Sarchi is a quick bus ride from San Jose where you can buy lots of souvenirs and a very walkable town where you can explore for a day. 
The city is famous for the ox carts seen all over Costa Rica! There's also a larger than life ox cart in the center of town.

Stayed here for an overnight prior to flying back to Canada. Everything was wonderful including the food at the restaurant. The shuttle picked us up at the domestic airport and dropped us off the next morning - both on time with no issues. Highly recommend this hotel.
