Have vacation time in early December. Deciding between two options San Jose, Costa Rica and Panama City, Panama.

If anyone’s been to these places, which would you recommend?

Costa Rica is great, but not San Jose itself. Not sure why you would want to spend any time there... Depending on how much time you have, I'd recommend either the Arenal and Monteverde areas for volcanoes, cloud forests and ziplining, or the Pacific coast, near Santa Teresa, for beaches and surfing.

Agreed. Many areas in Costa Rica are nice, but avoid San Jose.
