New Pension and Bar Colitas is Cheap and Offers Nice Facilities

Colitas Bar in San Jose, Costa Rica

I first heard that the new bar in town was called “Colitas” I thought for sure somebody must be joking, or at least not speak English. Much too close to “colitis” for comfort.

When I went to check it out, there was my old friend J. C., former manager of the Molino Rojo, in charge and doing a top flight job.

There is a nice, big bar, brand spanking new, with plenty of room. There is a full kitchen there, spotlessly clean serving good “bocas” (appetizers) and full meals. And attached is the hotel, called the 3 'B's, which stand for 'bueno,' 'bonito,' and 'barato.' (good, pretty and a good bargain)

The hotel, like the bar, is brand new and offers premises for short term if you find a 'love connection' in the bar, or longer term if you want a clean place at a very good price. You won't break your budget at Colitas/3Bs. The only negative I saw was that the level of talent was, shall we say, 'erratic?'

The price is right, with smallish but new rooms going for $20 overnight. It's like a mini Del Rey for the budget monger. You don't have to leave the premises (assuming a couple of girls show up when you are in the mood).

It's easy to find. Take a taxi to Parque de la Merced and take the street (Calle 10) downhill/south a few short blocks and it's on your right, between Avenidas 8 and 10, though it's easier to spot the 3Bs sign than a street sign. The location shows as map point K on the Parque Central Map. Be sure to leave a comment on the Colitas Review on the Sexguide after checking it out.
