15 minutes away from the airport, and in a residential neighborhood, but the free shuttle service they provide is invaluable. For a family of 4, their family room with 4 beds was an amazing find. Highly recommend.

    The apartment is spotlessly clean, quiet with a comfortable bed and a warm shower. Olga and Adrian are wonderful hosts, and the room was equipped with all conveniences like a TV, fans, fully stocked coffee and tea facilities, filter water and a fridge. They have gone above and beyond to make their guests stays comfortable with all sorts of extra details. Olga brought us an unexpected platter of fresh fruits in the morning which was greatly appreciated!

    Nice little boutique hotel in a great location, close to the airport. We only spent one night there. Although many of the rooms are adjacent to the shared kitchen and dining area, the evening and night were very quiet. The room was equipped with everything we needed. Thankfully, we received lots of helpful tips from Esteban. Great price-performance ratio!

    What a Lovely place. A perfect first night if you are looking for an authentic and welcoming place near the airport. The place is very charming and you feel like being in a little jungle. The room is spotless clean, very spacious, and well furnished. I loved the decoration and the little attentions in the room for the arrival : sweets on the table and in the kitchen. And finally, Keneth is really a great host, very kind, helpful and attentive. Muchas gracias !

    Jean is a great host, starting when he picked me up from the airport. The location in a quiet, safe neighborhood is great, with shopping nearby. The kitchen access means you can cook or heat your leftovers. The back yard is spectacular. And the cats are incredibly friendly.

    Great location in a safe/quiet neighbourhood very close to the airport. We had a spare afternoon so walk into the Alajuela town centre which has a lot of history. Breakfast was superb. Fresh fruit, eggs, toast and as much Costa Rican coffee as you like. Rooms were a good size and shower was hot and had good power.

    This was absolutely perfect. It’s very clean and charming, I felt safe and the staff were wonderful. breakfast is basic but I was happy with it. I don’t understand the negative reviews here… seems like people expect the Hilton… well, it’s not that. And if that’s what you want maybe don’t book a cheaper bed and breakfast? It was everything I needed for my shorty stay. Muchas gracias

    Great location for airport travel with some great local restaurants close by. Safe and quiet area. Great hostel owner, Katty helps with everything including very fair taxi rides to the airport. would highly recommend for anyone coming to or from San Jose airport for a night. Just one more is make sure you have either dollars or cash but there is also an atm close by.
