Medellin Reports

[PolloNegro]

Breakfast in Medellin sucks. So far I have eaten in Nutibara, Dorado La 70 and Vivre. All breakfasts are equally bad and the latter 2 hotels are rated 4. 5 of 5 at google reviews. Those people that did the reviews must never have tried a breakfast in an european hotel. They will also complain if you go a second round to get more food. In europe it is always buffet style. How much do I need to spend on a hotel in Medellin to get same quality breakfast as in europe with buffet style? In Brazil the hotel breakfasts are much better then here and it is buffet style and that is hotel for half price of what I pay here.

By the way noone mentioned hotel Vivre in the thread so I did not know if it was girl friendly but they confirmed and they also accept venezuelan ID cards.

The European Breakfast, come on now, this is becoming ridiculous! LOL. Pollo Negro is out!

Yesterday was an odd day. After two cancellations in the afternoon, I moved ahead my night appointment for earlier around 6. I had been working these Facebook girls over the last couple of days, and thought eventually I would hit gold, but instead I got hit with reality.

Want to guess my 6 o'clock girl's name? You got it, it was Camila. So this will be Camila #2. She is a 20 year old 1. 70 m tall, about 105 lbs with a pretty face all natural, great smile. She arrived at San Peter Apartments, where I stayed before moving to El Poblado, and then the reception calls saying she can't come up because she's banned in the building, WTF? The lady asked if I could come down. I come down prepared to send the girl away, but as I got out the elevator and take a look, guess what I did? Yup, I let the little head decide. She had a good seedula, but I guess she had an issue with a client before. We went around the block to a motel. I was rock hard since I saw her, this young beauty had to be mine. I get a short term room for 50 mil, clothes come off and she is the bomb. BBFS? Not free, she asked for 200 mil more, I said only if I'll have you for multiple pops, she declined so on goes the hat. At this point I make it a point to pound hard, DFK, BBBJ (she tried to upsell but I got it free because the motel, so not free) 69, CG, K9, etc. After 20 min of making love I take a break to turn on the AC, she says we are done, you finished! I tried to argue I haven't and showed her the condom, no dice. I got very upset and told her whatever, you could've made more money treating me right and seeing me more during my trip. I paid her and we leave. Lesson learned, walk away when things are not right. 250 mil plus 50 motel.

After dinner, I get a message from Camila #1, surely she wants to make love to me and complete our unfinished business. I tell her to come over but I don't want to talk much l, just spend about 2 hours banging since I got no release earlier. She agrees and shows up about an hour later. She still wants to be talkative, I give her a beer and eventually we are in bed, she's great at kissing, but her highlight is the BBBJ, very good with deep throat, DATY was just ok this time, but to my displeasure she didn't like 69. We had great action and I pop while doing lazy dog. It was great to finally release. She showers, and I'm thinking we will start round two soon, but nope. She dresses up and says she only does one pop, but that she can stay awhile talking and drinking. Righttttt. I tried to cut my losses, having already learned from earlier to just move on. I simply told her I felt deceived, I explicitly asked her before showing for more sex, but she lied. I finally hinted that it was late and it was best for her to go, she seemed upset and said I was kicking her out, I really was.

As I much as I hate to, I will have to start clarifying and being very specific about services I want over text. Still no guarantees though. These girls don't understand how to sell you a experience, they're not good actors like Brazilians. Medellin continues to fall behind in the race for me, but I'm hopeful Poblado can salvage my trip.

Food is getting better, Voraz in Laureles has good steak, and Dandr in Poblado a good Desayuno Paisa.

San Peter is good for a short stay, but it's not a place I would pick for more than 2-3 days. If I come back to Laureles I will visit and stay the area near Segundo Parque de Laureles, it's much better, a bit more upscale and plenty of locals.

Breakfast in Medellin sucks. Those people that did the reviews must never have tried a breakfast in an european hotel.

Dann carlton has a good spread. But really, if you want a European breakfast, the best place to go is Europe. Its like,. If I wanted congee I would go to China or SE Asia. I would feel a bit crazy if I complained about the lack if croissants and cheese at a hotel in China.

Stocking up on some cash today!

Majority of these local hotels will have same type of breakfast (scrambled eggs and tomato, arepas with cheese, and coffee / hot chocolate), unless you go with international brand hotel like marriott, ihg, hilton, etc. , where they will provide buffet style.

Honestly none of them are that good, but I've found the Sheraton and Marriott to be the best. At least they include a made to order omelet and multiple fresh juices as part of the breakfast buffet offering.

I have to agree with you that the breakfast at Hotel Dorado la 70 is very poor. They contract out the restaurant and pay the contractor for the tickets which you need to acquire to get your "free breakfast". The coffee sucks too which is a near impossibility in Colombia.

I stay at the Dorado and just go out for breakfast. There are dozens of really fine places to go that are not very far away. Of course, if you need a buffet so you can 3 or 4 servings, well, I can't help you with that.

Colombia isn't the place to go for buffets. Hotel Du Park Royale used to have a breakfast buffet, but I don't know how it compares to Brazil or Europe. Also, I believe most people rate hotels on things other than the quality or quantity of the free breakfast. "No hot water and there was a dead cow in my bed, but the breakfast was incredible. 5 stars."

Personally I almost never eat the hotel free breakfasts. If I am staying at a hotel and want a really good breakfast, I go to a restaurant famous for their breakfasts. Better yet, I stay at an apartment and cook whatever breakfast I want. Hotel breakfasts are an afterthought, a cheap offering for people who aren't too picky and are willing to sacrifice quality for convenience.

The most important thing is that Colombia is not in Europe and it's not in Brazil. If you want a European or Brazilian hotel breakfast, you should have gone to Europe or Brazil.

You're probably going to be disappointed at the scarcity of tall, blonde, eastern European hookers too.

Escort agencies in Colombia are probably the least popular way to monger.

I don't even know WTF is an escort agency. Is that like a Ford Dealership?

Shortly before my work schedule change, I was informed of the change and that I would be off for 5 days due to the change and the holiday. First thought; a quick trip to Medellin. However with flight schedules, I would lose a day in travel time. Next I considered having my girlfriend* meet me in Miami, but again flight schedules weren't cooperating. Finally, I decided it was best to bring her to me. I was able to get her into town 6 hours before my final, short, work trip. That gave us 6 days together, instead of 4.

Some of you are probably thinking I made a huge, expensive mistake, and you may be right. Certainly it was expensive. A $30 hotel room in Medellin costs $120 or more here. Add food, parking and gas and it's going to cost a lot. In my eyes, no mistake was made, because I enjoyed myself.

Except for a couple of nasty looks, one from a woman who couldn't arouse a blind man who had abstained from sex for 10 years, and another from a guy who was offended that a girl would choose me over his gym muscles and hair plugs, everything went great. Here are some of the things which she really enjoyed:

1. The food. From the breaded tenderloin sandwich which is our response to bandeja paisa, to biscuits and gravy, to the Chicago deep dish pizza from an iconic restaurant in downtown Chicago, to the fresh Wisconsin cheese curds, she loved it all.

2. The Soak City Waterpark at King's Island. Unfortunately, the only bikini she brought was the Wicked Weasel I bought her earlier this year. Since the sight of her in that wet bikini would have caused 2 stampedes, 1 of women dragging their children away and 1 of men getting a closer look, I had to buy something a bit more appropriate for the area.

3. Chicago. Downtown Chicago is one of my favorite places. The view from the top of Willis tower, the architecture, the view of Lake Michigan from Millennium Park and of course the food, make it a great place to take a girl, if the weather cooperates.

4. The scenery and especially my house. We did a lot of driving between cities and this is a good time of year for that. My house is in the country, surrounded by fields and trees, muy tranquilo. Plus there are cows next door, who were curious about the pretty girl talking to them in Spanish.

5. The climate. When we were driving it was mostly sunny. At the Waterpark it was hot, but with a nice breeze. In Chicago it was a cool, cloudy day, which made walking around comfortable. Wisconsin (which ended up being just a place to sleep, eat and buy fresh cheese curds) was sunny and comfortable. Only the county fair we visited was a bit muggy, but a light sprinkle helped.

6. The people. Most people were nice and friendly and several women remarked on how beautiful she was (women's opinion of beauty is more reliable than men's). Even our conversations in Spanish didn't raise any eyebrows.

7. Her favorite experience was watching the most American of all pastimes; a demolition derby. Willful destruction for entertainment purposes, you can't get more American than that. It hadn't been on my list of things to do, but it just happened to be scheduled at the county fair most convenient to my home.

Every place has certain habits which are ingrained in the population. How hard are these habits to break?

1. Putting toilet paper in the trash can. I only had to mention once that the toilet paper went into the toilet and she had no problem altering her behavior.

2. Closing car doors gently. No luck with this one. Even with my example to follow and being told several times, she couldn't bring herself to close the door firmly.

In my eyes, it was a great experience and I'll probably do it again.

Almost at 4,200 COP to the USD today according to the published visa exchange rate. Going to hit the ATM's today, and might be kicking myself if the rate goes up to 4,300 COP in the next week. Up until the election the exchange rate has been somewhat like a gyro going up and then dropping down 300-400 Pesos within a few weeks. When the Peso exchange rate hit 4,000 I hit the ATM's and then it dropped back down. When the Peso exchange rate hit 4,100 I hit the ATM's and then it dropped. So now that the exchange rate is basically at 4,200 I'm going to hit the ATM' s and see how it goes.

Its only going to get better.

By the way noone mentioned hotel Vivre in the thread so I did not know if it was girl friendly but they confirmed and they also accept venezuelan ID cards.

Go to the Hotel Mediterraneo, La 70.

You might want to give that another day. The xe.com mid market live tracking has the dollar well north of 4200 as of midday. It is trending higher against the dollar since trading opened today:

1 USD = 4,261.06 COP.

But lately, this forum is full of reports that are not helpful. I get all of you guys are trying to get the most females, or are trying to save a few bucks, or are trying to grab a few facebook girls. I get it. It's a pissing competition.......

When I read these words I thought to myself. AHA! another trip report like the one by Everythingblue, but I was disappointed.
