"i took one of spirit airlines super cheap latin american flights that get you into the airports at really awkward times, like 1:30am in this instance. buses dont run at that time and the main part of the airport was closed, so i walked around to the front entrance where there were a couple security guards at a desk.
i asked them if there was anywhere i could nap for a few hours until buses started in the morning. they checked me out very carefully, asked me where i was coming from, where i was going and what was i doing in el salvador. they checked my passport, ran my bag through a metal detector and then told me that the main airport was closed but there was an empty hallway behind them that i could sleep in.
it was floor sleeping only, so not the most comfortable, but it was dark so i did sleep fairly good. and i definitely felt safe, the security guards there do their jobs."
