What are the names of the most inexpensive hotels the closest to Manuel Antonio Park in Costa Rica?
Q. Hotel Kamuk in Quepos offers rooms as low as $50.00 a night plus tax.

Are there any cheaper ones closer to the park?

A. Why not go look at www.dominical.biz there are hotels & rooms etc, usually you can choose by ratings, they group them according to accomodations levels....many nice inexpensive rooms/bungalows/cabins/ etc are of an abundance with a little searching you may find something perfect for you. Remember that seasonal rates will vary prices, right now is th high season it is dry & most holidays increase the costs. Costa Rica is predominently Catholic which means Catholic holidays influence bigtime. Easter is now approaching so watch your rates & compare to later in the year, many go half! Enjoy~ Consider Jaco as a place for inexpensive rates, it resembles Keywest style, surfer heaven...lots of inexpensive places to stay & still not too terribly far to visit Manuel Antonio. I would suggest some places we stayed, but we paid much more than the $ you speak of. Good luck! Enjoy~

Who decides how many stars a hotel gets?
Q. For any given hotel, who decides how many stars they get? Is there a way to contribute to the rating process? What about reviews at websites like Fodor's?

A. Unfortunately, there's no 'standard' that every guide/site/etc. uses -- each publication ranks properties however they see fit. So, theoretically, one organization may rank a hotel as a 5-star, but a different company may rank the same hotel as a 4-star, depending on their own system.

However, you'll find that most companies use the following when determing how to rank a hotel:

1 star = Economy
2 stars = Value
3 stars = Quality
4 stars = Superior
5 stars = Exceptional

Check this link over at Wikipedia for a good rundown of the ratings:
