I would never have paid for the BOSE headphones. Actually they were given to me at a training conference at BOSE in Utah. have also tried about 4 other brands including Sony, and Philips which are both also highly rated. In my own review, the BOSE are still the best. They are also the most comfortable to wear, have the best sound quality when listening to music or movies, and cancel out the most noise. Coolest thing is, you can still have a normal conversation with someone while wearing them. The others I have tried seem to cancel out too much, and use different frequencies of white noise that makes it hard to have a conversation without taking them off.

I could never sleep all night in them. I just mean to catch a couple more hours after the natural Costa Rica alarm clock wakes you up at 6:00 in the morning.

I only mentioned CRT to the owner at Vesuvio because I wanted to see if he was aware that his joint got bad reviews on the board. I was basically putting him on notice since I was going to post a review showing whether his hotel had remedied the many faults pointed out by a previous occupant. And it hadn't.

I spoke with the new owner of the Vesuvio tonight. He just got back in town last night so I don't think he was the fellow you spoke to. He detailed some of his plans for the place: Demolition will start next winter. The entire site will be razed since they are going to put in some underground facilities. It will be a "name brand" hotel when he is finished, complete with many Penthouse style two-bedroom suites. Opening of the new hotel is planned for winter of '10/11.

He was unaware of the various charges. I will send him a copy of the intitial report in this thread and he has promised to respond. Make no mistake about it, he flatly says that the current product is not up to his standards. He is staying in the Mansion wing at SL!

He is a party animal and I expect that the new hotel will be "monger friendly".

Just curious Pac. Is the new owner the same guy who might have been roughed up a bit if he had ventured into some of the biker bars in the pacific northwest due to his loud manners and offensive style? :wink:
