If this is the Adventure Inn that I'm familiar with then it is not particularly close to downtown. In fact that Adventure Inn is located close to the Cariari and actually much closer to the airport...

Red,
IMHO, this topic might fit better under either the "CR Travel Advice" or the "Other Areas" threads. This section, in my view at least, is intended more for announcements of the "I'll be in town... -

Maple,
First, I should say this discussion is really in the wrong thread but, just to answer these last few questions, I'll address them here.

Maple Red,
The reason you found virtually nothing is that there is virtually nothing there (at least as far as decent P4P). The Tamarindo Diria is the hotel ($120/nt?) I hear most mongers talking... -

Nixon, I think it is YOU who needs to get a grip.
A) It's Prolijo (as in Prolific), not Projilo.

I don't know what the pricing policies at hotels in other countries you've stayed in might be, but from what I've seen in CR, the rate is usually NOT the same for 1 or 2 persons or at least certainly...

That has worked for me at some non-monger friendly hotels (e.g. the Don Carlos) but it does have certain drawbacks:
1) The chica might have to check-in with you when you first check-in.
2) Even... -

Nixon, don't take this personally because this is no longer about the Balmoral and what they charge but rather the larger issue of "guest fees" in general, regardless of hotel.
At least, when a... -

Nixon, not to belabor the point, but even if you only bring back ONE chica per day that $15-20 (+TAX) extra is not insignificant. That added amount that you pay to the hotel is not that much less...
