Before Covid, Matehuala opens at 2 pm, one MichelDepa location at Ruperto Martinez / Ariste open till 5 pm. Osiris Spa opens.

Supposedly Arteaga 1007 is open.

Buildings are there but options may be limited as the really hot girls usually take Sundays off. But you'll find something.

Thank you.

Not overthinking just thinking thru thank you.

Does your 7 day FMM state it excludes any fee? Even if printed from home they still have to stamp it you know? Or have you crossed with 7 day previously and no issues?

Thanks you for any additional info.

I didn't go any further to see if it was for free but next time 6 months from now it would be nice to get the 7 day round up and not have to pay. However when you present the 7 day printed FMM they might still try and gouge you for $30? I am also bringing my printed receipt that showed I paid the 600 pesos. They proly still try to charge me another $30. I won't argue but paid on credit card so can dispute if they phuck with me this weekend.

Excellent report Centex. Thanks for the updates on spas and strip bars in Centro, I am going soon as it has been a couple of years since I was last there.

Typing on phone and had typed a report a month ago that somehow got lost so will just try to hit some simple points.

July shot down to Monterey by Greyhound from SA. Was confused about FMM card but as stated before bus stops on Mexico side, interesting they did not ask how long I was staying since it's free for less than a week, just told me to pay 30 bucks. I was actually staying a tad over so no arguing. I came back about 3 weeks later in August to fly to Colombia and they accepted it no problem, had to give up card when I left Mexico City but when I flew back in they issued me another no charge, I guess it is included in plane ticket price.

If you do take Greyhound it is out in BFE but the metro stop is a 5 minute walk from the station. 1st time took taxi but other 3 times 25 cents to solve problem.

Ran around to about 7 different casas. Just best options where 1007 Arteaga and Club Matehuala. I like to get the deed done for less than 50 bucks, many prices discussed are higher than this but it can be done in Monterey. Also if you haven't done the dungeon in Club Matehuala your letting life pass you by.

Stayed Apartment twice than Hotel 500. Booked cheapest option at 500 but 150 xtra pesos a night bigger room and killer view. Also price 1007 Arteaga price 650 for 30 minutes, BBBJ several times with no mention of xtra cost.

Unfortunately when I came in August casas where open but Club Matehuala was closed. Down to Colombia for 10 days then hoping for good news when I got back but not the case, Friday Matehuala closed and Saturday checked Harem and still same sad situation.

Only other thing when back at airport took bus from terminal A for 100 pesos and drops off at Central bus station. Bus had ac blasting and very comfortable seats.

Took a few days first trip to get hang of Monterey, walking during day is grinding but evening has cool breeze and Metro has some talent to get the blood flowing. If you live in Central Tx how can you not make it down there and also enjoy cheap flights. $260 to Colombia, just was expecting nice Aeromexico stewardess talent and a little but not what I had fantasied.

What's the best way to get the FMM? Taxi over to bridge 2 and ask the taxi driver to wait then go to the bus?
