I've stayed here many times, the hotel is ok, I totally enjoy the bands at the key Largo and I love Latin women. I don't recommend the restaurant,but I'm picky. I've stayed here many times without a problem, but checking out on may 30 the new morning guy was charging me 21$ to much.when I returned to the hotel on... More

If you are a single man this is not a bad place. Don't expect overly nice rooms, maid service is good, can't walk 10 steps without a hooker aproaching you, their resturant is crap, and their might be some shady drug business immediately outside the hotel. During the day it is not too far from city center with a lot... More

Stayed at Morozan.. one block from Del Rey.. good value.. ok rooms. Played 1 2 at Del Rey. Good action for a Weds. Nice room isolated from girls in lobby but still close to the fun. Bought in for $200.00 cashed out $1900.00 a couple hours later. Mostly acted like a tourist until a big showdown.. then they realised I... More

We chose the Del Rey, and yes, bought the t-shirt. The three of us separated and were in the bars during the evening, moving from one bar to the other. My sister played the casino. The bars are filled with women wanting to make some money, even hitting on us women, which was ok with us. We felt very safe... More

Located downtown Jose this hotel is withing walking distance of most services....I inspected the rooms and found them to be clean and ate at the restaurant but did not stay there. I strongly suggest that families and couples do not go there as the lobby is a mecca for working girls. There is a casino downstair as well if one... More

A good place to stay in San Jose on leisure but not a good place for ladies, kids or couples. Front desk staff is friendly although not always the speediest. Rooms are clean but a little small and a little tired. The location is smack in the centre of downtown and taxies are readily available to get around as well... More

Not a great place for kids or couples. The staff was great and the room service was good, fast, and very reasonably priced. The regular rooms are a little small, but other than that fine. The first two nights I had a balcony room and it was great. Familes beware. There are a lot of women of the night there.... More
