Queen sized bed, 10 mbps WiFi, HDTV, work space, shared bathroom with roomy shower (only shared with one other room). Includes linens and towels. Common areas include spacious kitchen, fireplace, dining room, living room, garden, etc. Location: Escazú (near Paco Plaza). The space Welcome to Tiger's Den. I hope you'll enjoy your stay with me in San Rafael de Escazú. My name is Jilla, but almost everyone calls me Tiger. My house is conveniently located in a nice neighborhood situated across from Paco Plaza. We are in a secure gated community with a guard at the entrance at all times. I moved to Escazú because I really liked the proximity to quality dentists, medical care, San Jose, the theaters, movies, fantastic dining, farmers markets and so much more. A lot of our guests enjoy walking to the many dentist's offices, shopping areas, and restaurants nearby. The house is a fifteen minute walk to World gym and about a ten minute walk to a swimming pool. We're about 20 minutes from the center of San Jose, 25 minutes from the main SJ airport (Juan Santamaría International Airport). We're less than a mile from CIMA and Multiplaza. There are four bedrooms in the house that I rent out: two suites with private baths, and two comfortable rooms that share a bathroom. Provided with the cost of your bedroom are towels and linens, a shower with hot water, flat panel HDTV with a Firestick for all the English-language channels available, plus high speed (10mbps!) wireless internet. There is no need for air conditioning in any of the rooms because the breeze sweeps through the house. Each room has a ceiling fan if you get too warm, but most days they aren't even needed. I enjoy sharing my space with people who are easy-going, neat, healthy, or at least interested in getting healthy, non-tobacco smokers. This is a gay, vegetarian and animal friendly establishment. You don't have to be gay or vegetarian but I do hope you like animals. I have three sweet dogs. If you have allergies, or don't really thrill to the idea of animals in your space, just keep your doors closed and the animals won't enter your room. If you want animals to play with, mine are very friendly. Guest access Guest Access You will have access to the whole house (excluding my apartment and art studio) including the kitchen, living room with fireplace, dining room, an outdoor BBQ area and garden, that includes a 5th full bathroom and washer and dryer, a refrigerator and running water and seating for several people. I have a big yard with a patio, tropical plants surrounding a BBQ area. The garden offers the perfect environment to read, eat, or simply relax or meditate. There's a dining room and a large eat in kitchen with all American-style appliances including a dishwasher. During your stay I interact with guests on an intermittent level. I'm in the house a lot, but also have an art studio so I'm in there for a big part of the day. I will cook meals at a cost of $10.00/per person, but usually require 24 hours notice. I'm friendly, but also busy. Other things to note There are great hiking trails up in to the mountains behind the house and a park across the street. There are over 50 restaurants ranging from McDonalds to one of the finest Italian restaurants in Central America. There is a huge shopping plaza, and my favorite, a great park with a river and tall bamboo less than 3 minutes away from my front door.
