That place looks freaking nice all new and only 50 a night. Is it girl friendly is the question.

I went and tested it out beginning of March 2018. Nice place, I opted for the suite with the hot tub (and my dumb ass didn't use it but once). Booked through booking.com for 2 guests. Brought 5 chicas over my 4 day stay, got charged for two of them at 70,000 COP each, which didn't bother me. Clean rooms, chill neighborhood with grocery, food, ATM, Luna lunera within walking distance.

I am looking at staying at an airbnb at either the blux or energy buildings in Poblado. The airbnbs have no issues with guests. Has anyone stayed at either?

Yes. There are no issues.

It's just behind the Hotel Nutribara across from the main square, Plaza Botero in El Centro Medellin, kind of a rough neighborhood at night but very busy and active in the day. It is in the same block where the airport buses start and end the Centro route, so $3 ride from airport to 100 feet from hotel. You want a double room for two people so they don't mind you taking chicas up to your room. It is a 15 story hotel with a bar on the roof with great views (open from noon to 9 p), $26 a night for a double, they will bring you a mini fridge and fan if you ask, has 43" flat screen, hot water and walk-in shower, Yakusa brothel right across the street and 4 Strip Club / brothels with in a block a and a half and 2 blocks to 2 redlight blocks where the chicas start at $10.

I don't really recommend El Centro to Latin big city newbies who don't speak any Spanish.

I take my laptop every time, each floor has wifi, if it goes down just go out in the hall by the elevator and the wifi box is up on the wall, just unplug and replug it, worked after that.

When you check in ask for a room 10th floor or higher for the view, ask for the backside of the hotel opposite the lobby entrance as they are cooler in the AM and better view. Tell them you need a mini fridge and also tip them to bring you a fan.

When you get to the airport as you step outside you will see these mini-buses, they are 9,500 p ($3 or so), it's a hour ride to the city depending on traffic. Ask for the "auto-pista to Centro" route bus that ends behind the hotel Nutibara. The buses say "Combuses SA" on the side. Their last stop is 100 ft from the hotel Botero, just past it same side street. When out if cabbies don't know where the Botero is tell them behind the Hotel Nutribara where the airport buses are.

The closest brothel is "Yakusa", right across the street, a hair right behind a mirrored door and open early stays open very late, like 4 am on weekends, should be 45 k to take the girl to your room for 1/2 HR, the rooms they have suck. They only have 3 to 6 girls on but it is worth peeking in as the girls come and go.

With street girls remember to ask to see their ID "cedula" and make sure they are 18+ to keep out of a Colombian prison.

Closest safe ATM, go out hotel, right, end street, cross and head left a little, stairs up to restaurant "La Raza" in the back of hotel Nutribara, go thru into hotel, go right, then right, 2 ATM's, the Banco Colombia one has a better rate but a $200 (600 K) limit.

Closest 24 HR good / cheap food, go out hotel right to corner, go right to corner, called BrasaPan.

Closest grocery store go out right to corner, go right, go left next street (under the Metro) on left down stairs to store, called "Tiendas D1".

1st two Strip club / brothels, go out lobby, right. Then left, 2 blocks on left are Maracaibo and Barra Ejectiva, right next door to each other, girls around 80 k on site, 50 k exit fee to take girl to your hotel after making deal with girl, Barra Ejectiva is the busier bar with more girls, but worth peeking in Maracaibo.

Other OK club, go out lobby, right, then right, next left, then cross over right under metro line, stay on right side street down to corner, called Conejitas (means "Little Bunnies" but they mean "Playmates") also 80 k or so on site, none of the clubs have a cover so I usually go in and out from 5 p till 2 a or so to check the talent, which comes and goes. You will pass another club with stairs leading down to it same block, Grill Nueva Avenida but it is small and very hot. In Conejitas if it is hot try to get the tables along back wall, some of them are under air conditioning vents.

Since I have been talking about it here are usually a few gringos staying there you can hit the clubs with, we had 5 or 6 of us there on my last stay.

I book it thru Hotels.com which was cheaper then my buds who used Booking.com.

Here's my map of the adult fun in the area of the hotel, ignore the redlight block around Parque Bolivar as they are mostly not females.

When you going?

I did not knew that, will try to get booking there otherwise I have to start looking other places since this is my first time.

[JanuaryNineth]

Why do you want to be near the Mansion if you aren't staying there, generally, you can't go there if you aren't staying there.

[Manizales911]

Looking for hotel / places to stay that are chica friendly.

I am thinking about Mansion but they are usually booked. Any places near Mansion?

Or any suggestions are welcome.

Would anyone recommend Leblon suite hotel over this one? I just can't decide.

I hear Leblon is guest friendly also.

Thanks,

M.

It is a chica friendly hotel. I was there late January and had no issues. Hotel doesn't offer much though. Just breakfast. No pool nor gym. Decent location.

Room is ok, they supply only 2 bath towels so I had to call for fresh ones almost daily.

[IamLookin]

Reports in this thread from others say it is chica friendly if you book for two. Keep the question simple. Ask them if you are allowed to have locals visit you; and, if so, is there an additional charge.

I know some do because Hawaii Suites is listed on Hotels.com for $30 a night, also very near the downtown zone, closer then 3 the suites.

https://www.hotels.com/ho563056/?q-c...=5&ZSX=0&SYE=3

So I took a look at their website (Hawaii Suites), and didn't like the quality of the rooms much, except for the one with the round red bed! The other place (3 D Suites) hasn't answered me as of yet except that one time with the rates on their website but no weekly rates. So I decide to stay in Hotel Botero for half my trip, for the sake of convenience (right in the heart of all the fun! And the rest of my trip will be in Hotel 47 Medellin Street. This way I can scout it and see how good it is. This definitely saved me some plata, but the main reason is that I'll be meeting a couple of Colombian Cupid girls. The one I like I can take back to luxurious Deluxe VIP suite with hot tub! Plus, I called them again today and they backed down on the chica fee, saying its 25 k now, rather than 50 k like they told me 10 days ago! Made sure to take the name of the employee that provided the info and made sure she understands that I will be taking care of her as well.

I will report how this goes. This hotel is less than 10 minutes walking distance from the centro action, less than 5 minutes taxi ride, and a bit closer to Poblado.
