So I haven't been to San Jose since 2005, when the Pres was still king. Apparently, they've jacked up the prices and started critiquing dance partners. Which is a shame. So where do I go? I'm not a Del Rey guy, and the Sportsmen's Lodge... which I only visited once... seemed a little off to me. So what are my options? Decent hotel, preferably with wireless internet? August 21-24?

SL is def the place to go. But for those dates, you'll never get in. You may not even get in La Amistad...

La Amistad has in room internet via wireless OR ETHERNET CABLE and it is a "fat pipe"....meaning it is a high speed connection (at least for CR). It typically is over 1.5meg down......

The hotel has been refurbished; has a new bar and restaurant which I am advised is most excellent. The hotel is muy tranquilo; goes out of it's way to be helpful; is a 3min walk to the Sportsman's Lodge; has a solid choice from a standard room to suites and is very well run.

Don't be hogging the internet, however, when I'm there. I need it for my Slingbox and trading.....jejejeejejjeje 8)
