The popular monger hotels tend to fill up since they are a limited supply. It is definitely to your advantage to have a confirmed reservation in my opinion.

Try to stay at the DR for at least a couple of days for your first time. Ask for the economy room. $80. A little expensive but has all of the anemities. Mostly Poosie.

I stay at the Morazon and really like it. Get a Jr. Suite on the 5th floor for $88 including tax. Big nice room, balcony and no chica fees. It's really just like staying at the Del Rey, but a nicer room. The resturant sucks but there are many in the area.

Have to agree with ID, make a reservation to make sure you get a room where you want.

I agree with Hank - Morazan is a good bet. It's close to HDR/KL, no fees, and gives you time to 'reconsider in a different light' as you're walkin' back to your room.

Are the cheap rooms that high now? Oh well it has been 7 or 8 years since I stayed there. Everything has gone up a lot in the last 11 years.

No CRT discount at the Morazan. If you want to limit your hotel expense Morazan has less expensive accommodations also.

Beast, if you are staying at the Morazan ask for the Soprano discount. Tell them Badabing sent you!

Stay at the Sportsmens if you can its my hotel of choice.
5 min walk from DR or couple dollar taxi ride.

Just a few options at SL:
Chicas
Wingmen
Resturant
Bar
Nice clean rooms and good service

Reserve in advance at the SL

I don't like to smack talk even in the Smack Talk section AND I have no direct knowledge of what went down BUT Dildoman why you gotta bring that crap up again and to a new Brother who has no knowledge of the implications? You could get him in a world of hurt. Am I right?

Why would he get hurt by requesting the Soprano Discount?

I tried to bargain with Morazon management on a 4 night stay but they stonewalled me with $88 per night with tax. I had reservations at the Castillo which I stayed 1 night but didn't like the room, no AC , stopped up shower stall, no blinds :x too many stairs to climb. So walked in the Morazon on July 4 and took what I could get.

It all depends on how often he's going to bring a girl up?
