Can I use public buses to get around Costa Rica?

Public buses can be used to go to most places in Costa Rica.  This is how locals without cars typically get around.  Public buses are generally safe, but not as secure with your belongings.  They are not as comfortable and slower than shuttle transfers.  In most cases, you will not be dropped off at your hotel, which means you will have to catch a cab to the bus stop or from it.
