Idem
Pension or Bar Idem
Idem, which in Spanish means “ditto” has been a favorite of tourists for many years, perhaps the first place in San Jose where you could enjoy a drink and entertain girls onsite at Hourly Rooms Upstairs.
The bar is quite nice although a bit pricey by local standards at an average of $4 a drink.
When Idem first opened in the late 1990’s it wasn’t uncommon to find girls who would pop in after their day job to earn a bit of cash.
The price for onsite full service increased in 2007 to about $70, and although the quality of chicas is better than average you should spend some time in the bar chatting up your potential selection.
If you are not feeling that social or want a quickie at a cut rate price, then just walk accross the street to Pension Relax or Eros where the rate is less than $40 for thirty minutes of full service.
One warning, do not take a taxi to Idem. You will get stiffed for at least $20 in taxi commission, perhaps more tacked onto your session.
Consult the Soledad Map because it’s very easy to reach on foot, otherwise have a taxi take to the Don Wong restaurant across the street, order a drink in their bar, and then when the taxi is gone walk over to Idem.

women are sexy as hell... but i can get the same ones at del rey for less than $70 an hour... but, damn the women are fine here, i must admit, you got some pocket change and want to splurge a lil, a definite stop. one thing, the owner can get in the way, you are better to negotiate what you want with them, felt like a pimp/ho situation there, unlike any other places in San Jose. fine females!!!
This place is very expensive, the women is not the best, and is very the worst if you use credit card. Is better go to the Hotel del Rey is better more woman and if yu negociate is better the price is under $ 50.00. Best regards
No taxi fee when I went.
Everyone is right when they say Idem is very expensive, it is. Also, the drinks are a total rip off, yesterday, I paid 2200 colones for a Coca Cola. Yet, the owner gives coffee for free. But, for the most part, the girls are the best looking in the entire city!!! Before I went in yesterday, my friend an I were across the street at Relax. There were about nine girls there who at best, were average looking. Many were hefty and most had body ;piercings or tatoo's. None of them was anything to write home about. Nest door at Eros, the situation was even worse. Only three girls who were not attractive. At Idem, there were also nine girls there. Four were far above average and three were drip dead gorgeous with magnificent figures.
Yes, it may be more, but if you want to masturbate with a woman's body, go eleswhere. I you want tow have a dynamite time, pay the extra dollars and go to Idem.
Expensive?
The exact cost is $60.00 for one REAL hour and $15.00 for a room! On average there is about 15-20 ladies each one more stunning than the one before. Average age is 23; slender, CLEAN and fit !
The environment is clean, safe, tranquil and no annoying, pushy rip off, "mechanical" posing bitches like the shoot them up del rey with death at the front door!
The manager, Roberto, is a great guy that is bi-lingual and always ready to help in our best interests.
THERE IS NO TAXI FEE. I paid $2.00 to the front door from the plaza.
For those of you that are looking for cheap, and bargins, try the street whores for $20.00; hopefully, you will live to tell the tale for the others.. GO TO IDEM!
So, you mean the EXACT cost is $75.00.
I agree IDEM has been quality lately. The girls are hot, and under $100 is a deal for these chicas.
I just can't get past $4 - $5 a drink. The bar is nice looking, but come on this is downtown San Jose not California. That bar is nice, but I can sip Martinis at the Amistad for less than a beer at Idem.
What a bunch of crybabies. I'm tico and I have no problem whatsoever with the price. Aren't gringos supposed to have more money than us?
By the way, the REAL price is around $65, including the room.
IDEM, for me has it all. I have been going there since the 90s and there are always good looking girls, rooms are clean and the service is always top notch. I've tried other places that charge less, Relax, Mansion, Vips and others and have found that the quality of the girls and the service is hit or miss. Rather pay $65 or 31,000 and go for the sure thing than cruise around through 2-4 MP to find something I like.
Del Rey has some really nice lookers, but I find the attitude of most the girls there a bit off.
