Good Info. Haven't used it yet- studying abroad next fall- but really good college student budget options.
Come on, now!

This guidebook is no where NEAR as bad as the other reviewers are making it out to be. It's just that it's scope is very defined: Budget travelers who are visiting the country for 1 or 2 weeks. I found the entries to be very honest and simple; some guidebooks fall all over themselves being "exactamundo" if you know what I mean. All I know, is that it was very helpful WHILE traveling there, especially in the restaurant listings.Another book I found helpful BEFORE I went, was a more general social history of the country, "Costa Rica: The Last Country the Gods Made."
Good for budget travellers

I reviewed numerous Costa Rica guide books and found this one to be one of the few that actually included plenty of budget options. And it is written in a fun style. Good times.
