San Jose bus station

Hi, I was wondering if someone can tell me how far the San Carlos bus station is located from the bus station that serves the carribean coast?

if you are going from one bus station to another, the best way to do that is by taxi. just grab a taxi and tell him you want to go to san carlos (or wherever) and he will take you to the correct station. lots easier and only a few dollars.

Personally I would walk this one also but that is just me.

i have walked many times from one station to another or from a bus stop to a station, but it kind of depends on the amount of time between buses, luggage and how comfortable a person is in a foreign big city and their sense of direction.

it's not a bad walk, for sure, but taking a taxi is the easiest thing to do.
