Negotiate the room rate at a hotel for a 3 month stay. Access to internet, maid service, laundry service and breakfast is a big plus....also having the desk clerk taking messages for you is important. |

You can sometimes find apartments for short-term leases, and the hotel rincon, near SL, has an apartment it rents by the week. |

Here's the hotel Brother Mongeral mentioned. www.hotelrincondesanjose.com A "Search" here will turn up other alternatives (VistaLinda, etc.). |

Last I'd heard......Hotel Rincon was NOT chica friendly; seems to attract the eco-tourists. It's directly across the street from Cafe Mundo. |

Best bet is an apartment. Scotland, Sudamer, Vista Linda all chica friendly. |

Contact Matt at the Hotel Amistad. Location is good, the bar is excellent. No putas in the lobby (which I think is good) though it's certainly chica-friendly, he has some very large suites & I've run into several Canadians spending 6 weeks or more there & all have been very positive. /dddick |

There's usually some "long termers" at the Hotel Castillo, as well. |

I haven't seen any reports on this hotel in a while but the last I heard was that the HOTEL Rincon was not chica friendly HOWEVER if you stayed in their APARTMENT you could pretty much come and go as you wished. I don't know if that is still true but that's what I heard.

Furnished apts are the way to go for a 3 month stay. Scotland is good for this setup. BKTUNA/Boyd I am never going home |

Pro.....You may well be correct. I wasn't aware they had an apartment. Everytime I walk past the place, I see lots of eco-tourists coming and going. Pro.....I noticed on another thread, you mentioned you sometimes stay at the Nuevo Johnson. You never struck me as a "Nuevo Johnson kind of guy," not that there's anything wrong with that. I had you figured for a "Presidente or Sportsmens Lodge kind of guy." 
Sort of like trying to match a face to someone's voice.
