When you decide to spend the money to go on a really nice vacation, every aspect of it has to be in place.  You have to like your travel agent, not be too angry at the airlines, and, of course, stay in a place you like once you get there.  That is why we have enjoyed doing business at our costa rica apartment hotel complex.  They have a wide range of accommodation choices, from the tiniest of rooms to entire luxury suites.  Because we don’t spend a lot of time in our room, instead preferring to see the sights and go shopping, we always choose the more austere digs.
