Medellin Reports

[Mr Enternational]

I visited Colombia June 16 to 25. My trip was split between Medellin and Cartagena.

Great report as usual BO, but you know I have to do it to you. Colombia or DR?

Security guard fucked you. Next time do what I do and ask on Airbnb if you are allowed over night guests. Also dispute her review and have it removed.

This is why you should always ask first and make sure they are clear on what you will be doing. She is an idiot. She should know better.

She should know better? You mean that she should EXPECT that every gringo will bring hookers to her apartment, right?

Hey guys,

Wondering if any one of you all had a problem like this, I went a while back to Colombia and stayed at a nice apartment in Bogota, it was a 2 bedroom with 4 people capacity as I rented all for my self and my buddy. The host rules never mentioned anything of me not being allowed to bring guests, but in the second night I did bring 2 pros to the apartment, the apartment had a security system and a portero, girls registered their ids everything was good, but I got a call from the host as I was banging the chick saying that I had to leave the apartment at that instant, she said she got a call from the security guard telling her that I brought hookers over and she was not happy about it, I complied of course, left, ended up staying at a hotel with the pro, next day I met with the host and she gave me in cash the remaining days I had booked her apartment for. However the problem is that she left a very unpleasant review, labelling me a sex tourist saying that I got 2 prostitutes from the most dangerous barrio (they were prepagos BTW) and yeah, saying I was a terrible guest therefore in spite that nothing in her home was broken, it was tended to, I never disrespected the host, so yeah with that being said will I be able to get another apartment through airbnb or did she royally screw me for me to use that app ever again? I have a total pf 3 reviews, the other 2 are positive so this is my negative but its the one that stands out, wondering if any of you guys have ever had this issue before and how you all went about it.

Most regular people renting private apartments don't want hookers in their place. Always ask. I'd say that even if they allow "guests", that doesn't necessarily mean that they allow hookers.

I visited Colombia June 16 to 25. My trip was split between Medellin and Cartagena. It was mainly a tourist trip with a mongering twist so our lodging selection was based mainly from a tourist point of view so my selection does not make sense from a mongers perspective. I stayed in hotel Dorado la 70 from June 16 to 18, Dann Carlton from 18 to 20, Dann Cartagena from 20 to 24 and a final day back to Dorado la 70. While the cost of Dorado was $58 per night both Dann's were around $85, split between two persons. All hotels included breakfast. I arrived to Medellin around 10:30 pm And used Bancolombia ATM to retire money. I got 2,929 pesos per dollar while the conversion rate was 2,950 pesos per $1.

My cousin and I took a cab to Hotel Dorado in Carrera 70, comuna Laureles. Laureles is 90% estrato 4 or 5, the remaining 10% is split between estratos 2 to 4. According to official data, estratos 4 to 6 families on average have 4 members while estrato 1 or 2 has 6. Poorest people tend to have more babies or to split costs of a home. We paid 60,000 pesos for a cab to Laureles, which is not far from Centro. Trip from airport was around 45 minutes. We arrived to Carrera 70 area which is a very nice area with a great night life. Mostly locals frequent the area, we see very few tourists there which is nice to me. The hotel is a modern building with marble floors, restaurant, activities rooms and a rooftop bar and gym with sauna. It has a casino attached to the building. The room was very nice with the exception of harder than box spring mattress. At the end it was easy to sleep there because we got drunk every night there. We walked and sample a few bars and eateries. There are hundreds of places along the Carrera 70 mixed with other useful places as for example drugstores, supermarkets and others. A few thousand people populated the area every day and every night.

The place is near the Girardot soccer stadium were the finals Nacional de Medellin vs. Deportivo Cali were scheduled on Sunday June 18. The finals helped to the festive ambiance of the area.

Although I do not see any evident working girl around it is not hard to meet locals. Around 2:00 am I met a local lady, we had a great time chatting and dancing. We exchanged numbers but we do not meet again during the trip.

I mostly drink Aguila or Pilsen beer, around 2500 to 3000 pesos mixed with aguardiente shots, 3000 to 4000 pesos. Food was incredibly cheap, we exchanged a huge picada (ribs, beef, chicken, sausage, fries and arepas) for around $10 US. Party usually ends around 4:00 am On Carrera 70.

UBER VERSUS TAXI While generally Uber is cheaper most time we got better fares in metered cab rides. We got a 9,000 pesos taxi ride from Envigado to Lleras while Uber was quoting 21,000 pesos. It was because of 2 x Uber fares after Medellin Nacional victory over Cali so we used taxis more than Uber.

NEAR HOTEL We stocked our room with water and munchies from nearby Exito supermarket. There was a couple drugstores around. We had almost everything within walking distance. Hotel minibar was not expensive, most items were around $1 to $2.

Next day we go to Santa Fe Mall, Lleras and around the city for beer and aguardiente drinking. Back to Carrera 70 we go to hotel rooftop bar and met the lady who added a local paisa flavor to our trip. We spent from 7:00 pm To 2:00 am Drinking and chatting with her. It was enough time to earn a best friends forever status. After her work shift we go to a nearby place to drink. She invited us next night to her mother's bar around Parque Envigado to enjoy the soccer finals. We finished the night drunk again around 4:00 am.

We moved to Dann Carlton in Poblado on Sunday. From Dann It is a 8 minute walk to Lleras. It is a very nice area of the city. We spent a couple of hours on Lleras, most places were closed.

Early that night we took an Uber to Envigado, it was around 11,000 pesos ride. Envigado was a pleasant surprise. The area around Envigado Park has the local nice small town flavor. There are bars, restaurants and department stores around mixed with churches and local government buildings. We met a guy who is the best friend of our lady friend. He took us after the game to a street they call La Raya. It is a few blocks from Envigado Park. It is a red district street. Apparently locals call some red zones La Raya because there is also a red zone La Raya in Itagui. There was a decent amount of streetgirls with some cuties. I chose a young 18 yr lady, 50,000 pesos was the cost per one hour. The girl was nice and performed decent sex, she was very pretty with large natural boobs. My cousin choose an older lady, he said he was satisfied. We went back to the bar and the park was full of people celebrating the Nacional de Medellin championship. While Envigado has his own soccer team it do not have the tradition the Nacional has. We went with our lady friend to Lleras to celebrate with Nacional hinchas. We get covered in flour and shaving cream during the celebration. It was a funny experience.

Next day we went with our new friends to Guatapé. It is a nice natural area with a large rock and lake around. We split all expenses among all us except that my cousin and I invited dinner. We ate in El Malecon restaurant which is near where the boat sunk last Sunday. I recommend the punta de anca steak, a juicy near one pound steak with sides for around $6. We went back to Medellin early that night, they took us to the hotel and that night my cousin and I decided to visit Luna Lunera, a place somebody recommended instead of Conejitas. Our Uber driver do not found Luna Lunera, his GPS took us to Pueblito Paisa entrance. But hey, he said there was a better place near our hotel. Minutes later we were inside Phase II. Girls were pretty, some danced until full nudity. Drinks were expensive, mostly around 20 k to 25 k. Girls 190,000. I ended choosing a blonde girl. We went to a room area next to the club and finished our business inside a nice room. Good covered blowjob, nice body but everything else sucks. She show me the enthusiasm I always showed when I go to church when I was a kid. We finished and I told my cousin to go back to the hotel. We arrived back to Dann Carlton and there were two guys that we saw in Phase II with a gorgeous tall busty girl from Phase II. They were checking her in.

We go to our room but 20 minutes later my cousin got the munchies so we decided to go down to a street food seller near the hotel. We go down to the lobby and there were the guys and the lady again. They accused the girl of stealing money inside the room. When we go out the hotel two police guys arrived. We got to the food place but they were closing. Back to the hotel we saw the lady giving money back to the guys in front of the police so apparently the story ended well to the guys.

My cousin and I ordered two juicy burgers with fries room service. Really great burgers, not over expensive. That way we ended our first Medellin part of the trip.

TINDER. I received multiple Tinder girl requests. Most girls were straight to the point stating they were prepagos and requesting from 150 k to 200 k. I got a few numbers just in case. Medellin is a city I like a lot, it has a pleasant climate just the way I like it, lots of pretty girls, very nice people, we had a nice touristic first part of our trip. Next day we moved to Cartagena were we got more into mongering and things got weird, funny, unexpected and risky. Cartagena extensive report and final fun day in Medellin report coming in the next few days. (With pictures).

Yes, you will be able to get another airbnb apartment, but only from hosts who accept sex tourists.

Hey guys,

Wondering if any one of you all had a problem like this, I went a while back to Colombia and stayed at a nice apartment in Bogota, it was a 2 bedroom with 4 people capacity as I rented all for my self and my buddy. The host rules never mentioned anything of me not being allowed to bring guests, but in the second night I did bring 2 pros to the apartment, the apartment had a security system and a portero, girls registered their ids everything was good, but I got a call from the host as I was banging the chick saying that I had to leave the apartment at that instant, she said she got a call from the security guard telling her that I brought hookers over and she was not happy about it, I complied of course, left, ended up staying at a hotel with the pro, next day I met with the host and she gave me in cash the remaining days I had booked her apartment for. However the problem is that she left a very unpleasant review, labelling me a sex tourist saying that I got 2 prostitutes from the most dangerous barrio (they were prepagos BTW) and yeah, saying I was a terrible guest therefore in spite that nothing in her home was broken, it was tended to, I never disrespected the host, so yeah with that being said will I be able to get another apartment through airbnb or did she royally screw me for me to use that app ever again? I have a total pf 3 reviews, the other 2 are positive so this is my negative but its the one that stands out, wondering if any of you guys have ever had this issue before and how you all went about it.

I doubt that review will have an effect with hosts who allow guests. I always tell a host what I plan regarding guests and ask if that is permissible. If, in fact, there is nothing in the listing regarding guests, I would initiate a dispute in airbnb about the review. Some of the listings don't specifically say "no guests", but will have wording that says that between the lines. If it says the building is occupied by local families and they must be respected, that pretty much gives the host grounds to enforce "no prostitutes".

I have stayed at dozens of airbnb apartments in Medellin and never had a problem like that. But I usually pay for an extra guest if there is a charge for an extra person and if they ask. I tell them I have girlfriends that spend the night. At any rate. I always book the apartment for two.

And I would never share an apartment with another monger. Just too much traffic and if they don't know what they are doing could bring in an [CodeWord902] chick or drugged out nut case or one that will steal your shit. Into the apartment.

I don't know if you can comment on her comment on airbnb. But I would deny that your friends where prepagos and point out that she didn't say guests weren't allowed in the apartment profile. How the hell would she know what they were unless they were low class street walkers. And if they were. You should have been staying at a 35 mill a night hotel in el centro. Instead of a nice apartment in a nice building.

Security guard didn't fuck him. He fucked himself.

AirBnB is much different from a hotel. The owner is usually known in the building, they have neighbors to worry about and complaints to deal with, even if the guest doesn't cause any problems. If it's a good building in an estrato 6 neighborhood the neighbors don't want prepagos in the building. They don't want their kids around it. There's also the issue of bringing an estrato 2 or 3 girl to an estrato 6 building. Unless she's there to clean the people believe she doesn't belong in their neighborhood.

That's why you ask before you book.

It's also a good idea, if you have a question about Bogota, to post about it in the Bogota thread.

Spot on advice. Many apartments are not allowed to even rent or operate a Airbnb in the building so this could put the owner in a very bad situation.

TTM.

Hey I'm sure this was covered at one point or another but I'm too lazy to dig into previous posts. Can you walk into any pharmacy and just buy viagra no questions asked? How much are they going for?

Since you took much longer to write that than using the "search" function above this page, I'd say that simple "lazy" does not apply here. We are dealing with something different.

You can buy Viagra at some pharmacies, but why buy it when you can get the generic sildenafil (sildenafilo, in spanish) for a fraction of the cost. 50 MG pills costs 30 to 50 cents each, and are available over the counter with no questions asked. I have found the best price at the pharmacy just outside Park Lleras, across calle 10 from Mondongo's restaurant.
