General Reports

[Cocr Brotheler]

Cocr,

Both his arms had dozens red swollen bite marks. Hundreds bed bugs must have been attacking him.

This is a very serious health problem. If you bring them home you will never get rid of them. Damn Leyva and the stupid guys who operate it. Hotel Hacienda de Santiago on Coahuila is under the same owner, so it likely also has bed bugs. Damn these stupid guys.

Any bro having these problems with hotels in La Zona please post.

When I used to travel more frequently in USA And stay in various hotels the first thing I would do is pull back the bed sheets and check around the outsides of both the boxspring and mattress seams. If an infestation can see both their live and dead bodies or anywhere on the mattress. Even top rated hotels get them time to time but in low end puta hotels as evidenced in Leyva much more common. This kinda stuff and HK craziness and puta killings I will stay in Ticuan this trip. I'm sure I will make my way into HK but not overnight.

Thanks for the head's up Cap.

This is one of the reasons why I stay in the nicer areas of Tijuana instead of Norte. Not worth taking bed bugs or roaches home with you. Always check the mattress and pillows for blood stains when first checking in to your room. I also recommend keeping sanitary vipes and wiping down every inch of the room.

Last night a bro met me in Chavelas, showed me his arms full of nasty red bumps of bed bug bites. This is a very serious problem as you can bring the bed bugs home, spread it everywhere to others, and really get crewed with trying to get rid of them.

Last year another bro reported cock roaches invaded his room, got into his shoes, clothing, lap top and luggage. The bro said Motel Diaz on Revo near the Arc was nice, clean with aircon for about the same price.

Leyva should be avoided unless you want to risk infected with diseases and bring bed bugs and cock roaches home with you. Any bros confirming bed bugs / cock roach problems at any hotel in La Zona, please alert us.

Thanks for warning us Capitan. I tried to see a room last Nov. And all occupied. The deskman not real friendly either so that a warning sign the place is a dump. Next weekend I am booked 4 nights in hotel Ticuan. Not staying in San Diego this trip the hotels are so expensive. Even crummy $108 rooms at 32nd St. Naval base are booked up.

I asked Border Patrol last time I crossed PedEast and I was told that it should be "soon. " It had been closed but it's opened up recently to be used exclusively for Ukrainian refugees. It might be opened up for the general public once that demand is over.

Well the Pedwest hasn't been used for the Ukrainians for a few weeks now since the law changed for them and now they need special paperwork before being allowed to enter. The problem is nobody knows what's going to happen with Title 42 and if it is removed what kind of s show the border will become. They already have more migrants arriving daily to be ready when it expires on the 23rd. If they aren't let in I already know of some that will just cross illegally. They've been in Tijuana since Sunday. Now they just wait and see.

Correct, VIP Card can be purchased at HK Reception. It can also be purchased at check-in at Cascadas in case you're staying there for the night.

It has been a few years since my last visit. In the past I just purchase the card at HK reception. Is it still the case? Thanks.

There's no COVID testing going into Mexico or coming back for pedestrians crossings.

Are there any vaccine or covid testing requirements for pedestrians crossing into Mexico? Are there any vaccine or covid testing requirements for returning US citizens at the pedestrian entry points?

Yes very easy to do. Go to the main TelCel office in Plaza Rio and purchase a phone plus sim card there.

Best to get a phone plan that works on both sides of border. I usually calling Mx. From USA days before a visit to see who is going to be around and also to shop the agencies.

One time I gave my phone to a chica I was having a drink with because she was so fucking impressed with my iphone she's never held one before. In about 5 seconds, she turned on my hotspot, changed my password and piggbacked my data. I didn't even figured it out until the next day.

Lesson learned. Never let anyone get their hands on your phone. It's basically your life line when travelling. Always travel with the motto of trust no one.
