I'm going to be in San Jose for 4 weeks in January and was wondering if anyone could recommend Tica friendly lodging that won't break the bank - I'm hoping to have some money left over for entertainment. Not my first time to CR but I usually take Spanish classes and stay with a family. I did a few unsuccessful searches on this site - maybe someone could point me towards an appropriate thread. Any help will be appreciated.

Do a search for "apartment" in this forum.

A few that will pop-up often will be:

Apartments Sudamer

Vistalinda Apartments

Scotland Apartments

my first wingman sent me this, how true

" most of the girls down here, lie as a self defense mechanism and to not have to face the truth, thinking most men couldn't accept them knowing the whole truth. Simpler, they may just want men to think they are as perfect as they want to appear to them, trying to hide what they consider to be the ugly truth about themselves. And I may be reading more into it than is there, but I do believe they consider the basis of the lies to be justified."

The Vista Linda is also another to consider.

also talk to some our sponsors, they may be able to make arrangements for a long-term visit and give you a deal in the process. just an idea you may want to pursue.

The hotel Doral has a monthly rate also. My stay there was only 4 days but it was an okay place for me. Their website is :

Thanks to all who provided information. I will probably be staying at the Scotland Apartments but several of the other options looked good also. Looking forward to a month of "relaxation". Hope to see some other board member there.

I think you could get the royal dutch for around $30 a night if you booked for a month ....its a guess but worth checking into to.
