I had a wonderful experience at Pibi Boreal hotel! The location is perfect—very close to the SJO airport, which made my travel so convenient. One of the best parts is the free shuttle service to and from the airport, which was punctual and easy to use. The hotel itself is spotless. Every corner, even the tiniest area, was incredibly clean and well-maintained. It’s clear that cleanliness is a top priority here, and I really appreciated that. Overall, this was a comfortable, stress-free stay. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, convenient place near the airport! ##### Liang Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine Aug 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nidia and Mathieu are incredible hosts, who made our family feel welcome and comfortable during our one-night stay. ##### Christine Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Priscilla Jan 16, 2025 Liked: Amenities What a beautiful and welcoming property!
