Just returned from a six night stay at the Sportsmens. I have to say the service was excellent.
On my first night, there was a problem with the hot water in my room. Since it was late and had already unpacked and everything, I really didn't want to change (
Rachat de crédit et trésorerie) rooms that night. Manfred (the manager) gave me a key to the Presidential Suite across the hall so so that I could use that shower for the evening. The next day they gave me a suite in the Mansion Wing at a discounted rate. I was more than satisfied with the remedy.
Bar service was quick, the drinks had a good pour and the food quality was good. While not haute cuisine, the Sportsmens does have good bar food. My only complaint is that the portions are a bit large so I have a tendency to overeat. Prices are a bit high but I find that is true of most restaurants in San Jose that cater to gringos.
And by the way, I told the housekeeper that I needed extra towels on the first night I was there and I had four towels every day without asking.
