Lonely Planet review

If you want to do the whole tourist thing, this is the cheapest place to buy a hammock (Hecho en Nicaragua) or a 'Pura Vida' T-Shirt (Made in China). For something decidedly more Costa Rican, export-quality coffee beans can be had at a fraction of the price you'll pay in tourist shops. It's also a great spot for a cheap lunch - you'll find a variety of restaurants and sodas serving casados, tamales, seafood and everything in between.
