Their premises are in a bad condition, when we got there we figured out that toilet doesn't work, no light, no gas in the kitchen, etc. We where forced to look for another place to stay and found it. When we paid for the el jardin tortuga we were asked to pre-pay before arrival full in cash. After we left, Stefan - the owner of the place, did not want to refund even a portion of money. If you are looking for really cheap place to stay this might be an option, howeveer see yourself warned.

The host, Stefan, is a great guy, and he speaks English, German, and Spanish fluently. Hi pizza is excellent, as is his pork tenderloin and Spaghetti. Great food and a real helpful host.

Since that time we have grown in registered members to approaching 50. We have now got two pages of reviews for the San Jose and the greater metro area. From the Atlantic side there are several interesting reviews. But for the remaining areas we have a few scant reviews or even none, though we hope that will change before long. Come by to see what new reviews have shown up. It pays to visit every so often as we never know just when someone is going to post another interesting review. And if you have a favorite place you would like to share with the rest of us, please post a review of it. It's simple. It's easy. And there are suggestions right on the site for what information is best to include in your review. See you there! Paul Mitchell Moderator CRE == Hi Tim,
