Be fair Hank. That entire section of San Jose was without water due a major main break. It was not the fault of the Morazan.

HDR had water

It's like having one bad meal at a restaurant you like. You go back next time and everything is great, most of the time.

I had two MP chicas come over one night and I was told $25 for the 2nd chica . I normally only have one chica so it wasn`t a big deal.

I can't remember, do they have Wifi at the Morazan?

yes how sweet it is

Not as of Nov.8, 2008 and it probably hasn't been added. Only 1 computer available(when it works) However I enjoy the internet cafes

I have seen rates for the Morazon in the 20 to 25 dollar range. I presume that is either hourly or for some other block of time. Would someone confirm this for me.

Thanks for the info

I have never come across that kind of rate before. But I will be arriving there today and will ask.

Thanks DRD

I would appreciate any intel - or will look into it myself when I arrive next week.

I just got back from my trip and it was a great time. I was told they do not have hourly rates. They do have wifi but you will only get a signal on floors 1-3. I was on the 4th and I could not hold the connection. Ricky Ricardo is a Jacka$$ as usual and I will be writing a letter to Jose the manager thanking him for the nice stay and let him know that he needs to have a long chat with Ricardo.

A MORE RECENT REVIEW

I just got back this week from my last stay at the Morazan, at the very least the last time I'll arrive in the evening to see whether they have my reservation.

It's been said on the board before, hell I've said it before, If you are arriving in the evening, there is a good chance that this hotel will have "lost" your reservation. Lost means they gave it away to someone without a reservation who showed up earlier, either for the sure thing or more likely because they offered a higher rate.

We confirmed our reservations by telephone with Fernando the night before we arrived. On arrival, Angie said that she only had reservations for 2 of our 3 rooms (and none of those were the rooms we reserved) and that they were fully booked. After complaining that this was typical behavior for late arrivals she at least gave us 3 rooms (sorry if that was a fellow CRT'er she bumped). She also stated that 2 people were fired last week due to the "reservation problem".

Room 407 had a very unpleasant odor. It was a sewage smell coming from the floor drain in the bathroom. Closing the bathroom door though helped limit the smell to the bathroom.

Yes the hotel has WIFI, but it was down every day. You could connect to it on the 3rd floor but the signal had no internet connectivity. Simply resetting it (which is all they would do when they get a complaint) did not fix the problem.

The breakfast was better than last time but nothing to get excited about, the "americano" was two pieces of unbuttered toast, two eggs made to order, 1 slice of bacon (or 1 sausage link, or slice of ham), a hash brown potato wedge, juice and coffee.

The "SCAM" game is still there, at least nobody seemed to be playing it:

The above does not conflict with DonGordo's review, I too had new tile in the bathroom, good water pressure, a comfortable bed, and an OK breakfast, but DonGordo and his brother arrived at 9am and probably don't use WIFI.

My last trip I arrived at 11pm. Angie had reserved me Room501 but of course it was already taken by then. But to me it 's like staying at the HDR without a chica fee and lower price.
