Another La Rambla warning
Sorry to hear about herpes man, that is so sad.
atErik, these are addresses to brothels. I have never been to any such places before. I liked it, though I also would like to chat a bit first. These brothels you are greeted by an older women who shows you to a waiting room. None of the times I visited the two brothels there were other men visible. Then the ladies walk in one by one, greet you with hola que tal and blow a kiss on each side of your face (close to your cheek, some may even kiss you on your cheeks). It is quite nice. As they walk out they tell you their stage name. Very very hard to remember all the names so focus, repeat each name to yourself as they say it, easier to remember then. After all girls have been presented the madam comes back and asks which one you prefer. They don't like it if you say number 4 or if you ask for another walk-in. Nobody can remember which was the fourth girl to walk in and greet you.
You are then shown to a room and you are told the girl will be right with you. She comes in with lube, condom, blanket and 2 towels. There is a shower in the room and a large bed. She puts a new blanket over the bed. You are asked if you want beer or water. Arizala you get bottled water, Maragall I got a glass of ice water. When your time is up there will be a short knock on the door, you better finish quickly after that or not at all. I would say take a quick shower first even if you (naturally!) just took a shower at your hotel. That will show her that you are definitely clean and she can easier relax with you and probably will not hesitate to skip the condom when doing blow job.
Please know that some brothels are only open during day time to early evening, like maybe 8pm. I'm guessing that is because the entrance door automatically locks at some time and then you will not be able to get in. Arizala though is open 24 hours and I bet there are more 24 hour brothels. Maragall is not open 24 hours as I understood it and it makes sense when I think about the entrance door.
Now, La Rambla. Please listen to all the warnings! Do not go there. It is such a waste! Yes. 20EUR for a blow job in a back alley may seem like a good idea at some point! It is not. How can you relax. And she will absolutely try to take more money from you somehow even when giving blow job she will try to sell something more. You cannot walk alone on La Rambla, you WILL be stopped every 10m by 1-2 girls at a time. The will hold you, grab your balls and it can be quite hard to get away, they hold you hard and to get free you will have to use some muscles. Some will even start searching your pockets. If you happen to get lured to a room, it will be a very dirty room, very shabby and you will have to charge for the room. 5EUR, they will try to get 10EUR for the room, but it is 5!
Another thing with the Rambla girls is that they are not welcome into hotels. Either rent an apartment hotel or get a hotel with no 24 hour reception. If there is a 24 hour reception the Rambla girl will not get in. Some will accept it if the girl has a valid I'd, many of these girls do not have a valid I'd. All the Rambla girls I saw were black. They are from different African countries. I like black women so I spoke to a few of them, just because women don't usually come up to me like that, it was fun. If the police see you talking to one of them they will come and interrupt, break you up, but that is all. You will see them working around La Playa Catalunya as well.
So really! Stay away from those, such a waste of time and money! And I am not the first one to say this. I am just a curious person so I had to find out for myself all the warnings I read were right, I know that now.
I don't know about bringing girls from these brothels to your hotel. Some may accept it, some will not I guess.
