My guess is that this will be the latest attempt at a makeover for the White House.
They don't give a location, but that one could make sense.
I just learned this morning that the White House has been renamed "Grand Tara". As previously posted the new owners are the same owners that own the Beacon Hotel in Escazu centro.
http://www.grandtarahotel.com/aboutus.htmlThat would seem to rule out it becoming the location of Solid Gold San Jose.
"Word on the street" is that Greengo has signed on as concierge and will be advising guests of the the freindly and benevolent attitude Ticos have towards gringos, the safety of San Jose as well as the high food hygiene standards practiced in restaurant, the first class medical care available at the local CAJA facilities as well as the safety of the pharmaceuticals dispensed at those clinics and hospitals and the other virtues of paradise. There is some concern among management if the tourist will be able to decipher some of the "
Greengo speak" that he will sprinkle in his presentations.
He is a piece of work - I vacilate between being facinated by his posts, and wanting to say "For christs sake, don't make me get out my decoder ring"
Good Info; thanks ID -
Tara (I'll always call it that) is one of those places you would think would be sucessful - but that has not proven to be the case - distance from the gulch (for years, starting in the mid 90's, we stayed in the area, at Pico Blanco, but its just too "geographicaly undesirable), pricing, lack of stuff to do, a poor economy limiting potential guests?
I don't know, but you would think there would be a market for what they are offering - but that has really not proven to be the case.
