below; you are asking some great questions, and it can be helpful not only to you but to others to have them answered - I'm a pretty direct guy, so know from the start the welcome is real, and zero malice in my answers/comments
I love to see guys getting back to CR, and hope you have a great trip, and it becomes a regular thing with you again
Grettings from the Original Lurker,
After a 4 year hiatus, I will be returning to CR from Oct. 3 to Oct. 8 to celebrate my wingman's 50th birthday. I have >20 trips under my belt, so I am well versed in the game, but deffinately rusty on the latest. I started going to CR just before this board started and became friends with some great guys through this forum. Back in the day, I was a frequent poster here, but my chica drama got to be too much, and I sort of lost my coveted anonymity in SJ, so I took down most of posts and went back to being a lurker. I have a few questions for my brothers, I know that I could do my own research, but I am hoping that one of my old croonies (or a new one) could save me the time.
Again, you are raising good issues, and while the standard response on the board a few years ago was "Do a search", I don't think that's the case today. However.....Most of us skipped school the day they taught mind reading - the only way any of us would know about your "chica drama" is if you post it - period. Don't post what you don't want others to know about - it amazes me that guys post all, and then get upset when a) other guys comment about it on a public message board board b) the posts end up - for a variety of reasons - upsetting them. I've been a VIP member for 6 years, and don't recall your posts, but if the drama was with a working girl, hopefully you know better. Besides, we had a thread from a poster called "Rolltide" and no chica drama is ever possible to top his.....I mean with the <possible> exception of how many millimeters her cunt opening was, this guy posted EVERYTHING 
do a search under his name and read his threads when you have a spare hour or 2 to kill Pricing - Is the typical "asking" price at the HDR still 100? I don't want to get into a debate on pricing, as I know that a lot of people have strong opinions on this topic, but has pricing changed substantially in the the last few years?
If a working girl - a chica, not a "tica" - we will get to that soon 
- knows 2 words in English, its got to be "hundred dollars" - as stated, most will come down quickly (you will not see as many beautiful Colombianas in the HDR as perhaps 4 years ago, but figure if she does not come down, she may not want to be with you, and the best response is to move on to the next one.
Lots better venues than the HDR and the KL - Sportsmans has really come into its own, Zona Blue - now HLH, Relax, 360 and other massage parlors are really great - you don't have to rely on HDR - sit at the bar @ Sportsmans, speak with someone with some experience and a clue and they can guide you - Hotel Rooms - I am staying at my favorite frat house, the Sportsmen's Lodge. I have stayed there many times, but am lost on the new room descriptions. Rooms use to be referred to as the Old Section (courtyard), and the New Section. It sounds like they have added something called the Mansion Wing, or renamed the new section that is not so new anymore. What is the difference between the Modern Wing and the Mansion Wing? Preferences?
Can't help you here - been to the Sportsmans many times but never stayed thereAnything else that I should know after a 4 year hibernation?
With the exception of a lot more guys venturing out to the MP's, I don't think you will see a lot of changes; tourism is down, you are going in off season, so you should be able to get favorable pricing treatment. One thing that has not changed is that "tica" is still a term for Costa Rican female, not another catch all to mean prostitute 
I hope to tip a beer with anyone from the board that is in town in early October. You can find me most evenings sitting at the back bar in the Key Largo. I will be the gringo with an Imperial in one hand,
a Tica on my arm, and a shit-eating grin on my face.
Addressed above - if you meant that you are only interested in female Costa Ricans - and you will never convince me that's the case 
- I'll stand corrected, but you have experience in CR, you know how to post, so you know .Pura Vida.
