The roads depend on where in the country you are. Out on the Nicoya peninsula, you better have a jeep because small cars have fallen into pot holes and were never seen again
And when renting cars, expect extortion from rental car companies on insurance. When I booked, the rates were surprisingly cheap. Then I found out why...when you get there, they make all their profit on the insurance. They won't let you use credit card insurance, even if you have a letter (which I had).
We drove around Nicoya peninsula in a rented Toyota Tercel or similar. Had one flat tire. No other issues.
But...we avoided the back roads and stayed on pavement. There were a few dirt roads that we passed on.
