The Best Western Hotels have decided that they will not allow you to bring a female guest to your room. (See The Tico Times, July 27, 2007).

Even though it is legal in Costa Rica the Best Western has decided to impose THEIR MORAL prespective on their guest. So, if you are visiting San Jose and would like to bring a beautiful Chica to your room, you do not want to stay at the Best Western. You are not welcome there.

The BW is in one of the roughest parts of SJ....

I say Good luck with their moral policy...They'll need it...

iggy...

Iggy,
I wonder if the Spratt could pass as a "regular" girl, and be allowed entrance into the Best Western ?!??!?

The Tico Times article mentions only the Best Western in La Uruca & Jaco. Does anyone know if the Downtown Best Western also has that same policy? Since the BW's are franchised they may or may not have the same owners or same policies.

The Best western downtown has always been chica friendly and due to its bad location it needs to be. I think Richards doesn't realize this

ID: I assumed the thread was talking about the one SJ ...



Mucho, As far as the Spratt goes, she just feels that she not a Best Western Type of Chica…She would consider the Hotel to be a little on the Cheap side.

As for me though, the cheaper the better…as far as the other BW’s in CR. I stayed @ BW’s Irazu and there was no chica fee, and it is a much nicer hotel then the one Down town...


iggy...

But the BW La Uruca & the BW Jaco also were chica friendly. They have changed, and while I do not believe the BW Downtown has changed it would be helpful if someone had some hard info especially with the projected shortage of rooms over labor day.

The Best Western Kamuk in Quepos doesn't either. Last summer, the front desk allowed me to bring a guest back to the room after slipping the clerk a 2K note. Unfortunately, that was not the case in January when I returned with a chica and headed for the elevator. Needless to say, this precipitated some unwanted drama in the lobby.

Pray tell us of the drama. A YouTube view would be nice, too. I may have attempted the 5K note, though.

I did, but the clerk was admant. The owner puts the Fear of God in his staff. Someone from management must be reviewing the security tapes. After a heated argument that lasted 5 minutes, I realized the guy was not backing down and the chica was becoming distraught. Since I was already sharing the room with two wingmen, I ended up springing for the last available room, and registered the chica as my "guest." Talk about things "muy tico!" BTW, my buddies were already asleep and probably would not have enjoyed the show. So, I guess one way of looking at it... the awkward mess sort of worked itself out. Instead of paying only $20 (for my share of the room), I spent another $40 and had one all to myself (with my "novia for the night," of course ).

I have been able to confirm that the Best Western La Uruca, Jaco, Downtown , Hampton Inn at the airport & the Garden Court Hotel & Casino at the airport are all operated by a company named Grupo Marta. They also operate the 2 Denny's restaurants in Costa Rica.

It would seem that if they are anti-sex tourism at La Uruca and Jaco it would be hypocritical to allow it at the Downtown BW. If they do maybe it is one of those Muy Tico things

This is a shame, I loved the puddle, I mean pool, at that Best Western. Price was pretty good and they would drive you wherever you wanted to go, Chica's seemed to like it... that was Jan 2006 though, oh well....

Well damn, guess that means I can't take my prostitutes for a grand-slam breakfast at Denny's anymore.
