Mood: Enjoying Life with Wife In Mexico, Easy on The Easy

We negotiated the Marina Hotel price in late October last year. It seems that it is like everything if you tell them you have gotten an offer in town for a cheaper amount then you have something to start with. I think it also helped that the manager was there and would rather have a nomad in the hand instead of one in the bush, LOL. Take Care & Travel Safe----- "No Hurry, No Worry, Just FUN" bajafun777

I really liked this place near Marina La Paz, and I negotiated to about $50 a night for a few nights:

There is a new B&B called "Casa de la Paz" on Hidalgo and the Malecon in El Centro. My friend stayed there and loved it. It definitely has an awesome location if you want to be within minute's walk of everything!

For being a penny P-ncher, I'm not very savvy about negotiating hotel rates cuz I've never thought to ask for a discount at LunaSol either and have always paid full price. Need some lessons i guess.

We've stayed at the Hotel Oasis a couple of times in La Paz. My kids love the pools! I think there are about 3 of them, with bridges, room to dive, jump, etc., and no rules!

There are peac-cks wandering about, so expect an early wake up call. The price can't be beat, and I think we even stayed in a kitchenette there one time!

We don't have to have very fancy but at times it is nice to do, however the beds have to at least be not hard as rocks so we can sleep. So many times we have gotten into hotels or B/B and had beds so hard that rest was impossible. Just as long as the bed is not rock hard then the rest just works itself out! LOL I got to where we bring an air up matress just in cast, my king size air matress is always a lifesaver when all else fails and the beds are just not something you can sleep in. When it is late you just take the room and try to work through it and I know most of us have done this in Mexico and if you have traveled in Costa Rica you dang sure have done it,LOL.
