There is a lower cost Centro style casa just next door to Energy. It is to the right of Energy if you are facing Energy. I don't remember if there is a bell or you have to knock but I do remember it takes a bit of time for them to answer the door.
[QUOTE=FunLuvr;2701175]Fantasy Energy is close (Cra. 74 #101-49). Zandalay and New Life are downtown.[/QUOTE]
I think knowledge of Spanish is over emphasized quite a bit on this website. Yes it is of course helpful but not indispensable. That said, I agree 100% that no one should, or has to, get themselves in a situation where they are desperate to find someone who speaks English to hold their dick for them.
[QUOTE=Osteoknot;2700998]You don't speak the native language, didn't plan your finances, and you were in a developing country where Internet and Wifi is known to be spotty.
I guess if you were getting mad at yourself, then it would make more sense but still a nonproductive strategy.
Attitudes like yours don't help the image these people already have about Gringos.[/QUOTE]
Hey all,
Been lurking for quite some time and thanks to all of your tips I decided to take a quick trip to Medellin! I'll be there Jun 2 - 6 staying in Orange Suites. It'll be my first time and I'm doing mostly the FB route, though would be cool to hit up the casas. Would be cool to meet up with you more experienced guys while there. I'm fluent in Spanish BTW. Thanks for sharing so much info on here!
I'm wondering about buying a 'throw away'/ prepaid phone while down there so I don't have to worry about carrying around my new expensive smartphone around. I imagine there are stores that sell them. Anyone know of any? Thanks again for all the info!
I hope this is going to devolve into a war of scary links. Mr. Moderator, please get us back on topic.

[QUOTE=Nclpimp;2701137]Geishas. Near el estadio.[/QUOTE]Never heard of Geishas, what is the address?
Entergy is a good casa near the stadium.
[QUOTE=GianniVersace;2701096]What are the best p4 p casas near San Peter Apartment in Laureles besides Zandalay and New Life? Or are there any other must see p4 p casa's near by that are also must see.[/QUOTE]Luna Lunera is in Laureles, was 150 k / hour last time I was there.
[QUOTE=Myslo;2701177]Hi all,
First time in Medellin and reading all the reports, it sounds like Gusto and La Isla are safe-ish bets as far quality goes. I like 'you get what you see' option, but I'm more of a fan of partying at home, so is there an option of taking a girl out of there for a few hours for an additional fee? Maybe there are other places where this is an option and offering similar quality?
Many thanks.[/QUOTE]Just grab their numbers and hit them up the next day, you are already paying a premium just for simply meeting them at gustos or La Isla.
[QUOTE=Plan77;2701142]... The problem was that I could not walk to unicentro mall without a working phone. And I could not order uber because of no wifi.[/QUOTE]Maybe you can share info how you get the sim card to help others. Most people just withdraw COP from ATM.
Like Mr E mentioned, I don't remember being able to get early check-in. I personally will drop my luggage and walk or take Metro to Plaza Botero to spend the day there just sightseeing. There is a WOM store with staff speaking English next to the white church that you can get a SIM card from as well. You probably can even pay by card. Card is also accepted by the outdoor museum cafe.
[QUOTE=Nounce;2701370]Maybe you can share info how you get the sim card to help others. Most people just withdraw COP from ATM.[/QUOTE]Exchanging money and getting sim is easy actually. Take a 5 K taxi ride from SP to Unicentro Mall. The claro store is right in front. One has to pay 7 K for the sim to a guy who will set it up. Recharge is another 7 K, paid to cashier. Takes 10 minutes or so overall. I found many guys selling sims on CR 70 next to SP but they can not recharge. There is a valucell shop across SP on cr 70 but it opens a bit late and closes before 8 PM.
Plenty of cambios to change money on 2nd floor. But obviously it is better to just with draw from ATM. There is a cambio near SP, towards estadio on CR 70. Just next to subway restaurant.
[QUOTE=PseudoGene;2701329]"One thing guys need to mention more often at this forum is that San Peter now had a very busy, American-run bar right next to reception. SP is now as good as Hotel M."
I never stayed at San Peter. But the presence of the bar seems interesting. Can I meet or pick up the chicas from there? Can anyone elaborate on that, please?[/QUOTE]I was in San Peter two weeks ago. Yes the bar is nice and the food is good. The owner is a great guy and its overall a fun hangout place if you want to be around some fellow Americans. With that said, I was there 4 or five nights over my stay and the only women I saw there were the bartenders. Not once did I see any girls hanging out looking for fun. Maybe it was just an off week but I doubt it because t was the same on my last trip. Great place, but not a place to pick up girls.
[QUOTE=Plan77;2701381]... I found many guys selling sims on CR 70 next to SP but they can not recharge. ...[/QUOTE]Actually, they will point you the place to recharge probably just across the street. The SIM is 5 K from them. Or just go to the Ganas store show them the SIM you just bought to recharge. This process although easy but maybe a little more complicated for the first timer. That is why I asked your method.
My comment about getting money is because you seem to not have the flexibility with how you can get COP from your post
If she cuts it to shoulder length, which is her plan, she can sell her hair for 250 mil COP. To buy it on the other end costs over one million, another 200.000 to have it installed. You can buy the fake, polyester hair for one-third the price. Obviously, there is no comparison between the real hair and the fake shit sheds like crazy. The human hair is so prized that my Numero Uno Novia was attacked and they ripped the human hair extensions out of her head. I don't know how, but a couple of weeks later, she got her hair back.
I promised to see the chica in these fotos twice a week at Fair Market Value if she didn't cut it until after I left. So far so good.
Her ass crack looks dirty but it's just pigmented or stained. She wouldn't let me go near her ass when I first had her, now she asks for it. That and foot massages.

Across the intersection, there is Monterrey Mall. It is primarily an electronics mall. You should be able to find some cheap phones there, and also providers to sell a sim card and register the phone. Take a copy of your passport with you (necessary for registering).
[QUOTE=Mtndew704;2701364]Luna Lunera is in Laureles, was 150 k / hour last time I was there.[/QUOTE]Was at Loutron last week, 350 k was the damage. But there were 10-12 beautiful tall women parading in front of me and opening their white lab coats. Underneath was see through lingerie. Of the 12 girls, probably 6 had silicone and I prefer naturale. Some had tattoos, but most were very beautiful, ranging from 7 to 9 out of 10. Everyone should have this experience once in a lifetime. I selected a slim brunette with naturals and she did not disappoint; however she wanted to upcharge in the room for kissing, DATY and BBBJ. I politely declined, it still was worth the cost. The Loutron mansion in Las Palmas is a huge house with about 6 bedrooms and parking lot security man. In the center of the mansion, near the business desk are a couple of soft spots in the floor, try to find them when you pay, they need some solid floor support there. Otherwise a solid visit.
[QUOTE=RamDavidson84;2701140]Thanks for reply. I have never been to centro, but have to Medellin at least 4 times I think. So from 8-11 pm, how dangerous is Centro? I have read to never roll solo after dark there. Is it worth the risk? How long does it take to get from Poblado to Centro around 8 pm?[/QUOTE]Well, Centro can be dangerous at night if you don't know where your going BUt the area where these clubs are is a very small area and busy, so you would have to be very unlucky for anything untoward to occur. You can walk between them all in 2-3 minutes along a quite busy street. You can taxi in from Poblado in 8-10 minutes, then taxi out again. Just stand by the doorman when you leave and look for a taxi, he will surely help if need be. I usually stay at Nutibara, and they are all easy walkign from there, even at 11 pm. That's why I like Centro. Everything is easy walking, and so many options. Day and night.
The strip of bars on Walking Street are better late afternoon-early evening. I would say 8 pm is last orders down there. When you arriving? If you give me some warning, I will give you a guided tour. And I promise not to talk politics all night. Hehe.
