If you are worried about staying in a place known for being a monger hotel your alternative is to stay in a different area, and at a place that is not guest friendly.

Change of plans. Found out the Hyatt is not guest friendly. I need recommendations on a guest friendly Airbnb or Hotel near the Taormina. Also is the Taormina well known as a monger hotel in Costa Rica. I hesitate to use it because of this. If the quality of women is not available there or nearby, does anyone recommend a reliable escort site or twitter account? Thank you gentlemen.

Coming back to San Jose in February. Been a long time. HDR was really cranking a few years ago. I think I will be staying at the Hyatt Place Pinares, a business thing. Any one know about the guest policy there? They have nothing on their website. What is the best way to travel back and forth to San Pedro? Are taxis expensive or should I use Uber. Last time there I used the buses. I appreciate any info from my mongering comrades. Thanks.

Closing time may vary depending on the place, the big issue is those places that are going with the vaccination requirement versus those that are not. If they don't check (although they follow other health measures) they can only operate at 50% capacity, if they do check and only admit people that are vaccinated then they can operate at 100% capacity. However in January they all have to only admit vaccinated people.

Hi,
I am wondering has anyone heard anything recently if or when it will open.
P.S. What time is closing time there now? I think I heard. Everything closes at 11.

Posts: 133Thanks for the detailed trip report. We need few more of these. Appreciate you sharing the info with us.
So, would you say that next time you would stay in Taormina instead of Castillo. I am finding Castillo prices to be too expensive, I liked it pre pandemic but it is no where even close to worth the $$$ they are asking these days.

2. No cover charge and no required drink to buy. The girls are all well behaved and don't bother you for lady drinks.
Enjoy.

I haven't been to Taormina bar and casino yet so wondering how it works. Are punters staying at SL and Castillo welcome to enter the bar and casino? Does one need to order a drink and survey the girls or can one even hang around without buying a drink right away? Do the girls approach you in the bar or do they hassle for lady drinks?
Will appreciate any input. Thanks.

I just noticed someone below posted that flyers were being handed out that HDR might reopen later this week? Anyone else want to chime in on this if it is true or not? It would definitely be welcome news.

Please try to get your arrival time in Costa Rica to be morning or EARLY afternoon.
When the 16:00 HR chine, it is the arrival time of a lot of flights from all over. The immigration desk gets overburdened even with all the booths occupied by officers and DO NOT successfully deal with the crowds.
You will probably get up to a 3 hours snake line before you pass immigration.
While you are waiting in the passageway sometimes all the way back to your gate you will see some people walking quickly past you. These are the Costa Rican citizen and permanent residents.
For you, it will be just exactly the reverse of what happens in Miami.
Patience. And follow my advice. Don't take a late afternoon arrival in Costa Rica.
I had a friend from Germany, took a 10 hours flight across the pond, waited 3 hours for immigration, then a 5-hour drive to tamarindo in a small bus.
He ain't coming back to C.R.
Mellow.
