Puerto Viejo to San Jose

When I returned to San Jose, I was not able to catch the bus leaving 11am so I have to get later one. I arrived at around 8:30. I walked to the hostel from the bus terminal, but the street was dark and sketchy until you go to main street. They drop you off at same station above.
