Situated in Río Segundo, the recently renovated Airport Green Studio features accommodation 35 km from Poas National Park and 5.9 km from Alejandro Morera Soto Stadium. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The accommodation provides full-day security and a housekeeping service for guests. I only stayed here for one night, but it left such a deep impression on me. I arrived early, feeling exhausted from travel and a little unwell, and the room was already ready for check in - something I was incredibly grateful for. But what truly made this stay unforgettable was the family hosting the place. Their kindness and care were absolutely extraordinary. They were there for every little question, provided me with everything I needed, and made me feel not just welcomed, but genuinely cared for. It was the kind of warmth and generosity that’s rare to find - I almost felt like I had become a part of their family. Thanks to them, I had a perfect rest and a smooth trip the next morning. I’ve never stayed anywhere quite like this before. The kindness I experienced here was truly something out of this world :)
