Arriving Late night Delta Flight the Day After Thanksgiving spending 6 days in SJ and 3 in Jaco. Since the La Amistad is still currently closed, Rudy has set me up at the Castillo. I have always stayed at the LA while in San Jose I have only ate a few meals at Castillo so anyone who has been in the Castillo Rooftop Penthouse #3 room feel free to chime in and give me some details and climbing steps don't bother me. I just got my email confirmation from Cocal today I will be there Mon Nov. 30 - Thu Dec 3... How is the Cocal's selection been during thru the week anyone been recently and then I'm headed Back to Castillo for remainder of my stay.

It appears from some of the pictures some PH share a Balcony or might beside another PH outside balcony ?
I also looked at the Hotel Castillo Posts for some pictures of PH but I only seem to find the PH Zoo Room and this isn't the room I got. Does the PH 3 have any decent balcony views, any lofts have you stayed in this room before Hugo ?

The 3 penthouses have roof top patios that are adjacent to one and other. They all have views over the bar area and out over San Jose. They have a low railing that can be opened to one and other if you have a neighbor you get along with. You can see over the railing while seated. Try this link"https://www.google.com/search?q=hotel+castillo+san+jose+costa+rica+penthouse&sxsrf=ALeKk021njeyB1C3OTScYsHOqJJXX_ApnQ:1605102716945&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi6xpXK0frsAhVPaq0KHX7cB0oQ_AUoAXoECAMQAw&biw=1280&bih=648#imgrc=6guyfqbNUsetfM" If the link does not work just search for Hotel Castillo San Jose Costa Rica Penthouse in google and select images. I can not remember if 1 or 3 is the corner on the zoo side. I have stayed in all 3 and the view is nice with the corner having a better view. There is also a cover over each of the patios.

Penthouse 3 is my favorite at Castillo. The room is vented so it can be a little bit noisy during the day if you're a light sleeper.
