Hey guys…..A last minute glitch in my transportation leaves me needing to DRIVE to the Airport, and I wondered if anyone can tell me if there is a long-term and a short-term lot and if there are different lots, which one will I really need for a week-long stay, ALSO, is it COVERED, and is it fairly SECURE??
I have to BE there tomorrow morning (Wednesday 8/15), and I’m kinda out of time…..
Anybody know?
THANKS!!

Seems to me the car park at San Jose’s airport is the most expensive car park in Costa Rica so I’d try and avoid that …

We have stayed at and left our car many times at Hotel Margarita Bed-and-Breakfast in La Garita.
Address: 100 Metros antes del INCAE. Entrada calle privada mano izquierda (Margarita de La Garita) en frente de porton anaranjado de Apartamentos Palma Real.
City: San Jose Airport – La Garita de Alajuela
Phone: Costa Rica 2433-1280, 8390-2132 – USA 1-800-360-1703 – NL 040-401-2001
If you book one of their rooms (very nice and very affordable) on your way in or out of SJO, the parking is $3.00/day. Without a room reservation it may be a bit more, but you can check with Margarita at the above phone numbers. The parking is secure, but it is not covered. The taxi to the airport is about $16.00.
Right now their website makes it appear that the hotel is closed, but that is because the couple that owns the hotel have split up, he returned to Europe and he controls the web site.
I just spoke to Margarita this morning and she confirmed that she is indeed open, and business is good in spite of no website. Most of the people that stay there are returning guests, so they just call her direct.
Hope this helps.
If you have a contact at any of the car rental agencies near the airport, MAYBE they can help. Your vehicle will not be covered. They also have shuttle buses to the terminal.
