Medellin Reports

[Lou32]

Led by Lunita no doubt! My goodness, I love that little Paisa, no matter how much of a ringleader she is!!

El Mechanico.

Man, ALL the guys love Luna! I don't know what she does in the room but it must be fantastic!

[Mr Enternational]

Whereelse should we go? I don't like Asian girls at all; skinny, small breasts and no ass and 50% being Ladyboys.

Maybe you have been going to the wrong Asia! I have been living in Thailand for 8 years and what you say could not be farther from the truth.

Come on. Now, let's be fair. No one suggested all gringos are suckers. I think the point was made about a certain group who pay well above market rates for accommodations that are well below market standards for access to a small group of women who are asking for 50% to 150% more than comparable providers are getting.

Ask the management to impose a price freeze that would cut into their kickbacks and other profits? I guess it doesn't cost anything to try. Good luck with that.

This sure isn't about get a life or affording another 17 lousy dollars. There is a much bigger picture as most have suggested. A 30% plus increase is crazy. The ones who will suffer the most are the girls at least until a new customer base is established.

Someone pointed out Brazil as an example and this is exactly what will happen in Medellin & the Mansion. It sure did in Brazil which is why I am searching new territory. The exchange will indeed clock back the other direction at some point.

Being new to Colombia I am learning the ropes but the significant price increase requested is a big red flag. Since I just discovered this place and would like to see it remain a similar environment that I read about I have a suggestion. The Mansion folks could set a limit especially since as I now understand an invite only.

Not all gringos are suckers or we would not be having this conversation.

[Blue Touch]

Totally correct.

This is 2018, snap a picture of the cedula with your smartphone and go have some fun. When the girl sees that it will discourage her getting into mischief.

I called both these hotels for what its worth. Trying to figure out where to stay in Poblado area.

Porton. When asked what was the hotel's policy on bringing in guests, the person on the phone immediately understood what I was asking for. He put me on hold for a minute and then came back. Suggesting that if it were "women" friends that I wanted to bring in who would stay only for a limited time period. They will charge $30. When I asked if it was $30/ per person or $30/ day. Interestingly he started to waiver. It was as if he was trying to create a policy on the fly. In other words. He was trying to say. We will allow it as long as we get something out of it.

Hampton. Talked to a woman on the phone and she understood my question right away as well. Her answer was actually very straight forward. They did not have an issue getting a short term friend, as long as I have requested their "permission", that is, notify them in advance who I am expecting and that they want the person to register at the desk.

Looks like I will be sticking to Hampton then. Will let you know my experience.

Seems to me that any large hotel chain is going to have a policy where are all guests and visitors must register with a valid ID.

If for nothing else to limit their liability if and when you get robbed, stabbed or drugged in your hotel room.

If after you have been robbed, bleed out or die from an overdose, there is a question as to how the woman gained access to your room and who she is then the hotel could be found liable.

[El Mechanico]

Yes after four slow days last week I am convinced the Mansion Mafia females are in collusion. Quotes of 250 and acceptance of 200 was the bottom line.

Led by Lunita no doubt! My goodness, I love that little Paisa, no matter how much of a ringleader she is!!

We mongers must look at the fact both the US dollar and the Colombian pesos are floating the market can change the price 100% over a year or 2.

The USD has been down to 1600-1700, for just then very very fast move up to over 3000!

Brainless prepagos does not have a clue of this.

Mongers willingness to pay, the club owners all get it. The looser is the monger.

Following IMF special artificial currency XDR with is a mix of current values of the biggest currencies like USD, YEN, Euro, GDP, you end up what real price is, not the days / weeks or months fluctuations.

http://www.xe.com/sv/currencyconvert...rom=XDR&To=COP

Today 25 XDR are 100 COP. A good base to start from. Prices will become more stable and not just following the disastrous upward short / medium or long term trend.

And Gentlemen, is will be so much easier to compare not only MDE, Colombia, but their competitors Hotel del Rey, Venezuela (when and if ever get a normal currency), Brazil so have so much to offer. Maybe also Peru and Mexico. Argentina etc. Since the REAL came 1994 the sexindustry in Brazil towards tourists has fallen dramattically, Help closed 10 years ago for an example. Colombia started low even good looking and exotic girls 2002, but prices must be held back. Whereelse should we go? I don't like Asian girls at all; skinny, small breasts and no ass and 50% being Ladyboys.

You also may want to ask the clerk to write down the name and number of the cedula in case of robbery or other troubles.

I think the girls and the business owners figured out the sucker angle several years ago.

The Hotel M girls aren't "raising prices" because they have been scouring the pages of the Wall Street Journal and the Economist and have surmised that the core inflation in US Dollar assets would indicate that cost of services should increase as well so that they may generate a reasonable level of net income compared with prior years in business.

No, the prices are higher because they have finally caught on to the fact that the gringos are suckers.

Porton,

I believe, is the nicest girl friendly hotel in El Poblado. It clearly states on the card they give you at check in that you may and should register other guests that go to your room. It is located near an overpass / highway, A little noisy but easy walk to Oviedo & Sante Fe malls. Other posters have noted most of the upmarket hotels are not chica friendly. Unfortunately, the good stuff is all spread out in MDE so one must UBER / taxi mostly. The Metro system is way cleaner and newer than US systems and also would make staying in Estadio doable.

Gents, fellow mongers,

True don't inflate the price it doesn't benefit anyone.

What is your opinion on Torre Hotel / serviced Apartments in EL Poblado. EL Mechanico. You seem to be from the school. Of hard knocks (Tough / Street Smart) Hotel Botero sounds a bit sketchy / crazy / scary.

P.S. Gents I will be in Medellin from 15th for a week. How can I meet up with you all Mongers in Medellin?

You also may want to ask the clerk to write down the name and number of the cedula in case of robbery or other troubles.

[C Jack Sparrow]

USD / COP 3000 and prices are the same.

Atoher way around, COP rises, there are no discount for us we mongers.

Princes stay in COP + inflation.

Being nice with high 18-25 prepagos, only leads to $$$ losses and quarrels and even maybe violence.

MDE Mongers MUST set a MAX price for services, and at which places.

I read prepagos own ads and they are lower than gringos pay!

+700,000 + transport for 48/55/60 hours a week for a month work, or just get kicked you by the owner who he in his turns have to pay to Las Bandas, La Policia.

We doesn't need about that internal magical civil war, murders, acid attacks.

Just make a list based on facts; New Life, Mileroticos, La mansion, Energy, etc.

If not accepted, go to another place, and after that go home a watch some porn.

I left a note to a hot MILF 2 years ago, and she did everything. Prices where like 50-100 COP, she was selling candy on Avenida 65. Time was never an issue, since she was tired in her legs, at my place she got a break for 2-3 hours.

Avoid teens from the barrios. The come high and will start a lot of fuzz and your neighbors will start babble and all that shit.

I love love to see to a Max pay list on the MDE forum.

Overpaying is understood as weakness. Not kindness or generosity.

The last two posts are spot on. The USD / Peso exchange rate is irrelevant. If a chica were to even bring it up, I'd put her on ignore.

As Mr E alluded, guests at the Mansion (and mongers in general in MDE) are not solely from the US. I've met many Canadians and a few Europeans and Mexicans among my fellow guests. Do they get a discount since their currency has weakened against the Peso?
