FYI on SL. I just got back from my first trip to CR and I stayed at the SL based on the chatter here.
1. You may want to avoid a courtyard room. They're adjacent to bar so it's really noisy until about 12am.
2. Girls get to work early over there. I was having breakfast at 10am after my first night and there were already 4 or 5 girls working the bar.
3. Lack of spanish skills is a drawback. It won't interfere with you getting anything done transaction wise, but you're not going to be able to build much rapport or do a through interview before hand (you'll need to trust your gut instincts).
Thanks Travelmutt.
The room I reserved is in the modern wing.I am trying to learn Spanish in my free time but it's not the easiest thing to do.

The verbs are getting me bogged down. Can't even decide whether pago despues is correct or pagare despues is

Jokes aside, I do find it fun to learn a new language. Not on the first trip but hopefully by the time I get there for my second trip, I will have enough Spanish to carry out a decent conversation.
