If you reserve a room for two and check in with your girl, there are no fees or hassles.

In general, you are correct - however, in this particular insatance........
Nick, you assume 2 things:

That he has a girl to check in with in the first place (his post would not so indicate)

That he is not looking for girls to bring back to his room (his post does indicate that "what are the odds that a Chica, barring a lot of dinero, would go to Escazu with you after pulling her from the HDR, SL etc")

Would that life was so easy

I had no problem taking my favorita to my room except on the first night the front desk clerk called me over with my favorita (I was trying to quietly get to the elevator with her) and he asked me to fill out a registration form. No biggie. We were never stopped again. Another night, I pulled a Chica from the Key Largo (big premium for TLN in Escazu-ain't going to tell you guys) and there was no problem as the desk clerk was not even there (sleeping, phucking off, muy tico) So it was pretty seamless at least in these instances. I may have been lucky, We will see how it goes the next time.

Simply pointing out to my friend Nick what your question/issue was and how his post, while correct on many levels, was not the answer to your question - and while his post made a lot of sense, life is seldom so easy/logical

You want logical and rational, go to MIT, not here!
