When the plane slide off the runway monday like one did last year I needed a hotel. Last year Ticafan suggested the Inca Real. It is a small hotel about two doors down from the Clarion. 1.5 blocks from ZB. It has wireless internet that Alanchar says works real good. I stayed there last year for 3 days waiting for Wilma to pass over Maiami. And this last labor day we stayed there one night till they cleared the runway. It is a nice little hotel. We have the CRT discount there now. Alanchar took the single room and I got the double. Castillo was booked. Alanchar got a nice room queen bed good strong hot shower safe in room key type. For 40.00 dollars a night. No window in room. People are nice. No tica fee with VIP card. Some sort of breaskfest. We left at 5;45 am so do not know what. Did not ask if you could have two guest. But I had one with no fee. I got the double. It was nice. A Queen bed and a single bed. Set up for a family traveling.

With a 40 a night and no Tica fee 1.5 blocks from ZB and staffed 24hrs with gated door access it is a nice spot. Sheets were clean and they had the towels made into little things on the bed. Nice queit fan above the bed.

Thanks on getting us this discount Admin[/b]

There are lots of nice little hotels down there that aren't publicized if you know where to go. I always like to explore the area and even others for re-peat visits. So long as its clean, secure and happy what else could you ask for?

Do they have any rooms with windows?

I do not know. But you could e-mail them and ask. They are listed on the VIP discount page.

Thanks

yes i was very happy with the room at inca real...super clean and big and after just staying at castillo this room was steps above the room there...a real bed and and huge shower that just blew u away when u got in there...and yes the wireless worked great least the one night i was there it did....at 40 bucks a night tax included this was a great value....
i would for sure look to stay there again in the future....

Is there a safety box, tv, ac in each room?

Inca Real = should be on the top of the list for hotels to try.

Cleanliness: 9 out of 10
Attentiveness by Staff: 8 out of 10
Noisiness: HOLY SHIAT they were doing construction and at 8am you hear banging until 5pm. This was probably a rare occurence, so 8 out of 10, quiet form the street, etc.
Security: 8 out of 10 -- locked double gates, doors have decent keys (but no keycards). Safe in the room (similar to sportsmens).
Convenience: Excellent.
Value: BETTER now with discount.
Air Conditioning: Get used to none, but you don't really need it. Fan is really adequate.


What I can say is that the hotel caught fire once.

Otherwise, a GREAT VALUE.

Yes terminater there is a TV with lots of Channels.

The price is right and it has been a great back up on 2 occassions. I also think it could get better if I took the time to get to know the staff. I beleive the owner is an older lady who is on site alot.

All that said, I am still booked at Castillo for my trip in oct. I like to lay down stakes. For now Castillo is my home away from home.
