Posts: 32There is a Casa in Centro near Centro Comercial La Cascada, right near there, that is pretty much all big like that. Just crazy asses etc. It's on the second floor right in one of those small commercial centers near there.

At least it was an outside place where one could rest their head relatively undisturbed. The new restaurants even got so comfortable as to offer outside sitting. I wonder how will they handle the influx of pesterers now.
No problem with crime being pushed outside to one place either, at least everybody knew where to be careful, and it's not like this was the only crowded passage, there are many more at least as crowded and more on and around Carabobo anyway.
And it's only at the very beginning when they pushed the girls and other 'undesirables' back and were frisking people, but not long after that girls were back, plenty of drunkenness and fights inside too (got a video of one SW face kicking another one in there) , and yeah, there were enough small cart vendors inside as well if a cigarette was needed.
Ironic that they've put their own barriers for their political event yesterday when they came all in fancy dressed and even bleached the ground LOL.
Plaza Botero with barriers was much safer, regardless of politics behind installing it in the first place, but it's a moot point anyway, got to adjust to the new situation accordingly.

Posts: 80Hotel Dix
Anyone have any opinions / experiences with the hot tub rooms at Hotel Dix. I found some old reviews (Tripadvisor from several years ago) that say the hot tub in the room isn't that great but with those being so old I'm not sure how much it's changed. I do enjoy a hot tub and it's nice to relax in (especially with a nice Colombian lady LOL) after a long day. As always, thanks in advance.

All that said, most of the casas are the same setup. I know you are looking for convenience but my best advice to you for casas: ubers are cheap in Medellin. Make a list of casas that interest you. Prioritize them. Then get an uber and start checking them off. If you don't like the selection, leave. At worst, you'll be out 30 k pesos as a viewing fee. Then uber to the next one. But most will give you a live selection. The girls will come out one by one, introduce themselves for a couple seconds, then you make your choice. Efficient.

Posts: 4039You hit the nail on the head. I agree with every bit of this. I learned some things about other members here who complained about the barrier removal. One member described our reasons for wanting it gone as "stupid. " I think it's important to try to understand opposing points of view. The reasons cited for wanting the barrier to remain boiled down to feeling safer in the plaza. RI can understand how an occasional visitor would think that but I know it wasn't as safe as it may have felt, especially not in the areas nearest the barrier. If you don't live here you would have no need to cross the plaza outside the barrier to go from the metro to the Dollar City in the Nutibara but believe you me it was much riskier and inconvenient with all the desperate street people looking for an easy victim to jump out at from behind the vendor carts that clogged the area. Even short term visitors would have to cross the gamines zone to get to the entry checkpoints. I suspect these may be guys who don't remember several previous attempts at barriers around the plaza. The most recent one before what was removed this week was actually stolen piece by piece at night and sold for scrap in nearby Prado.

Posts: 32This guy broke at least two universal rules of Colombia: 1. He let unknown girls up into his Airbnb without having the Portero hold their cedula. 2. he allowed girls to bring unknown friends with them. The story is weird AF because all of a sudden there are dudes with guns in their apartment, how did they get by the Portero? He just all of a sudden says there is a guy with a gun at his head in his Airbnb, while the girls were in the bathroom. WTF.
Anyone that rents a house *without a portero in Cali Colombia to play with putas is a moron. Colombians would never do what these guys did. Other than that, take a look at the pictures of the girls this guy had over without knowing them, knowing anything about them other than they are putas: both ugly and serious barrio vibes.

Posts: 4039What is the purpose of reposting police blotter type crime reports? I think we are past the point where even people with no interest in Colombia are aware of the increased media coverage. Are you going to share some safety recommendations, areas to avoid, something beyond 'these dudes got robbed?

Posts: 31Where to stay in Medellin for a 5 days short trip?
Can you please suggest a chica-friendly place to stay at Medellin? I want to know based on your recent experience since it changes every month. I will stay for 5 days and may have a session with two girls. Thanks in advance.

I got some pictures earlier this morning of plaza Botero without the barricades. This is the first time since early February of 2023 that the area has looked like this. I knew in my heart and soul that the barricades would not last forever.
Gabacho.

Posts: 138Beaten and robbed
From FB group:
I was attacked by several venezuelans, they threw me to the floor and started to kick me and punch me because I wasn't giving them my cards. Luckily I wasn't stabbed, not a cool way to start the new year. There were people around, but they just stared at how I was getting robbed, even though I was screaming for help. After the thieves left I wasn't able to stand up on my two legs because of the wounds, and nobody approached to give a hand.
And other guy:
I had a similar situation with three costenos who attacked me with a metal pipe in la playa. Blew out my pupil so now one doesn't close completely from lights. And I'm pretty sure I tore my rotator cuffs because moving my arms was near impossible for a couple months afterwards.

Posts: 540I thought Christmas Day would be the quietest but New Years Day was. Roughly half the Rappi restaurants were closed Christmas Day but around two thirds were closed on New Years Day. It was the most quiet day. Very few people were out. Just a hand full of girls at Botero. One girl I was going to repeat with returned home after an hour. I was sexless today but not in the mood anyways so no big deal. So sad to say that.
The Wall is gone again. Ten hoodlums out on the side of the church. 5 on one bench and 5-6 on the other waiting for victims. There was no other reason to be out today. I am not big and always alone so now at night I have to walk around near the museum and avoid the side of the church walking path.
There was a ghetto wannabe Latino who wanted to bump fists with some black local guy and act like bros near the corner of the church. But the black guy did not seem to know him. I walked away because some drunk guy kept trying to talk to me. When returning 15 minutes later I saw the ghetto wannabe Latino at the other end of the alleyway talking to police. He had a broken bottle in his hand. He put it down and explained what happened to the police. He had a 2 inch cut on his bicep. Later I asked a vendor with very poor English near the church about it. Some lady was arguing with him. I asked if she was black because this idiot seemed like he wanted to be annoying by approach blacks being their friends. He said yes but who knows. His English is bad and my Spanish is nill. I just thought that would be funny if the wannabe was trying to be black and got cut for bothering the lady because he did not "make the cut" of being black enough. Haha. He did get a ride away in the police van. The fun is just starting. Next weekend when all the POS learn The Wall is gone and the police too.
Guess I am not as racist as I thought. I did the deed with a black girl 3 days in a row. Model face and rock hard body.
Damn you 2 week millionaires. The locals have the money but they would not do this. Street girl showed me a picture of her in a helicopter and on the helicopter pad at Guatape (The Rock).
I deflated a 2 week millionaire. He showed me a picture of his 150,000 COP or more Parque Lleras girl. I was with her 4 times a few months ago for a lot less in Centro. Poor guy.
