All the beds and appointments in any of the rooms at the Sportsman's Lodge are very nice.

The larger deluxe rooms are of course larger and more plush but of course cost more.

Been there. I never stayed there but did partake for a 30 minute session one time. It was OK for the price.

Basically this is a brothel with a few rooms. So they can call it a "hotel".

FYI....

There are not too many Gringos who will stay at the either of the Holiday Inns in San Jose. Too expensive for what it's worth, not chica friendly (when you have to pay a $ 50.00 chica fee to bring a...

The Nuevo Johnson Hotel is not half bad in my opinion- especially for the low price of around $ 12.00 a night....I have stayed there many times....never any problems.

There are stores on the...

Again, I have stayed at and recommend the Nuevo Johnson Hotel, 8 th St. and 2 nd Ave. Stones throw from the Macado Central - central market.

Fairly clean Tico hotel, with private room, double...

But to take a taxi from say the Hampton Inn - which is only about a mile or so from the airport should only cost you...

The hotels that Victorn told you about are not close to the airport. They are near downtown San Jose - mostly in what is called Barro Amon ( a secton of San Jose that is around the Zoo)- all of...

I had the occasion to visit the La Amastad Hotel this last week while in San Jose. I had gone there to check it out for a future visit.

Update on the Hotel Royal Dutch

My buddy from Ohio has arrived here Tues. night in San Jose. I tried to get a room for him set up at the Royal Dutch Hotel, and thought things were all set up for...

I was in the Royal Dutch Hotel today and checked on a room for my buddy who will be here in a few days.

Personally I stay in a Tico hotel downtown which is very cheap, and does not have any air...

Diesel E,

If I was able to be the personal gynecologist (hope you spelled that correctly- as I copied you) then I guess that would be OK. At least I would get to see 'a little pussy' every now...

The Hotel Don Carlos is an overpriced family type of hotel that does not cater to mongers or P4P gals.

You will do better to look elsewhere........

This is my opinion....if you have a differing...

I am just back from a 35 day trip to Costa Rica.

Spent 30 days in Quepos housesitting for a Canadain couple. Great house, lovely pool, and all FREE. Nice deal, but I got kind of bored being in...

Not sure if they have lockboxes or not. I stayed in one of the very small rooms with bunk beds. It did not have a...
