Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, San Jose Aeropuerto, Costa Rica

10/10 Excellent
"The property was convenient to airport and good for easy freeway access. The restaurant served complementary breakfast, and lunch and dinner options. The food we found was good to very good. Nicely stocked bar. The large pool was like a small oasis. Parking had security. The price point was good. Will be using the Country Inn Suites again."
