Hey guys...I appreciate the help. First time in SJ and will be staying the SL for 3 nights. I goofed and actually needed a 4th night before I take off for the ocean and surf and more women in Jaco. I need the ocean...just do. I am staying at SL....but I need another night as I goofed. Should I just stay at SL...maybe they will give me the 20% and there is a solid Happy Hour there.....or do I stay at HLH and enjoy the $35 ladies? Please help.....also could use laundry by then.....Thanks. NYC Newbie

Depends on what dates your trip is planned as to how many people may be on the waiting list but at the last minute all the people on the waiting list will have made other reservations so that may be when you get notified that a room has become available for you. You should call and ask them to add you to the waiting list. I'd also keep asking each day your here pushing it to the last morning.

If you don't get it, then someone will have a room Freebird, Hotel Little Havana , Amisted, Castillo, ETC with the Sleep Inn as a VERY LAST RESORT backup plan.

I would try the La Amistad

Why.. cheap standard Queen, and laundry done for a $2-$4 tip,and a some what free breakfast

Just trying to be helpfull

Also, check our the Castillo. They have a great green season rate and its only several blocks from the SL.

probably slipped his mind but icantstayaway forgot to mention the del rey

Housekeepers willing to wash Hank's tighty whities for 2 bucks and a MOTHERFUCKIN KOI POND?!?!? Sheeit knee-grows Why stay anywhere else?

Thanks guys.....booked with La Amistad.....laundry and the food looked awesome.....quite a distance from everything....but I will walk.....NYC we walk......I am all set and ready...still have one night on my return from Jaco to book? Ideas? Thanks. Daniel NYC

dude if you walk out the front door of amistad and trip you would practically fall into the sportsmens. its less than a city block.

So you are going to forgo a an additional 10% discount at the SL? With a 4 night stay at SL you get 20% off slow season discount.

pluses at LA they will do your laundry and free breakfast.

The dealbreaker for me at LA is the Phucking train that runs right next to the hotel. It blows it's horn repeatedly as early as 0530am.

I party late and sleep late therefore the LA will not work for me. It's a shame because it is a nice hotel with great service.

Train noise on weekends is noticeably less due to reduced weekend schedule. If your there during the week plan on sleeping with ear plugs or rising early.

Many of the hotels have noise of one type or another. If its not a train, its street noise, the klick klack of hooker heels in the hallway or the bang bang sounds of your neighbor at 3:00AM

I always wear earplugs.

Yea I heard about the train.....only one night...I emailed the SL for 2 days and was not going to wait anymore......no biggie....on my return from Jaco I have one night to book before I fly out....I was thinking HLH? or just continue the SL? I am aware of the train at LA....so 1 night is good for me.......Thanks guys. D. NYC

Well, let me know if they finally replaced the manhole cover on the sewer in front of LA. Damn near fell down that hole my last visit there and I already broke my ankle once last year... don't need it happening again when I am back in August

I gave up the idea of jogging anywhere in San Jose. Between the sidewalk hazards, the roaming dogs, and the crazy drivers it can be a dangerous proposition.
