Hola LL,
try a search here on aparthotels and apartments, and here is an old post on the 3 most popular apartments in SJO, not sure if the prices are still current.

There are basically 3 different apartment groups most commonly listed on this board.
Linda Vista Aptos. are in an area known as Calle Blanco and are about a 20-25 minute walk north of the gulch or 10 minutes by bus. They cost between $125-145/wk. Its farther than the others but also the cheapest. Don Gordo got mugged near there not long ago and some say the neighborhood is rough. I didn't find it any worse than many other parts of SJ. Take a cab after dark if that makes you feel better.
The Scotland Aptos are about a 10 minute walk east of the gulch around Calle 25(?) (its actually indicated just off the edge of my map) and runs $250-350/wk. The $250 studios are similar in quality to Linda Vista's. The $350/wk apartments are much nicer but cost nearly as much as a hotel. Its not a bad neighborhood, but then I said that about Calle Blanco.
The Sudamer Aptos. are the one El Ciego and Y.O.M. stayed at on their last trip and I believe Don Gordo has stayed there as well, but I haven't seen them for myself. They are a little closer to the gulch but about 7 blocks to the south at Ave. 14 y Calle 7 (not far from Pantera Rosa and Ilusiones MP). They run $160/wk. The neighborhood is supposed to be like Morazon Park after dark but again I haven't really explored that neighborhood.
Do a search here under "apartments "with me as author and you will get detailed info on these places and a few others
